Abstract
In this paper, the authors summarize their experience using GeoGebra during an intensive, one-week course (i.e., ``learning week''). High school students engaged in collaborative problem-solving activities and explorations involving the limits and derivatives of elementary functions and function graphs. The ``hide and show'' features of GeoGebra were used to conceal (and reveal) analytic function forms from students. The final assessment and evaluation test suggests that GeoGebra is a useful tool in the study of function and calculus concepts.
