Abstract

The traditional tale of Cinderella is receiving new attention both online and off-line, thanks to innovative activities designed by teachers. Here, for example, the computer offers the learner various possibilities within the framework of special visualization software or dynamic geometry soft-ware to create an image of a situation for themselves and to deepen their own perception. Where the learner can acquire the vocabulary of a language, become static images or diagrams in combination with written Text is used, the text should be integrated into the picture or diagram. The paper starts from the primary hypothesis that with the help of the Cinderella program and visualization with the help of geometry, the lexicon of the language can be adopted, especially in adult education. The research was conducted in December 2022 among employees in Dublin who underwent a work education program with the Cinderella 1.4. Program. The results indicate a positive effect of the program on the acquisition of professional vocabulary for work needs. This research can be an example of how, with the help of geo-metric software, one can learn to adopt vocabulary from the profession, especially from mathematics, physics, construction, and engineering, especially in adult education in order to achieve sustainable development.
