Automated reasoning in geometry is available in various software tools for several years, mostly in prover packages. In this paper we pay our attention to a non-trivial presence of a geometry prover in the software tool GeoGebra Discovery [4, 5] that aims at reaching secondary schools with its intuitive user interface. Most importantly, we give a report on a STEM/STEAM project that was discussed in a group of prospective mathematics teachers at the Private University College of Education of the Diocese of Linz in Upper Austria during the winter semester 2022/23, in the frame of a course that focuses on exploiting technology in mathematics education (36 students in 2 working groups). This project consisted of several other experiments that were already communicated by the second author. The discussed activity, a detailed study of the movement of a rocking camel, is however, completely new. Also, some major improvements in the underlying software tool (implemented by the second author with a substantial help of the students' feedback), makes it much easier to model similar project setups and conclude mathematical knowledge in an automated way.
