Abstract


Learning media is a help assistant for students to understand mathematics concept. Sometimes textbooks are very boring and not interesting therefore an innovation using a technology based media is needed. This research aims to make a learning media to improve students’ ability on the topic of trigonometry. The learning process will use hawgent dynamic mathematic software as a mathematics learning media. The problems that we are going to find out through this research are 1) can developing a learning media such as hawgent dynamic mathematic software improve students’ mathematical ability? and 2) did the student show a positive response in the learning process when using hawgent dynamic mathematic software? This research will use the ADDIE method. The target of this research are 30 high school students. The instruments use for this research are the cognitive test, interview and observation. According to the research result, there is an improvement in the students’ mathematical ability for trigonometry when using hawgent dynamic mathematic software. This means that the implementation of hawgent dynamic mathematic software in the learning process is successful. Students are more active and enthusiastic in class. In conclusion, developing hawgent dynamic mathematic software can improve the students’ mathematical ability in trigonometry as students’ show positive response when the learning process is helped by hawgent.
