The use of Geogebra software in teaching mathematics

Abstract

The development and presence of computer technology have opened opportunities and made it easy for many parties to use it in various aspects of life, including in the world of education, as a tool and means of supporting education. One computer program that can be used in mathematics learning is Geogebra software. Geogebra is a computer program to support teaching and learning mathematics subject, especially in geometry, algebra, and statistics. The various facilities provided by Geogebra software expect that it can be a great media to help its users visualise abstract geometric objects quickly, accurately, and efficiently. Furthermore, this article provides a brief description of Geogebra software as a medium for teaching mathematics. This article is library research. Here, the researcher uses the documentation method to collect data and then analyse the data gathered using content analysis. After analysed twelve related articles which revealed the advantages of using Geogebra in learning mathematics, it is found there are several significant results obtained. These findings, including Geogebra, ease students to comprehend geometry. Students also tend to be happier in learning geometry by using Geogebra, which operated by using a computer.
