Mathematical reasoning in geometry learning using Information and Communication Technology (ICT)

Abstract

This study aims to analyze students' mathematical reasoning abilities in Geometry learning using ICT. This type of research uses descriptive qualitative with the intention to describe the students' mathematical reasoning abilities in Geometry learning using ICT. The subjects of the study were the students of class VIII chosen by purposive method. The research phase consists of planning, implementation and reporting phases. The main instrument in the study was to use a mathematical reasoning test. The results showed that in the learning of geometry by using ICT there are some indicators that can affect students' mathematical reasoning abilities. There are indicators of mathematical reasoning that cannot be achieved by students well, proven more than 50% of students achievement of mathematical reasoning ability is still under KKM. The indicator is to manipulate mathematics and provide reasons or evidence against some solutions.
