Mathematic connections through scientific prezi and lectora inspire

Abstract

The low quality of students in mathematical connections requires learning processes using technology-based. The purpose of the study was to analyze the ability of mathematical connections between students learning scientific based on prezi, lectora-inspire and conventional learning. This study used a quasi-experimental method and a nonequivalent control group design. Involving a sample of 84 students from three senior high school classes which were divided into an experimental group and a control group as a test instrument for mathematical connection ability. The data analysis uses independent T-test, one way ANOVA, and post hoc least square differences test. The finding is that there are differences in the improvement and achievement of mathematical connection skills between students who carry out prezi-based scientific learning, better than students who have lectora-inspiration based learning and conventional learning. Prezi and lectora-inspire scientific learning facilitates students interaction processes to construct concepts, find problems, apply media, and reflect processes so that it can improve students mathematical connection abilities.
