The design of sketchup software-aided generative learning for learning geometry in senior high school

Abstract

Geometry learning needs to be observed by teachers and researchers because students often experience difficulties. At present, learning mathematics that utilizes technology is a challenge for them. This paper describes design of SketchUp software-aided generative learning for learning geometry about distance and angle in space in Senior High School. The data were collected from learning observation and interview with lecturers, teachers, and students. Its analyses were data display, data reduction, and drawing conclusion. Research prosedures were designing, validation, revising, conducting learning trial, and revising. It had produced the technical structures and descriptions of learning and learning instruments including SketchUp files supporting them and was ready to disseminate in larger students learning communities in senior high school.
