The use of technology in learning geometry

Geometry is important material in mathematics, but some students still find it difficult to learn geometry. The teacher used technology to make it easier for students to learn geometry. The aim of this study is to describe the perception of junior high school students on technology in geometry learning. This type of study is a survey study. The population of study were 100 junior high school students in MTsN 1 Mataram, NTB, Indonesia. The data were taken from 3 to 4 December 2019. The data were collected by questionnaire. Data were analysed using quantitative descriptive methods. The results showed that most students were able to utilize technology in their daily lives. There are 57% of students who have experience learning geometry with technology. There are 67% of students utilizing technological devices for learning geometry and 66% of the devices students often use are smartphones. There are 56% of students who use learning technology such as a learning video. The data also shows that most students agree that learning geometry with technology can have a positive effect on geometry learning. From the results, teachers can also use technology more often to make it easier for students to learn geometry.
