Introduction
Students'worksheets are important learning tools that can facilitate teachers in delivering material, and make the students more easily understand the material to practice in a structured and independent manner [1]. But now, due to the impact of the spread of the Covid-19 pandemic, Indonesia must take various policies to reduce the transmission of the Covid-19 virus. One of the policiesin education site is makes the learning activity from home [2]. The learning activity is set to be explained through video conferences and another learning platform, with the hope that students and teachers can learn effectively in the Covid-19 pandemic.
Todays, the reality is the teachers and students face obstacles to use the learning tools which use technology [3]. They are not accustomed to the online learning and the have limited knowledge in using Information and Technology (IT). During the online learning in this pandemic, the teacher only gives assignments in the form of photographs from textbooks or taking screenshots from internet and then sent it through whatsapp groups. This kind of learning makes learning even meaningless. The lack of willingness and ability of teachers to provide learning assessment during the Covid-19 pandemic makes students tend to not interested in learning, especially in mathematics subject. This one way of teaching method makes the students are not engaged to the learning activity and become bored [4]. So we need a learning toolwhich can improve this condition. One application that can be used is a google form that can be shared with students or parents who already have a google account. Some of the benefits from Google Form are having a variety of tests such as, a description, a short essay or multiple choices. The attractive form display of Google form will also motivatestudents to learning, moreover it is free and the results can be automatically counted [5]. Google Form also provides the teacher to be able to make varied, interactive and innovative questions so it will be an attractive assignment for students.
Recentstudies on the use of Google Form have shown many benefits for students and lecturers to interactively receive send and manage assignments [6]. In addition, the use of questionnaires with Google Form is considered more accessible, efficient and attractive also saves the use of paper [7]. Further research on the use of Google forms in learning provides many benefits both in terms of efficiency, appearance and attractiveness so that it is easy to provide an assessment [8].the use of Google Form in learning evaluation activities provides impacts and benefits both from the aspects of effective, efficiency, attractiveness and appearance design. For teachers, it was greatly helped by the existence of Google Form in terms of cost, time, and energy. For students themselves become more interested, enthusiastic, active and not a negative thing to face the exam [9] Based on todays' reality that the school activity cannot be implemented in school, and recent researchers shows positive impact of the use of Google Form, so the researcher were analyzed the effectiveness of the worksheets with Google Form as an alternative of independent learning during the Covid-19 pandemic in Junior High School in Langsa Kota, Aceh.

Methods
The subjects of this study were all junior high school mathematics teachers in Langsa Kota are 10 mathematics teacher with 97 students and the object of this research was the effectiveness of students' mathematics learning using google form learning media. The type of research in this study is qualitative descriptive. The approach taken in this study is a qualitative and quantitative approach [10]. A qualitative approach is used to analyze the relationship between teacher and student and to express narratively with words about the phenomenon of student character in learning [11]. The questionnaire and observation sheet instruments were used in qualitative approach, while the quantitative approach is used to calculate the percentage of student learning independence and teacher interest in the field of study on the use of student worksheets assisted by Google forms.
The research procedures carried out in this study is composed of three stages, including the preparation stage, implementation stage and data analysis (explanation) stage [12]. Each of these stages is further explained in Table 1. Describing the data about the use of the worksheet The table 1 shows that the research procedures were initiated with observation by the researcher and accompanied with the college student to get the research license. The next steps is arrange the research instrument then validating it. In the implementation stage the researcher were accompanied by some of college students, do the observation, classify the data intensively, then administered the questionnaire. This questionnaire was used to measure students' responses to the google form worksheets. The last stage is analyzed the data and describe and arrange the research result.

Preparation stage
Preliminary observation were carried out by the research members assisted by several students to the take care of the research permit, then the preparation of instruments and validation of the observation sheet instruments were carried out by the researcher assisted by the research members

Implementation stage
At this stage researchers assisted members and several students make focused observation, classify data intensively, researchs also distributed questionnaires that had been prepared and validated beforehand, this questioner was used to see students' responses about student worksheets of mathematics or teaching materials used were the last scare researchers analizes data in accordance with data analysis techniques and then discribe and arrange research results.

Result
The data of independent learning were collected by using questionnaire through Google Form. The students were accessed the questionnaire by the link that sending by the researcher. The questionnaire is consist of 20 questions and the responses is used the Likert scale (1 for the lowest score and 4 for the highest score) [13], [14]. The result of students' independence of learning is tabulated in the table 2. The table 2 showed that most of the students' learning independent score were in the range of 50-54.The indicators of students' independence of learning were categorized into high, medium, and low by the following number [15]: high : y ≥ 59, medium 34 ≤ y < 59, and low< 34. The detailed results of student learning independence data were presented into table 3. From the table 3 it can be concluded that the students' independence of learning in Junior High School in Langsa Kota was categorized medium with the percentage 93%.  The table 4 reveals that most of the mathematics teachers are so interest in using students' worksheet with google form were each indicator shows more than 50% responses per category.

Product testing
Here are the result of the form worksheet by googleform after product testing. Figure 1 contains the front cover of the student worksheet starting with the motivation to keep smiling and enthusiastic, as well as an invitation to study. Figure 1 also contains instructions for filling out one's identity.   Figure 2 is a student worksheet that contains problems a ccompanied by steps on how to solve them, it can be seen that by using Google Form, students can be more interested in working on problems in terms of attractive appearance and completion steps that have been arranged in a structured and systematic manner. when students feel happy and interested in working on the problems it will foster interest and independence of student learning [16].

Conclusion
Based on the result of the study it can be concluded that the use of the Google Form worksheets could improve students' learning independence, stimulates students' learning interest, and increase teacher interest to be able to use the worksheets with Google Form in their classroom. The result of the test quuestionare were limited to 10 teachers and 97 students, with scoredis good more than 50% responses per category.
