This research aimed to study the influence of applying GeoGebra to the instruction in congruence of triangles on the learning achievement and learning motivation of the eighth-grade students. It applied both qualitative and quantitative methods. The subjects of this research were 96 eighth-grade students from two classes at a private junior high school in Tainan City. At the end of the instruction, the grades in “the Mathematics Learning Achievement Test of Congruence of Triangles” and “Scale of Mathematics Learning Motivation” were analyzed with SPSS 21.0. Besides, semi-structured interviews were carried out and analyzed in order to provide supportive interpretation, comprehend the feedback and feelings of students and the implementation difficulties of teachers. The research results are as follows: On one hand, the experimental group made a significant difference in their learning achievement in the congruence of triangles.On the other hand, the experimental group made a significant difference in their learning motivation. Learning with GeoGebra makes students understand the congruence of triangles more easily, reinforce the motivation and interests of learning math for students, and improves the grades for the middle-level and low-level students.The majority of the experimental group enjoy using the GeoGebra-based computer-assisted instruction. |
