MEMANFAATKAN MICROSOFT WORD 2007 SEBAGAI MEDIA PEMBELAJARAN GEOMETRI DI SMP BY MARSIGIT

Reviewed by Mira Rahmawati (09301244016) Pendidikan Matematika Swadana

 Utilizing the facilities in Microsoft Office 2007, we can develop a learning medium geometry in junior high. Media learning geometry in junior high is an implication of the translation Standard Competence and Basic Competence is related to the ability of geometric, as follows:

1.      Understanding the relationship line to line, line with an angle, corner angle, and determine its size

2.      Understand the concept of a rectangle and a triangle and determine its size

3.      Using the Pythagorean Theorem in problem solving

4.      Determine the elements, the circle and size

5.      Understanding the properties of the cube, beam, prism, pyramid, and their parts, and determine its size

6.      Understanding unvarying flat wake and its use in problem solving

7.      Understanding the properties of the tubes, cones and spheres, as well as determine its size.

Skills to wake up the foundations of geometry using Microsoft Word 2007 facilities can be developed to make the wake-up more complex geometries, such as wake-up 3-dimensional geometry. Skills can be enhanced to study aspects of the geometry with a higher standard of competence, for example, to determine the value of phi.

·         Use of Microsoft Word 2007 is easy to do by the teacher because the software is contained in almost every new computer generation.

·         Use of Microsoft Word 2007 will add to the motivation and pleasure in learning geometry.

·         Students can use Microsoft Word 2007 to study the geometry either independently or through collaboration.

·         By using Microsoft Word 2007, students can conduct an investigation or inquiry of geometry concepts.

·         By using Microsoft Word 2007, students can perform activities of problem solving or mathematical problem solving.

·         By using Microsoft Word 2007, students can communicate the results to both the teacher and to other friends.
