Abstract

Students who experience anxiety can influence how these students to think, reason, and do actions to solve problems in mathematics subjects, especially about triangles. The solution used to reduce the level of mathematics anxiety of students is to use an information technology-based learning approach. The purpose of this study is to describe whether information technology-based learning and communication can reduce mathematics anxiety of grade 7 students. This classroom action research consists of two cycles with the initial stage of setting targets for achieving indicators of research success. The results showed that the average level of anxiety of students classified as high, namely 92, then decreased to 82 in the first and 70 cycles at the end of the second cycle. While the percentage of implementation of information technology-based learning at the end of the first cycle was 80.25% and at the end of the second cycle was 91%.
