Abstract

The development of technology can transform the learning process, especially in relation to instructional media. Existing instructional media can be modified and developed according to technological advancements and in alignment with the Merdeka Curriculum. Based on a needs survey, 100% of teachers require training in creating instructional media and materials related to differentiated learning, while 40% of teachers express difficulty and the need for training in algebraic concepts. This community service activity aims to enhance mathematics teachers' competence in implementing differentiated learning, particularly in algebra, and using GeoGebra technology in teaching mathematics at the Junior High School level. The activity consists of two parts: webinars and workshops. The webinars focus on the concept and strategies of differentiated algebra-based learning approaches, aimed at helping teachers understand the diverse learning needs of students. Meanwhile, the workshops provide practical training for teachers in using GeoGebra to enrich mathematics education, especially in visualizing algebraic concepts. Through this activity, teachers are expected to apply a more effective and inclusive approach to mathematics education and improve their technology utilization skills in the classroom. Evaluation results showed an 80.7% increase in teachers' understanding of differentiated learning and an 82.7% improvement in teachers' skills in using GeoGebra. Additionally, 84.6% of teachers stated that using GeoGebra in instruction is essential to help students understand algebraic concepts.

Abstract

This study contributes to mathematics education by clarifying how independent learning supports students’ creative thinking processes, particularly in vocational contexts where autonomy and problem-solving skills are crucial. This study focuses on students' learning independence and creative thinking skills with the aim of determining whether there is a relationship between learning independence and creative thinking skills among vocational high school students. This study uses a quantitative descriptive approach with a correlational method conducted at one of the vocational high schools in Tangerang City, Banten Province. The sample in this study consisted of 30 students from the 10th-grade Multimedia class. Data collection techniques included observation, a 24-item questionnaire, and a written test with 5 questions. The instruments were validated by experts and declared suitable for use, ensuring content validity and reliability. Based on the results of the study conducted in the Multimedia class, it can be concluded that the level of learning independence and creative thinking ability of students is above average, with 13 students (43.33%) scoring below average and 17 students (56.66%) scoring above average, and further analysis shows a strong positive correlation (r = 0.970, p < 0.01) between the two variables. Based on the hypothesis test, there is a significant relationship between learning independence and students' creative thinking ability.
