Abstract

This study aims to describe geometric objects that used by students on constructing fractal batik using Geogebra, procedure that used to construct fractal batik design, and students creativity on the process of constructing fractal batik. The qualitative descriptive research was applies including data collection, data separation, data analysis and conclusions. The research data were obtained from 97 students of tadris mathematics IAIN Kediri. The research results showed that fractal batik was constructed from a single geometric shape and combination of 2, 3, and 4 single geometric shapes through steps (a) made basic patterns using geometric shapes in Geogebra, (b) Made New Tools to perform repetitions (iteration), (c) Determined the type of transformation that used to repeat the basic patterns, and (d) Constructed geometric fractal batik. Based on the creativity indicators fluency, 3 types of geometric fractals can be obtained, namely (a) Fractals with Repetition and Enlargement (FPB), (b) Fractals with Repetition and Change Position (FPS), and (c) Fractals with Mix Repetition (FPC). Based on the flexibility indicator, there are 32 basic geometric shapes that develop basic patterns by applying 15 types of transformation consist of Single Transformation, Double Transformation, Triple Transformation and Quadruple Transformation. Meanwhile, on the originality indicator, P3 is the basic shape that has been mostly developed into geometric fractal batik which is a combination of equilateral triangles and squares.
