Abstract
This research aimed to develop competencies in integrating technology to implementing student teachers’ mathematical learning and to study students’ satisfaction with the learning implement using open approach. Participants in this research were 47 student teachers. Research instruments consisted of lesson plans, assessment of competencies of integrating technology in implement learning adapted from UNESCO’s (2010) competency framework, an observation form, and questionnaires. Data were analyzed through content analysis from student teachers’ work and the descriptive statistics including Percent, Average and S.D. The results were as follows; 1) The competency in integrating technology in learning implement of student teachers has improved from Cycle 1, where competency was at levels 1-2, to Cycle 4 of action research, where students' competency was at levels 2-4. There were 36 students with competencies from level 3 and above, accounting for 76.60 percent. That is, student teachers have the ability to design and create Mathematics task that are appropriate to the mathematical content. Along with specifying the appropriated way of using the pieces created from The Geometer's Sketchpad to be used in the teaching process to help with learning and emphasize the participation of students. 2) The overall satisfaction level of open approach was at the very satisfied level ( = 4.68, SD = 0.60).
