Abstract
This study was based on "The Effectiveness of GeoGebra on Teaching Linear
Equation ". The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of GeoGebra and its
perception in teaching linear equation. This research has conducted by using mixed
method. This study involved forty student of grade eight from Heartland academy
Kathmandu, Nepal. The forty students were divided into two groups as experimental
group and control group by random sampling technique. The data was collected by
using achievement test of linear equation and questionnaire for perception of student
towards GeoGebra. The experimental group was subjected to the lessons arranged
with the GeoGebra software in computer- assisted teaching method, while the control
group was subjected to the lessons shaped with traditional method. The data were
collected by the experiment two weeks of teaching. Significance result was found in
achievement score of the experimental and control group in favour of the
experimental group at 5% level of significance. Furthermore, the perception of the
students towards the use of GeoGebra in teaching was found the positive. So the
researcher concludes that GeoGbra is an effective tool for teaching linear equation.
