Abstract

The lack of multimedia applications in schools and the low mathematical communication ability of students, as an alternative to using Android. The purpose of the research is to improve students mathematical communication ability through android based learning project. The quasi experimental study at Bandung Indonesia Junior High School implicated 55 students as samples, 29 students in class VIII C as an experimental class and 26 students in class VIII D as a control class. Mathematical communication ability test instrument. Data analysis: independent T test, two way ANAVA test. The findings: Improved Communication of students who get learning on Android based learning projects was higher than students who get conventional learning. There were no difference in the achievement of mathematical communication between students who get an Android based learning project and conventional learning based on mathematical basic knowledge in the high, medium and low categories. Android based learning project facilitates inventions process, reflective, the material is easy to understanding so that students mathematical communication skills increase.
