Abstract
GeoGebra is a learning media that is often used in studying Geometry and Algebra. Easy-to-use software makes GeoGebra a learning media that is widely used by educators and students. According to several previous studies, the use of GeoGebra in learning has a positive influence on student engagement (affective, behavioral, and cognitive) in learning mathematics. On this basis, this study aims to explore what factors make GeoGebra Software able to have a positive influence so that the software is effective in increasing student involvement in learning mathematics. This study uses a literature review method by reviewing more than twenty articles from the result of previous studies relates to student engagement in learning, GeoGebra in learning mathematics, and the implementation of GeoGebra on student engagement in learning mathematics. The result of this study indicate that GeoGebra is interactive, dynamic software, and has attractive, fast and precise visualizations, making GeoGebra a simple but powerful software, especially software that is easy to obtain and is available for free in various languages and has various features. Supporting it such as feature dragging makes GeoGebra a software that has a positive influence on student^s engagement (affective, behavioral, and cognitive) in learning mathematics, so it can be concluded that GeoGebra can be used as an alternative learning media that can increase student involvement in learning mathematics
