Abstract
The main purpose of this research was to analyze comprehensively mathematical communication ability in ICT-Assisted Preprospec (I-Pre) Learning. To do so, it used quantitative methods with all students in the mathematics department of one of universities in Central Java, Indonesia as the population. Moreover, the sample was randomly taken from groups of students in the Study Program of Mathematics Education who enrolled in Integral Calculus course, while their data were collected using two instruments, including Test of Mathematical Communication Ability and interview guidelines. After that, the data were analyzed using t test. From the findings, it can be concluded that the enhancement of the students^ Mathematical communication Ability based on mathematical prior knowledge is no different result and there is a significant difference in the mathematical communication ability of students who get I-Pre learning with students who get conventional learning.
