Abstract: Nowadays the use of ICT in teaching-learning activities becomes a trend in education field. Therefore all people involving in teaching-learning process should update their knowledge in technology especially abilities in using ICT to improve the quality of students’ achievement. Mathematics teachers are expected to be more creative and innovative in designing lesson activities which are oriented to an active learning approach. DGS can be used as a tool to create lesson activities which support to trigger students more engaged and active in their learning activities. DGS can help to visualize geometrical shapes. As we know that geometry is a topic which needs visualization. By creating lesson activities in an active learning approach in which DGS is embedded will help to improve and to increase students’ understanding in learning geometry.
