This research on learning media development is to answer the challenge of using technology in this 21st century wherein technology is growing rapidly. The purpose of this research is to develop a learning media in the form of learning video on primary school topics. Researchers chose polyhedron to be the research subject. This search will use the 4D model and will only focus from the define up to the development stage. While the small-scale try-out and disseminate of the learning video can be done in another research. According to the validation result, the hungry ant video passed the validation and only needed a few revisions. The hungry ant video would be able to help students to visualize the shape of polyhedron, finding the diagonal space, proofing the area and volume formulas. Future research can analyze effect of the hungry ant video towards the students’ critical thinking ability.

“…Another study investigated the difference between the effect of using traditional teaching instruction and using a tablet to teach mathematics for students of first grade of an elementary school in Jordan. The study demonstrated that the use of tablets for studying mathematics was encouraging for teachers and students as part of the learning process; it also showed that in some specific cases students improved their mathematics skills [5].…”

This paper presents a mobile application that supports the learning process of mathematics for fifth grade students, which specifically focuses on the practice of fractions through a series of different games, such as determining if a fraction is less, greater or equals to another fraction; distributing a pizza in fractions; weighing fractions of watermelons; making equivalent fractions; among others. A comparative analysis of existing mobile applications is provided, which is based on some relevant features, such as the types of operations included, the game modes supported, the interactivity of games, the support for two players in the games, the orientation of the games to fractions, the cost of use, the possibility to drag and drop elements in the games of the mobile application, the orientation to fifth grade students, among others. Given that information and communication technologies and ludic are two elements that can provide benefits when incorporated into the teaching and learning processes, this paper also examines different studies that review the impact of mobile devices for designing effective learning experiences in the field of mathematics, the difference between traditional teaching training and the use of electronic devices, and the use of ludic as a component that could benefit the teaching and learning processes through games or entertainment activities.

The case study reported in the paper investigated the effect of Project-based learning on students training to be mathematics teachers, pursuing their final projects. The final projects had as an aim of designing attractive and interactive mathematics learning material. This study used a qualitative method to assess the impact on the trainee teachers in terms of their creative design thinking. The research made use of the Hawgent dynamic mathematics software package. The study participants were all students at Guangxi Normal University, China. The students were divided into three groups, each with four or five members. The results presented show that selecting material and combining it with art using dynamic mathematics software can improve the communication skills, problem-solving and creative thinking skills, and improve the prospective teachers' self-confidence. Moreover, it was found that prospective mathematics teachers need motivation and support during their projects' lifecycle and that motivation has a positive effect on improving self-confidence.
