With Microsoft Office 2007 we can develop learning geometry at school. Microsoft Office 2007 comes SmartArt Graphic so that users can create different kinds of graphs. With SmartArt graphics tools we can create different kinds of geometry dimensions 2 or 3 dimensions. With SmartArt graphics devices we also can do animation in the polygon as well as add a wide range of text for an explanation of the picture.
Competency Standards relating to junior high school students with the ability to specify geometric could be as follows:
1. Understanding the relationship line to line, line with an angle, angle to angle, and determine the size
2. Understand the concept of a rectangle and a triangle and determine the size
3. Using the Pythagorean Theorem in problem solving
4. Determining element, the circle and the size
5. Understanding the properties of the cube, block, prism, pyramid, and their parts, and determine the size
6. Understanding congruent polygon flat and its use in problem solving
7. Understanding the properties of tubes, cones and spheres, and determine the size.
Use of Microsoft Word 2007 software can be done easily because the software is available on all new-generation computers. Skills make the polygon-polygon elementary geometry using Microsoft Word 2007 facilities can be developed to make the polygon-polygon is more complex geometries, such as polygon-polygon 3-dimensional geometry. Skills can be improved to study aspects of geometry with a higher standard of competence, for example to determine the value of pi. From the above description can be concluded as follows:
a. The use of Microsoft Word 2007 is relatively easy to do by the teacher because the software is contained in almost every new computer generation.
b. The use of Microsoft Word 2007 will add to the motivation and pleasure in studying geometry.
c. Students can use Microsoft Word 2007 to study the geometry either independently or through collaboration.
d. By using Microsoft Word 2007, students can conduct an investigation or investigations of concepts of geometry.
e. By using Microsoft Word 2007, students can perform activities of problem solving or solving mathematical problems.
f. By using Microsoft Word 2007, students can communicate its results to both the teacher and to other friends.
