Abstract
This research has developed a series of activities for learning about prism via online media using GeoGebra software to study the understanding of students. We developed four activity sets consisting of series 1: “Prism construction”, series 2: “Unfolding form of different prisms”, series 3: “Surface area of different prisms” and series 4: “Volume of different prisms”. As a result of this study, students have a good understanding of representation that able to draw prisms and unfold the prisms, and promote reasoning skills to identify prism components to distinguish prisms. It also increases the problem solving skills of the surface area and the volume of the prism.
