The development of information and communication technology (ICT) has opened up great opportunities in increasing the effectiveness of mathematics learning, especially in supporting students' computational thinking skills. This article presents a mini-literature review related to the use of Tibi's Mathematics Suite (TMS) as interactive software in mathematics learning. Using a descriptive qualitative approach and desk research method, this study analyzes various scientific sources to evaluate the contribution of TMS to the development of computational thinking, which includes decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction, and algorithms. The results of the study show that TMS is able to increase students' interest in learning, independence, and metacognitive awareness, although its implementation still faces challenges such as limited infrastructure and teacher training. This review recommends the need for further empirical studies and education policy support so that the integration of TMS can be more optimal in the context of the Independent Curriculum and the strengthening of the Pancasila Student Profile.

This study aims to explore the application of GeoGebra software in improving students' mathematical communication skills. GeoGebra, as a visualization and interactive tool, is considered to be able to help students understand mathematical concepts more deeply and effectively. This literature study collects and analyzes various studies that have been conducted on the use of GeoGebra at various levels of education, from elementary school to college. The results of the study show that the use of GeoGebra can improve students' mathematical communication skills, both in written and oral form. Students who use GeoGebra tend to have an easier time describing and explaining mathematical concepts, as well as being more actively involved in discussions and problem-solving. In addition, GeoGebra also helps to increase students' motivation to learn and provide a more enjoyable and meaningful learning experience. The conclusion of this study shows that GeoGebra is an effective tool to be used in mathematics learning to improve students' mathematical communication skills.

Computational thinking is the ability to solve problems and design systems using concepts and techniques generally associated with computers and computer programming. The aim of this research is to conduct a literature review, namely to determine the application of computational thinking in mathematics learning. The technique used is the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) strategy. SLR is a research method that aims to identify, study and interpret data in journals systematically with specified stages. The conclusion obtained from the research results is that the application of computational thinking in mathematics learning can be done using four foundations of computational thinking, namely: (1) Decomposition, namely the problem is divided into small parts, (2) Pattern recognition, namely the process of identifying patterns or sequences of problems, (3) Abstraction, namely consideration of the important parts of a problem, and (4) Algorithm, namely a series of instructions for solving the problem. Examples of its application include the use of interactive mathematics software, mathematical simulations, problem-based learning with technology, adaptive learning and the use of educational games.
 

Engineering is a science that studies the skills of creating tools and processing methods to perform various human tasks. Education is the conscious effort to prepare students for future tasks through teaching, learning and/or training. Character is a set of qualities that are always admired as a sign of a person's goodness, virtue and moral maturity. The purpose of this research is to conduct a literature review, ie. to find out the importance of technology in the development of a student's character. The method used is the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) strategy. SLR is a research method that aims to systematically identify, examine and interpret information obtained from journals at certain stages. The research results show that the integration of technology into education not only supports the learning process, but also plays an important role in the development of the student's character. Technology-based education encourages students to think critically, collaborate and adapt to the rapid changes of the digital age. Therefore, technology is an important tool to develop students who are academically intelligent in accordance with the values of Pancasila, but also with strong character and noble morals.

The importance of computational thinking skills has encouraged educational institutions around the world to integrate these concepts into their curricula. However, the challenge faced is finding the most effective learning methods and models to teach these skills. An appropriate learning model must not only be able to attract students' interest and motivation, but must also be able to increase their understanding and practical abilities in computational thinking. This research adopts a literature review method to explore information about effective learning models in improving students' computational thinking skills. Data was collected from various sources such as national and international journals, reference books, newspapers and magazines. The main aim of this literature review, as explained. The results of research on Problem Based Learning (PBL) and Project Based Learning show very positive results in improving students' computational thinking. These two models not only improve computational thinking skills, but also critical, creative and analytical thinking skills, as well as student participation and involvement in the learning process.
