Abstract
Abstract The purpose of mathematics learning is to understand the basic concept and use it in everyday life. So teaching and learning activities should be centered on the basic concepts. The author use Hawgent dynamic mathematics software to prove the formula for the area of a circle. This research uses the ADDIE model. According to the evaluation result of education and information technology experts, Hawgent dynamic mathematics software can prove the formula for the area of a circle. According to the actual teaching and feedback from teachers and students, Hawgent dynamic mathematics software plays a positive role in proving and understanding of the area formula of a circle. Therefore, using Hawgent dynamic mathematics software in teaching can better help students' classroom learning.
