ABSTRACT
This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the use of technology in calculus courses. The technology used is the integration of Mathematica software in teaching integral concepts. This study used a quasi-experimental method. The population in this study were students from one of the private colleges who took calculus courses. Two groups were selected by purposive sampling as a control group and experimental group. Each group consists of thirty students. Both groups were given pretest and posttest related to problem-solving skills. The results showed that improvement in problem-solving abilities of students who received calculus courses with Mathematica was better than students who received calculus courses without Mathematica.
