Abstract
The purpose of this study was to analyze the increase and achievement of students mathematical reasoning abilities after the implementation of project-based learning with GeoGebra-assisted. The research used pre-post control design. The number of samples is 78 students at the junior secondary level with purposive sampling. The method used in this study is by dividing students into two groups, namely the experimental class (project-based learning with geogebra) while the other is a control class (without Geogebra). The results of the study show that there are differences in achievement and increase students mathematical reasoning skills among students between two group. So it can be concluded that project-based learning with geogebra is more effective than conventional learning.
