Abstract
This study aims to get a picture of the effect of the use of computational mathematics teaching materials aided Mathematica software on student learning outcomes. The problem commonly faced by students in vector algebra courses is the understanding of concepts in the lecture material so that it impacts on the low student learning outcomes. The method used in this study is a quasi-experimental with pretest-posttest non-equivalent control group design. The results obtained in this study are the differences in learning outcomes between groups of students who use these teaching materials and those who do not. A significant increase in student learning outcomes by an average of 5% was found after the use of computational mathematics teaching materials aided Mathematica software in the Vector Algebra course. Therefore, it can be concluded that the use of teaching materials influences student learning outcomes.
