Difficulties of Mathematics: What can we do

Mathematics is still a subject which is considered difficult even considered as a "scourge" for some students or students. The low interest of students learning the subjects of this is a reality that we can find a day-to-day. This condition is certainly an issue that is very serious, many factors cause and complex enough to find a solution. The teachers, lecturers or experts in mathematics is of course also seeks vengeance, throw in the ability to develop various methods of learning math.
Efforts little taste any need to always try and try again so that such mathematics to be more easily learned, can be understood and not by students. Along with the development of technology and media, an effort that tried to use the technology (software) for designing computer media and learning materials in mathematics a more interactive and dynamic so it can improve students' motivation to learn.
Software sophisticated mathematics that have been outstanding in many markets, such as Matlab, Maple, MathCad, Mathematica, and so forth. However, utilization in the learning process is still not perceived to be optimal, and not even known by many students or teachers. This condition can be used only to have the device because the computer follows softwarenya need not cost cheap. If they already have a computer and softwarenya, also sometimes not enough knowledge and ability to mendalaminya.
Once again, any little effort to improve the quality of learning mathematics Southerners need to be tested. And on this occasion the author tried to arrange a blog containing the basic design of the program learning math by using the software Maple 9 interactive and dynamic. Media up our interactive media that can bridge the user to interact independently, without foundation in the teachers learn mathematical problems symbolically. While the media dynamic meant that the media can give to the user's understanding of the symbolic mathematical problems that diverse.
In most of the design of learning mathematics that have been developed, many writers view the interactive media but are static. This means that the media only contains examples of problems in the same case and the user can not try to different problems.
