Every student likes a game that can keep him entertained by the many lessons at school. When they find it difficult to understand mathematical concepts in class, they tend not to show innovation in thinking when completing practice questions. Students mostly access video games via smartphones to forget learning difficulties. Furthermore, designed digital audio media related to sports and that obtained by students, namely commercial sports video games. From the results of the study, it turns out students who play commercial sports video games show innovative thinking skills, more comfortable to learn concepts, and enjoy mathematics. They can interpret according to what is in the scheme and written using a mathematical model.

Students who experience anxiety can influence how these students to think, reason, and do actions to solve problems in mathematics subjects, especially about triangles. The solution used to reduce the level of mathematics anxiety of students is to use an information technology-based learning approach. The purpose of this study is to describe whether information technology-based learning and communication can reduce mathematics anxiety of grade 7 students. This classroom action research consists of two cycles with the initial stage of setting targets for achieving indicators of research success. The results showed that the average level of anxiety of students classified as high, namely 92, then decreased to 82 in the first and 70 cycles at the end of the second cycle. While the percentage of implementation of information technology-based learning at the end of the first cycle was 80.25% and at the end of the second cycle was 91%.
