Abstract
Currently, the failure rate in mathematics courses is high among university students and several studies have been done in order to identify the causes of the high failure rate in this subject According to the lecturers’ feedback, students are basically weak in a basic foundation of mathematics and do not really understand the basic concept of differentiation, Aside from that, the problem can be seen among students are; the difficulty in identifying the type of function in differentiation and difficulty in identifying suitable method to solve a particular problem. There are three methods included in differentiation; the chain rule, product rule and quotient rule. This study aims to introduce the interactive application games that can help students to improve their skills in differentiation and more understanding about the concept of differentiation. It only focuses on basic function of composite function, product of two function and rational function. By using this application, it can help students to recognize the types of function and at the same times the rules of differentiation that can be used before they solve the problem.
