The needs of worker for STEM-related jobs caused STEM education becomes an important focus. Designing activities by combining Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics itself (STEM) is possible to do in mathematics learning. This paper aimed to describe students' understanding on function shifting rules in calculus course through activities using GeoGebra as a technology application. A contextual problem was given to students and required them to solve it by using GeoGebra and using their prior knowledge in mathematics and physics. Teaching experiment was conducted to first-year mathematics education students. The data were obtained from the students' worksheet and depth interview. The results showed that the students were interested with the learning approach and they could understand the rules of function shifting. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
