Abstract

Geometry has abstract notions to be learnt so that all those notions cannot be just transferred into students’ mind like a bunch of information that should be memorized. Students need to construct those concepts during their learning process. This process of knowledge construction can be considered as an abstraction process. This study aimed to qualitatively compare abstraction process of students who learned the topic of triangle in conventional method and in van Hiele model of teaching aided by Geometers’ sketchpad. Subjects of this study were junior high school students in grade 7. This is a qualitative study with grounded theory design. Data were collected through classroom observation, test, and task-based interview. Results of the study show that theoretical abstraction processes tend to dominate classrom with conventional method of teaching while classroom with van Hiele model of teaching aided by Geometers’ sketchpad accommodated empirical abstraction process of the students.

Abstract

The penetration of social media in the community has been very high. Nowadays, almost all students at the school are using smartphones for their daily activities. This study is a descriptive quantitative exploratory research to find out how the students response when learning using social media is implemented as a mobile learning system. Data were taken from four different schools in the rural area of Yogyakarta, Indonesia. Mathematics learning using a different social media (WeChat, Line@, Socrative, and Edmodo) was applied to student of grade 7 of each school. Data collection used USE questionnaire which measured whether the implemented learning model using social media could be well received by students and appropriate learning expectations. USE questionnaire has 4 measured factors i.e. usefulness, ease to use, ease of learning, and satisfaction. From the data, it shows that all factors were high. The highest one was satisfaction (3.15) then, usefulness (3.11), ease to learn (3.00), and ease to use (2.94) respectively. On average, the social media got the highest student’s response as a learning system was Socrative (3.18), then Edmodo (3.15), Line@ (3.00) and WeChat (2.89). Further analysis using statistical technique showed that students have good perception to Socrative and Edmodo. This finding implies that the social media especially Socrative and Edmodo are valuable to be used in the leaning using flexible learning strategy.

Abstract

Activities posing and solving a problem are important parts in mathematics, so the problem posing is an activity that was instrumental in mathematical thinking and become an important part in solving the problem. This type of research is research and development that aims to develop student worksheets through scientific approach with what if not strategy. The research method consists of stages: literature study, observation, interviews, development of student worksheets, assessment of two experts, and restricted trial to the eleventh grade students in SMAN 2 Cimahi, SMAN 3 Cimahi, and SMAN 4 Cimahi. Based on the findings, it was concluded that the student worksheets through scientific approach with what if not strategy load some activities including observing, questioning, trying, reasoning, and concluding. The activity of questioning using what if not strategy involves changing data, adding data, changing data with the same question, or changing question with the same data. The student worksheets also presented some contextual problems in accordance with the experience of students. After tested using worksheet, the improvement of student mathematical problem posing in the three schools was in moderate criteria.

Abstract

The paper aims to explain how GeoGebra can be used in a differential calculus course to explore the Derivative concepts by providing dynamic-visualizations of the concept. Design research methodology was used in this research by designing an instructional design (hypothetical learning trajectories) in the first phase and conducting the teaching experiment in the second phase. The data collected during the experiment consist of video recordings of the classroom activities, observations, interviews, and students written work. In the third phase of the design research, the data were analyzed retrospectively by comparing the actual learning process and the hypothetical learning trajectory. The results show that the dynamic feature of GeoGebra offers the possibility of zooming in on a graph corresponds to taking infinitesimal when a secant line transforms into a tangent line. This builds a foundation for the understanding of the definition of derivative intuitively.

Abstract

This research aims to test the effectiveness of the Team Accelerated Instruction (TAI) towards the ability of the students to solve mathematics problems based on their initial ability. This study is an experiment with 367 students involved as the research sample taken using the cluster technique. The research variable is the problem-solving ability, the initial ability, and the learning model. Analysis of variance was used to analyze the data which leads to the conclusions that (1) the TAI is more effective than the Direct Instruction (DI); (2) the students having moderate initial ability performed better compared to the lower and the higher initial ability; (3) among the students with moderate initial ability, TAI was more effective to be used than DI; and (4) in the implementation of  TAI and DI, the problem solving ability of the students is relatively similar.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate the methodological quality of meta-analyses in mathematics education research. Computerized searches were conducted in ERIC, PsycINFO, ProQuest, and JSTOR through January 2016 for meta-analyses pertinent to technology integration in the mathematics classroom.  To identify studies, mathematics subject matter terms such as ‘systematic review’, literature review’ and ‘meta-analysis’ were used. Retrieved studies were screened, extracted, and the methodological quality was evaluated using the 11-item Revised Assessment of Multiple Systematic Reviews (R-AMSTAR). The characteristics of meta-analyses associated with the methodological reporting quality were identified. Results suggest that on average the quality of methodological reporting is good, but there are several areas of concern. Implications are provided to improve research and classroom practice in this area.

Abstract

Storytelling has been severally regarded as the oldest method of instruction delivery, particularly for children. This study adopts a simple survey research design to explore the extent of storytelling usage by teachers in the mathematics classroom at the primary education level in Nigeria. The investigation was conducted on the premise that traditional folktales are heading down the path to extinction and are steadily being blown away in the wind of change being fanned by increasing technology penetration in the country. The participants of the study are 38 mathematics teachers drawn randomly from primary schools within Makurdi metropolis of Benue State, Nigeria. Analysis of data obtained through the Basic mathematics Storytelling Investigation (BMSI) revealed that despite the high level of awareness of storytelling as a teaching approach among mathematics teachers, only a meager 37% make use of stories in their mathematics classroom. Additional thematic analysis of stories described by the teachers showed that stories were used to illustrate learning points and motivate learners to action within the instructional context. An unintended outcome from the qualitative methods unveiled specific patterns of stories used by the mathematics teachers that are far from local folktales and oral traditions. There was also an indication that with an appropriate awareness campaign, primary mathematics teachers intend to use storytelling in their future teaching practice.

Abstract

The main objective of this study is to investigate the effects of collaborative learning on students’ understanding of probability and their attitudes towards mathematics. The participants were 15 Year 10 students selected by convenience sampling at a secondary school in Brunei Darussalam. In total, six intervention lessons with the application of Think-Pair-Share strategy were conducted. Data collection methods included a series of tests (pre- and post-tests and delayed post-test), surveys, students’ interviews and lesson observations. The findings revealed improvements in the students’ test scores and they were able to retain their knowledge after a period of time. From the triangulated data, it was found that the students demonstrated an increase in their self-efficacy, participation, understanding and enjoyment levels after the intervention. Their enjoyment towards learning probability was derived from being able to communicate with their peers. The students showed more enthusiasm and participation in class as the lessons progressed.
