Abstract

Low cognitive learning outcomes of students can hinder student learning processes. This obstacle occurs because the learning method has yet to facilitate student learning trajectories resulting in low cognitive mathematics learning outcomes for students. The purpose of this research was to determine the impact of the MathMagic learning method on the mathematics cognitive learning outcomes of the students. The method used in this research was a quasi-experimental research design with a nonequivalent control group design. Data collection was done by test technique of students' cognitive learning outcomes. Data analysis techniques in this study used instrument tests in the form of validity and reliability tests, prerequisite tests in the form of normality tests and homogeneity tests, and hypothesis tests in the form of independent sample t-tests. The results show that the MathMagic learning method influenced students' cognitive learning outcomes in mathematics, especially in adding fractions with different denominators. This MathMagic learning method effectively improves understanding of the basic addition of fractions with unlike denominators.

Abstract

Research related to crazy bamboo dance, a traditional dance from Maluku and North Maluku, is still oriented towards cultural studies and has not been integrated into mathematics learning. On the other hand, the use of GeoGebra classrooms in previous research mainly refers to the influence on mathematics learning, so there is still a lack of development research based on GeoGebra classrooms that are integrated with cultures such as crazy bamboo dances. The purpose of this study is to produce learning tools in the form of a learning implementation plan (LIP), teaching materials (TM), and student worksheets (SW). In this case, the context of crazy bamboo dance is more focused on the dance medium, namely bamboo, to study tube material. The development model used is a 4D modified model from Thiagarajan. The results of this study produced an RME-based learning tool in the context of crazy bamboo dance assisted by GeoGebra classrooms that are valid, practical, and effective. In addition, the products produced can be used in geometry learning by teachers and students. Still, through this research, teachers can design and develop ethnomathematics-based learning tools by integrating them with the available mathematics software, one of which is Geogebra Classroom.

Abstract

The Indonesian students' creative thinking skill is low. One alternative to improve students' creative thinking skills is to implement realistic mathematics education. This study aimed to determine the difference in the average score of the creative thinking skills of students taught through realistic mathematics education, and students taught through the expository method on the straight-line equation topic. This study is experimental research with a post-test-only control in a class of eight-grade in one of the junior high schools in Aceh, Indonesia. The sample in this study was 30 students in the control group and 32 students in the experimental group. The instrument was a creative thinking test. The data were analyzed using a t-test. Based on the analysis, the average score of the creative thinking skill of students taught through realistic mathematics education was better than those taught through the expository method on the straight-line equation topic. Teachers are expected to guide students to solve challenging real problems to develop their creativity.

Abstract

Reversible thinking is a cognitive activity in finding a solution to a problem by arranging the direction of logical thinking from the end to the starting point. Reversible thinking requires a student to think logically in two ways. Therefore, reversible thinking influences students' success in solving problems. This study aims to identify students' thinking processes in solving problems that require reversible thinking ability. This research was conducted on junior high school students in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia, using test instruments, interviews, and documentation studies. The tests given consisted of two types of problems, including tests on forward-thinking problems and tests on reversible thinking problems. The research subjects were students with high average mathematics scores in their class. The study found that students could answer the tests on forward-thinking problem-solving very well but could not work on similar questions with the backward-thinking process. Based on the interview results, one of the causes for the need for more backward-thinking ability is the limited learning resources or context when students first learn the concept.

Abstract

Problem-solving can be understood as a cognitive process in which students know facts, processes, concepts, and procedures and then apply the knowledge to solve problems in real situations. Indonesia’s national average achievement of numeracy skills in 2021, the cognitive process of competence reasoning is higher than the competencies of knowing and applying. This study aims to analyze students' cognitive processes in solving numeration problems related to the algebraic domain. The algebraic domain in this study is limited to competencies in making generalizations from patterns in number sequences and object configuration sequences. This research was conducted qualitatively with a phenomenological design using three high-category and three low-category students to achieve data saturation. The supporting instruments are students' answers and interview results related to the algebraic domain. This study concluded that students' cognitive processes in solving numeracy problems associated with the algebraic domain in the high and low categories have different descriptions. This difference in intelligence has an impact when solving math problems. This research can help enrich the understanding of students' cognitive processes and contribute to the development of better mathematics learning strategies and curricula.

Design collaborative learning projects using a STEAM approach to assist students in acquiring these skills. This study's primary purpose is to create kites to aid junior high school students in addressing problems concerning PLSV and the kite area. This study applies a design research type of validation study. The data collection technique used is using images, products, and review documents for data collecting. The research participants were 30 seventh-grade (Phase D) junior high school students in Palembang. This study developed a learning trajectory that includes three exercises and post-test questions. Students can investigate and address issues associated with kite construction using PLSV materials. In the second activity, students can create kites and estimate their area based on their kite-making skills. After the kite is built, students fly a kite and study it. Students can improve their numeracy abilities through project-based learning employing STEAM in the context of kite creation, as demonstrated by the findings of this study. This knowledge aids them in overcoming obstacles associated with PLSV content and expands kite-making.

Abstract

Argumentation as an aspect of problem-solving has been studied in mathematics education. However, mathematical proof still needs to be resolved further. This study investigates students' mathematical argumentation skills when proving mathematical statements based on their self-efficacy. The research subjects were 43 mathematics education students at a university in Aceh Province who had taken a number theory course. The study used a qualitative approach with a case study design: students’ mathematical proving self-efficacy. Data was obtained using self-efficacy questionnaires and mathematical proof test instruments that experts have validated, while the data triangulation used was an in-depth interview. The results of this study reveal that students' mathematical argumentation skills in proving mathematical statements have differences based on their self-efficacy. The mathematical argumentation ability of students with high self-efficacy involves all aspects of argumentation well so that the construction of the proof is scientifically correct. Meanwhile, the argumentation ability of students with moderate or low self-efficacy still does not involve essential aspects of argumentation. So, the proof results are not scientifically correct because they have not arrived at the proper conclusion.

Abstract

This research aims to find learning obstacles for students studying LCM and GCF as a reference in preparing teaching materials that can overcome these obstacles. This research involved 74 grade V students at three public schools in Bandung, Indonesia. The research method used in this study was case study research—data collection techniques using triangulation by providing tests, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis techniques use data collection, reduction, presentation, and conclusions. The results show three categories of learning obstacles: ontogenic, epistemological, and didactic. The ontogenic obstacle was found because the students understood multiples, factors, and arithmetic operations on natural numbers in solving LCM and GCF problems. Epistemological obstacles were discovered because of the limited context in which students understood the concepts of LCM and GCF, so they could not use them in contexts such as word problems. Didactical obstacles were found from learning that was given by the teacher procedurally using factoring methods, namely prime factorization or factor trees. Therefore, these obstacles must be anticipated by designing learning designs that can facilitate learning trajectories, focus on concepts, and make learning more meaningful.
