Abstract

Students’ mathematical literacy remains a persistent challenge across educational levels and continues to be a critical concern in mathematics education. This condition suggests that existing learning practices are largely dominated by conventional instructional approaches that do not adequately accommodate students’ diverse learning needs and readiness levels. The study aimed to analyze the mathematical literacy abilities of Grade VII junior high school students after participating in differentiated outdoor mathematics learning on integer topics. A mixed-methods research design was employed. Quantitative data were collected from 25 students of Grade VII-B at SMP Negeri 17 Batanghari through the implementation of differentiated outdoor learning activities, supported by learning implementation observation sheets. Subsequently, qualitative data were gathered from six selected students to gain deeper insights into their mathematical literacy processes through analysis of test responses and semi-structured interviews. Mathematical literacy was assessed based on students’ performance on literacy-oriented test items and interview data. The results indicated that overall student completion reached 44%, with 20% of students categorized as having high mathematical literacy, 52% moderate literacy, and 28% low literacy. Further analysis based on students’ learning readiness showed that students with high readiness (S1KBT and S2KBT) achieved completion levels of 98.33% and 83.33%, respectively. Students with moderate readiness (S1KBS and S2KBS) attained 81.66% and 80%, while students with low readiness (S1KBR and S2KBR) reached 78.33% and 53.33%. These findings suggest that differentiated outdoor mathematics learning contributes to the development of students’ mathematical literacy across varying levels of learning readiness.

Abstract

The majority of students have very low levels of spatial thinking ability. Spatial ability is essential for students to better understand geometry topics, particularly polyhedra (solid figures with flat faces). This condition is further exacerbated by the use of conventional mathematics teaching methods, which primarily focus on lectures, textbooks, and drill exercises. As a result, classroom learning often leads students to feel bored and less enthusiastic. To address this issue, the researcher implemented a game-based outdoor learning approach. Therefore, this study aims to examine the improvement in the mathematical spatial ability of ninth-grade students after the implementation of game-based outdoor learning. The research subjects were students of class IX B at one junior high school in Jambi City. This study employed a quantitative descriptive pre-experimental method, using a One-Group Pretest–Posttest Design, in which only one experimental class was given the treatment. To determine the level of improvement in students’ mathematical spatial ability, N-gain analysis was used. The N-gain value was calculated by comparing the difference between pretest and posttest scores, and the results were interpreted into high, moderate, or low improvement categories. Based on descriptive statistical analysis, the research data showed that the minimum student score was 20, the maximum score was 86.6, and the mean score of students’ mathematical spatial ability was 56.6357, with a standard deviation of 17.44458. Out of 28 students, 3 students showed a high improvement in spatial ability, 20 students showed moderate improvement, and 5 students showed low improvement. The implementation of game-based outdoor learning was found to enhance students’ spatial ability, particularly in the geometry of polyhedra, by integrating physical and collaborative activities to achieve enjoyable learning objectives.
