Abstract

Mathematical connection is considered one of essential aspect to learn mathematics. Framework that extends this connection has become a trend among scholars in many parts of the world especially. Therefore, this research is to provide a comprehensive literature review about extended mathematical connection among pre-service mathematics teacher. Utilizing PRISMA flow diagram, this research 15 articles from a credible source that published within 2017-2026. Based on the database, there are 154 registers paper founded. The articles were going through identification stage which removed 43 duplicated. The screening process was conducted that exclude 89 papers based on inclusion-exclusion criteria. The included articles were examined the eligibility and accessibility which resulted in 15 papers. Studies were analyzed by years, mathematical topics, mathematical connection challenges, and the learning implication. The finding of the research highlight that extended mathematical connection research has risen in the past three years with qualitative as a dominant methods and various mathematical topics such as algebra, geometry, and arithmetic. There is significant gap between university mathematics and school curriculum resulting in low different representation connection and relied on procedural knowledge. Extended Mathematical connection serves as a tool to enhance conceptual understanding, specific types of connection, and learning experiences.

Abstract

Mathematical disposition is crucial in learning mathematics, reflecting students attitudes, perseverance, curiosity, and appreciation of mathematics. However, many students still perceive mathematics as uninteresting and lack confidence in solving mathematical problems. This study aimed to evaluate the potential of an RPG Maker–based game as a pedagogical tool to support students’ mathematical disposition in the topic of geometric transformation. This study employed a pre-experimental quantitative approach with a one-group pretest-posttest design, supplemented by a brief interview. The participants of this study were 21 male high school students from Bandung, West Java, Indonesia. Data were collected using a mathematical disposition questionnaire administered before and after the intervention, as well as through interviews with one teacher and one student. Quantitative data were analyzed using paired-samples t-test. The results revealed a significant improvement in students' mathematical disposition, with the average score increasing from moderate to high. The analysis confirmed a significant change in students’ mathematical disposition, presenting a large effect size based on Cohen's criteria. The interview findings supported these results, indicating increased student engagement, confidence, and persistence. These results suggest that RPG Maker–based games have strong potential as a pedagogical tool for enhancing students’ mathematical disposition.
