Abstract

This research aims to determine the relationship between numeracy and the problem solving abilities of elementary school students. Numeracy data was obtained from school education reports, while problem solving abilities were obtained from the results of tests specifically designed by researchers to get a more specific picture of students' abilities. The research method used is descriptive quantitative with a correlational approach. The research population was fifth grade students in several elementary schools in Kuningan Regency. Cumulative data from education reports is analyzed to see the overall numeracy pattern in each school. The test is designed to measure a person's problem-solving abilities. The results showed that there was a significant positive correlation between numeracy and students' problem solving abilities (r = 0.869, p < 0.01 ) . Regression analysis shows that numeracy ability significantly predicts problem solving ability (β = 0.54, p < 0.05). These findings demonstrate the importance of evaluating individual numeracy to improve problem-solving skills. From these results, it can be concluded that increasing numeracy in students can significantly increase their ability to solve problems. Therefore, efforts to strengthen numeracy learning in elementary schools are very necessary to support the development of better problem solving skills in students.

Abstract

The background that drives this research is that as the times develop, new literacy is needed in the world of education to improve the quality and quality of education by introducing teachers to the STEAM approach. The focus of the problem in this study is how the profile of the understanding of prospective elementary school teachers towards the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) approach in Semarang City. This type of research is qualitative descriptive. Data collection in this study was carried out by methods of (1) observation, (2) interviews, (3) questionnaires, and documentation. The subject of this study is prospective elementary school teachers in the city of Semarang. The sample taken was students who were studying for the Pre-service Teacher Profession in Semarang City. The data obtained from the results of interviews with teachers, students, and parents were processed using data triangulation. This study concludes that not all students of Pre-service teacher professional education know about the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and, Mathematics) approach, but they have unconsciously implemented or applied the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and, Mathematics) approaching the learning process. This can be proven by the existence of prospective teachers who can give student assignments in the form of projects.
