Abstract

Literacy and numeracy are the abilities of students to use basic mathematics in solving daily life problems, and students should have it. Various studies have shown that Indonesian students' literacy and numeracy skills still need to improve. One of the solutions to this problem is RME, and one of the components that influence this skill is teachers as a facilitator and their experiences. Thus, this research aims to refigure how students who receive Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) literacy and numeracy skills improve based on teacher's experiences. The research subjects are third, fourth, and fifth-grade students in elementary schools in Padang. Three schools were selected for each grade level and taught by three teachers with different experiences. The students were given literacy and numeracy problems before and after RME instruction. The answers were assessed and grouped to examine the student's literacy and numeracy achievement. The research results show that student's literacy and numeracy skills are better with RME learning. Student's literacy and numeracy skills are not influenced by teachers' experience.

Abstract

The integration of digital modules in higher education has become increasingly vital in enhancing student engagement, collaboration, and critical thinking, especially in post-pandemic learning environments. Research Team-Based Learning (RTBL) is a collaborative pedagogy that emphasizes problem-solving, peer interaction, and research-based inquiry. This theoretical review explores the role of digital modules in supporting RTBL by synthesizing findings from 15 international open-access studies published between 2020 and 2025. Using a narrative review method guided by PRISMA procedures, studies were selected from reputable databases (e.g., DOAJ, PLOS ONE, Frontiers) based on criteria including relevance to RTBL and use of digital instructional materials. Thematic analysis identified four dominant themes: student engagement, digital literacy, instructional design, and post-pandemic implications. Findings indicate that digital modules enhance the effectiveness of RTBL by providing flexible access to learning materials, promoting active participation, and enabling peer-to-peer interaction. However, their impact is highly dependent on students’ digital literacy, the quality of instructional design, and institutional infrastructure. Poorly designed modules or limited digital skills can hinder collaborative learning outcomes. This review concludes that digital modules are not merely supplementary tools but essential enablers of RTBL success. Their implementation requires a balanced strategy that integrates pedagogical, technological, and institutional support. Future research should explore longitudinal impacts, AI-driven instructional feedback, and cross-cultural adaptations to optimize the use of digital modules in collaborative higher education settings.

Abstract

This study addresses the limited exploration of mathematical concepts embedded in Minangkabau traditional food practices, despite their potential to support culturally relevant mathematics learning. The research aims to identify and describe the ethnomathematical elements found in the preparation of four traditional foods: lamang, basung cake, onde-onde, and mangkuak cake. A qualitative approach was employed using ethnographic and case study methods. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews with traditional food makers, visual documentation, and supporting literature. The data were analyzed using thematic analysis combined with mathematical and geometric identification techniques to uncover measurement, proportional reasoning, and geometric structures. The findings reveal that traditional food preparation integrates various mathematical concepts, including ratios, volume and weight measurement, symmetry, cylindrical and conical geometry, and time estimation. These concepts appear in ingredient measurement, shaping techniques, folding patterns, and cooking management, although practitioners apply them intuitively without formal notation. The study concludes that Minangkabau culinary practices represent rich sources of ethnomathematical knowledge that can be integrated into mathematics education. This integration has the potential to enhance meaningful learning, connect mathematics with students’ cultural experiences, and support the preservation of local heritage.

Abstract

This study develops and validates a Hypothetical Learning Trajectory (HLT) integrating everyday life science contexts within Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) framework for teaching social arithmetic to seventh-grade students. Through design research methodology involving three students with varying mathematical abilities, the research examined how contextually rich learning activities scaffold students' progression from informal to formal mathematical reasoning. Results demonstrated significant improvements in conceptual understanding across all ability levels, with most substantial gains observed among lower-ability students (143.8% improvement). Qualitative analysis revealed students' transformation from procedural memorization to conceptual reasoning, with contextual barriers rather than cognitive limitations identified as primary impediments to mathematical understanding. The HLT successfully facilitated students' development of meaningful connections between mathematical procedures and real-world applications, particularly in profit-loss scenarios and taxation calculations. These findings indicate that RME-based contextual integration creates effective pathways to conceptual mastery, offering inclusive learning opportunities that address persistent gaps between classroom mathematics and practical application. The research contributes to both theoretical understanding of mathematics learning trajectories and practical instructional design for meaningful mathematics education.

Abstract

This systematic literature review examines the integration of Guided Inquiry and Deeper Learning models to enhance problem-solving skills in junior high school Mathematics and Science education. Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, a comprehensive search was conducted across Scopus, Web of Science, and ERIC databases for peer-reviewed articles published between 2015 and 2025. Twelve studies met the inclusion criteria and passed quality assessment using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool. Results reveal a sharp increase in publications post-2020, predominantly from Asian countries (Indonesia, Turkey, Thailand). All included studies reported positive outcomes, with guided inquiry cycles enhanced by reflection, knowledge transfer, and critical thinking components demonstrating significant improvements in students' problem-solving abilities compared to traditional instruction. Thematic analysis identified consistent instructional patterns including student worksheets, real-world problem contexts, and collaborative activities. However, gaps remain in longitudinal research, technology integration, and teacher professional development. This study proposes the Integrated Guided Inquiry–Deeper Learning Framework (IGI-DLF) as a conceptual guide for educators and researchers. The findings conclude that integrating deeper learning principles within inquiry-based approaches effectively fosters higher-order thinking and problem-solving competencies. Future research should focus on long-term skill retention, artificial intelligence scaffolding, and cross-cultural validation to advance mathematics and science education globally.
