Abstract

Mathematical bitterness is one of the critical factors influencing students’ mathematical performance, highlighting the need for further action to address its impact.  However, there has been no instrument thus far that can identify mathematical bitterness, particularly one caused by teacher treatment. This research, therefore, aims to construct an instrument to identify the presence of mathematical bitterness. This research involved 307 senior high school and undergraduate students, who were given and responded to a set of 30 questions. The data were then analyzed using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) through IBM SPSS 20. Confirmatory factor analysis grouped the items into six dimensions (indicators) of mathematical bitterness. Each indicator shows a high Cronbach Alpha result, indicating strong validity in each group of indicators. Overall, the constructed instrument demonstrates strong validity and reliability. This instrument has been successfully constructed and statistically tested, thus making it readily available for use by other scholars interested in investigating mathematical bitterness on a broader scale.

Abstract

The activeness of students is important and fundamental to support the effectiveness of online mathematics learning. However, the reality shows that students often lack courage and enthusiastism in asking and answering questions, conveying understanding, and being less involved in doing assignments. Some of these indicate that students are less active in learning mathematics online. One of the efforts that teachers can make is through the application of various interactive media. Therefore, this paper aims to review and examine the implementation of various interactive media as an effort to stimulate the activeness of the students in online mathematics learning. Using descriptive qualitative research methods, it is evident that the implementation of various interactive media can enourage students to be active in online mathematics learning. The implementation of  various interactive media make students pay attention, so they can be encouraged to be actively involved in the learning process. Thus, students can be led to maximaze themselves in every opportunity to glorify God, including in the mathematics learning process. In the application of interactive media, teachers are advised to record every development of student responses for the improvement and development of interactive media.BAHASA INDONESIA ABSTRACT: Keaktifan siswa menjadi hal penting dan mendasar yang dapat menunjang keefektifan pembelajaran matematika secara daring.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic requires teachers to conduct online learning. Monotonous online learning using the lecture method causes a lack of interaction between teachers and students, causing confusion. Thus we need a method that can facilitate the teacher to explain the material by involving students in learning. Thus, researchers use the lecture method plus question and answer as one way to overcome student confusion in online learning. In conducting research, researchers use descriptive qualitative methods that emphasize literature review. Giving the lecture method plus question and answer to overcome student confusion is a form of teacher responsibility to God. Through the provision of this method the teacher can show his dedication to God by being responsible for overcoming students' confusion. The lecture plus question and answer method can overcome student confusion by providing space for students to ask questions or express their confusion in both synchronous and asynchronous learning. Researchers suggest teachers to continue to encourage students not to feel ashamed and afraid to be considered stupid when students express their confusion. The teacher must also give appreciation in the form of applause, words of praise, and so on as a form of motivation to students so that they can express their confusion.Keywords: confusion, responsibility, lecture method plus question and answer

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between affective mathematical disposition (MD) and numeracy among pre-service mathematics teachers in Indonesia. The research examines explicitly how different dimensions of MD influence students' numeracy skills. A total of 237 participants took part in a semester-long numeracy enrichment program, followed by a numeracy assessment and an MD questionnaire based on Beyers' seven affective dimensions. Using multiple linear regression analysis, the findings indicate that MD significantly affects numeracy (p = 0.018), with an adjusted R-squared value of 0.571, indicating that 57.1% of the variance in numeracy scores can be explained by MD. Notably, the dimensions "Nature in Mathematics" (β = 0.584, p = 0.033) and "Mathematics Self-Concept" (β = 0.612, p = 0.016) exhibit significant positive influences on numeracy. Highlighting the role of conceptual understanding and self-perception in mathematical learning. These results align with the program’s design, which emphasized conceptual understanding and reflective self-assessment elements directly tied to both dimensions. However, other dimensions, including "Usefulness," "Worthwhileness," "Sensibleness," "Attitude," and "Math Anxiety," did not show significant effects. This may be due to participants' shared perceptions as mathematics teacher candidates, resulting in low variability on those dimensions, or due to possible mediation effects (e.g., motivation) that were not examined in this study. The findings suggest that interventions aiming to strengthen numeracy should focus on enhancing students’ understanding of mathematical structures and fostering a strong self-concept as mathematics learners. This study contributes to mathematics education by highlighting the specific affective dimensions that most directly relate to numeracy, providing a nuanced perspective for teacher educators seeking to balance cognitive and affective development in their curriculum.   Keywords: mathematical disposition, affective domain, numeracy, pre-service mathematics teachers, mathematics education.

Abstract

Mathematical literacy is increasingly recognized as a crucial competency for individuals in navigating real-world problems. However, there remains a gap in understanding how well prospective teachers—future facilitators of learning—possess and apply this competency. This study aims to explore the mathematical literacy levels of prospective teachers and examine their readiness to teach in the context of 21st-century education. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed, involving 241 prospective teachers in many fields as participants. Data were collected using a mathematical literacy test based on four core domains—Numbers and Their Operations, Algebra, Geometry and Measurement, and Data Analysis and Probability—along with an open-ended questionnaire to gain deeper insights into participants' perspectives. The results revealed that the overall mathematical literacy level was relatively low, with an average score of 44.69 out of 100. The highest achievement was found in the domain of Numbers and Their Operations, followed by Data Analysis and Probability, then Algebra, with Geometry and Measurement as the lowest-performing domain. Despite acknowledging the importance of mathematical literacy, many students still face difficulties applying their knowledge to real-life contexts. These findings underscore the urgency to reevaluate teacher education curricula, particularly in systematically integrating mathematical literacy development across relevant courses. Strengthening these aspects may enhance teaching readiness and support prospective teachers in fostering literacy-based learning in future classrooms.
