Abstract

The tutoring phenomenon has been discussed from multiple angles. Sometimes, math tutors, as part of the tutoring system, are framed as the contributors of shadow education and the parasite of the national educational system. We claim that some math tutors are financially vulnerable. Our paper serves to bring new nuances into the complexity of being math tutors during the Covid-19 pandemic time. In doing so, we employed the qualitative study method by elaboratively interviewing five Indonesian mathematics tutors during September 2021. Specifically, this article focused on three aspects related to math tutoring: challenges, adaptations, and success. By listening to their stories, we gained some insights. First, tutors who were struggling the most are the ones who come from a poor background and who work for middle-low-income students. Second, the cost of adapting to the new work environment as math tutors need to upgrade their devices is one of the contributing factors in transitioning from offline tutoring to online tutoring. Third, those who thrived are the ones who are familiar with online tutoring, already have decent devices which are sufficient for heavy online multi-tasking work, and are in the circle of upper-middle-income families. In retrospect, this research not only sheds light on social issues in our educational system but also raised some key practical issues of teaching mathematics online which may affect tutors with various backgrounds differently. All in all, our research is part of our endeavor to fight for math tutors’ welfare.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the results of observations which show that the results of the three-dimensional daily assessments and end-of-semester assessments are still not optimal. This is influenced by several factors, especially the student's interest in learning in class. They still have difficulty visualizing the three dimensions so in calculating the questions given, they still experience difficulties completing them. Three-dimensional material requires a good understanding of the shapes of three-dimensional space and related concepts. Therefore, the Augmented Reality (AR) feature is needed in the Geogebra application. This research aims to analyze students' learning interests by using the Augmented Reality (AR) feature in the Geogebra application. This research used a qualitative approach where the research subjects were 61 students consisting of 33 students in class XII IPA 1 and 28 students in class XII IPS 1 at SMAIT Raudhatul Jannah Cilegon. The research results show that the presentation of each indicator on the student interest scale questionnaire has an average of 80.19%, which means that almost all students already have an interest in learning three-dimensional material using the Augmented Reality (AR) feature in the Geogebra application. It is hoped that other researchers can develop the results of this research, as well as improve the quality of learning, especially in mathematics learning with the help of the Geogebra application to increase insight.
