Abstract

Student teams-achievement divisions (STAD) is a cooperative learning strategy in which small groups of learners with different abilities work together to achieve a shared goal. This study investigates the effectiveness of employing STAD amongst vocational and technical engineering (VTE) students. The objectives are to identify if using STAD in the classroom enhances students’ learning and improves their performance and attitude toward cooperative learning strategies, and also to identify their learning preferences with regard to studying individually or cooperatively. The study draws from quantitative data from pre- and post-tests, student attitude questionnaires, rubric evaluation and group achievement test to assess students’ performance in groups. A paired t-test was conducted, with the results demonstrating a significant difference between the students’ scores in the pre- and post-tests, indicating that STAD cooperative learning improved student performance in mathematics skills and the learning outcomes.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to design a learning trajectory (develop mathematics reasoning skills) for junior high school statistics material to be used in eighth-grade classrooms. This design research study comprises three stages: preliminary design, experimental design and Retrospective Analysis. The subjects in this study were eighth-grade learners in a public junior-high school in Wonogiri City. Data collection methods included observation, interview and tests. Based on the results of the retrospective analysis, a learning trajectory for statistics material with the traditional Congklak game in application combines both informal and formal activities. In informal activities, through the Congklak game experiments conducted. These helped to form, mode, medium, examination, quartiles and semi-interquartile range interpretation concepts. In formal activities, based on the experimental results learners decided how to define mean (average), mode (the number of times a value appears in given data), medium and quartiles. The statistical results show that there are differences in mathematics reasoning skills between teaching with a learning trajectory assisted by Congklak and the direct method. The marginal mean for learning path is 71.57, while it is 62.66, and this outside the margin of error. This suggests that by application of a realistic mathematics approach using learning path driven Congklak traditional game of so can improve learners' mathematics reasoning ability.
