Abstract

In the era of globalization, critical thinking skills in mathematics are essential. However, mathematics is often perceived as difficult and monotonous, prompting the need for teachers to employ engaging approaches, such as Realistic Mathematics Education (RME). RME connects mathematical concepts with real-life situations to enhance students' understanding and critical thinking skills. This study aims to analyze effectiveness of RME in improving junior high school students' critical thinking skills through a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) using the PRISMA approach. Data were collected from articles published between 2015 and 2025 in the WoS and Scopus databases, with 26 articles identified. The results indicate a growing number of RME-related publications, peaking in 2023 (10 articles). The most common research method was quasi-experimental (54%), with geometry as the primary topic (6 studies). Implemented strategies included e-worksheets, RME-based teaching materials, RME learning media, and RME learning models. This study confirms the effectiveness of RME in enhancing students’ critical thinking skills.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of self-efficacy, learning styles, and learning discipline on students’ mathematics learning outcomes at Muhammadiyah Mlati Vocational School, Sleman. The research employed a quantitative approach using a survey method. The research instrument was a scale that had been validated through expert judgment and tested for its validity and reliability. Data were collected from 150 respondents and analyzed using SPSS-25 through prerequisite tests (normality, multicollinearity, heteroscedasticity, and linearity) and hypothesis testing using regression analysis. The results of the validity and reliability tests indicated that all instrument items were valid and reliable. The data were normally distributed, free from multicollinearity and heteroscedasticity, and met the assumption of linearity among variables. Descriptive analysis showed that the average scores for all variables were relatively high, exceeding 75. Regression analysis revealed that self-efficacy, learning styles, and learning discipline had a significant influence on mathematics learning outcomes, both simultaneously and partially. This study highlights the importance of strengthening students' internal factors in supporting academic achievement, particularly in mathematics learning at the vocational high school level. The findings are expected to serve as a reference for teachers in designing learning strategies that consider students’ individual characteristics

Abstract

This research aims to develop a 3D storybook using realistic mathematics education (RME) approach and augmented reality (AR) technology to enhance students' spatial ability. We used the ‘Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation’ (ADDIE) development model and involved 34 eighth-grade students of SMP N 15 Yogyakarta – a public junior high school in Indonesia. During the development, we underwent several interviews, observations, asking experts’ validation to the content and the media, asking students’ response to the product, and tests related to the students' spatial ability. The results suggest that the content validation got an average score of 109 (good criteria), the media validation got an average score of 48.16 (good criteria), and the students response got an average score of 78.36 (very good criteria). At the end of the stage, there are still found an obstacle during the testing of the 3D storybook, namely the time required to load the 3D content. It makes some students encounter difficulty to access it, indicating the need for further development. However, the final product could facilitate the students to exercise their spatial ability using the 3D storybook while learning geometry.

Abstract

This study is a Classroom Action Research (CAR) aimed at improving the understanding of multiplication concepts among Grade II A students of SD N Koroulon 2 Sleman through a Deep Learning approach assisted by coin-based media. The research was conducted in two cycles using the spiral model developed by Kemmis and McTaggart. In the Cycle I, the learning process focused on using coin games as a concrete medium to build conceptual understanding of multiplication. The results showed that only 68% of students achieved learning mastery. Discrepancies were still observed in the achievement indicators, particularly in converting repeated addition into multiplication sentences. Based on the reflection results, improvements were implemented in the Cycle II through strategies such as paired group work, varied learning activities, and the inclusion of a "semi-abstract" stage in the instructional process. The results of the second cycle showed a significant improvement: learning mastery reached 89%, and all learning achievement indicators exceeded 80%. This study demonstrates that the Deep Learning approach, supported by contextual media and adaptive teaching strategies, can meaningfully enhance students' conceptual understanding of multiplication. This success was also supported by effective classroom communication and the cultivation of reflective thinking habits throughout the learning process.

Abstract

The main aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of collaborative Problem-Based Learning (PBL) approaches, whether carried out in group settings or in pairs, by examining student performance in understanding inverse matrix concepts, their proficiency in critical thinking, and their levels of anxiety. Using a quasi-experimental approach with a pretest-post-test non-equivalent comparison-group design, the study focused on students from XI Science classes at Kasihan 1 State High School, with classes XI Science 2 and XI Science 3 selected randomly as samples. Pretest and post-test measures were administered to both groups, evaluating their performance in matrix learning, critical thinking, and anxiety levels. The effectiveness of collaborative PBL was analyzed using independent sample t-tests. Results indicated that collaborative PBL, whether in group or pair formats, led to improvements in students' achievement in inverse matrix learning, critical thinking skills, and a decrease in anxiety levels. Additionally, collaborative group PBL proved to be more effective than collaborative pair PBL across these variables.
