Abstract

In today’s digital era, many students exhibit low interest in mathematics, which often hampers their overall academic performance. This study investigates the effectiveness of a Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) approach in enhancing students’ engagement and enthusiasm for mathematics. The research involved 58 sixth-grade students from two elementary schools in Palembang and Tangerang, Indonesia. A quantitative design was employed, utilizing pre-tests, post-tests, feedback sheets, and structured questionnaires to assess changes in student participation and understanding. The findings revealed a substantial improvement in students’ comprehension and motivation, with average scores increasing from 58.21 (pre-test) to 89.29 (post-test). Feedback and questionnaire analyses further demonstrated positive responses, with success rates exceeding 78% and 82%, respectively. These results suggest that integrating CTL strategies into mathematics instruction can effectively promote active participation and deepen conceptual understanding. The study recommends that educators adopt interactive learning models to foster stronger engagement in mathematics.

Abstract

Entrepreneurial intention (EI) has become a central focus in understanding how students transform learning experiences into entrepreneurial behavior, particularly amid the transition from the Fourth to the emerging Fifth Industrial Revolution. This preliminary study explores the determinants of perceived EI among postgraduate students in Indonesia, emphasizing the mediating role of Entrepreneurial Education on Artificial Intelligence (EEOAIN) as an integral component of the curriculum designed to prepare students for business start-up initiatives. A qualitative approach was employed using semi-structured, one-on-one interviews with eight postgraduate students representing various provinces and disciplines, including management, computer science, and education. The discussions aimed to uncover factors that strengthen entrepreneurial intention and to explore how individual psychological traits: Self-Efficacy (SE), Leadership Skills (LS), Digital Skills (DS), Work Experience (WE), and Perceived Stress (PST), influence EI within the rapidly evolving digital learning ecosystem. The findings reveal that EEOAIN is perceived as a transformative driver that enhances students’ readiness for entrepreneurial activity through exposure to AI-based innovations. Perceived University Support (PUS) and Positive Emotions (POEM) are identified as moderating factors that reinforce entrepreneurial intentions, thereby fostering entrepreneurial development and expanding employment opportunities for Indonesians. PUS acts as an external enabler by providing mentoring, resources, and social capital, while POEM functions as an internal psychological catalyst that promotes resilience and creativity. Collectively, these preliminary insights validate the conceptual model and provide empirical grounding for future quantitative investigations. This study offers initial evidence supporting the integration of technological, institutional, and emotional dimensions in shaping entrepreneurial intentions within higher education in developing-country contexts.
