Abstract

The main purpose of this research is to find out the advantages and disadvantages of the sevima edlink application through application in lectures using mixed methods. The advantages and disadvantages obtained are expected to be input for the university for the development of a better campus LMS. A good LMS will support the implementation of good MBKM through distance learning programs. In addition to finding out the advantages and disadvantages of Edlink, another important point is to involve students including lecturers involved to actively participate in using learning technology. This is one of the important points of this research. Tujuan utama dari penelitian ini adalah mencari tahu kelebihan dan kekurangan aplikasi sevima edlink melalui penerapan dalam perkuliahan yang menggunakan metode campuran. Kelebihan dan kekurangan yang diperoleh diharapkan dapat menjadi masukan bagi universitas demi pengembangan LMS kampus yang lebih baik. LMS yang baik akan mendukung terlaksananya MBKM yang baik melalui program belajar jarak jauh. Selain mencari tahu kelebihan dan kekurangan Edlink, poin penting lainnya adalah melibatkan mahasiswa termasuk dosen yang terlibat untuk ikut aktif dalam menggunakan teknologi pembelajaran. Hal ini yang menjadi salah satu poin penting dilakukannya penelitian ini.

Abstract

The main objective of this research is to produce an LMS that can support synchronous, asynchronous and blended learning systems, especially in the Mathematics Education study program at Universitas Sembilanbelas November Kolaka (USN Kolaka). This is very important because USN Kolaka currently does not have an independent LMS while the existence of an LMS greatly supports the implementation of MBKM, especially in lecture programs outside the University. The LMS that will be created is an opensource-based LMS that also supports the use of the Woocommerce system. Specifically, the course that will be included in the system is the Mathematics Learning Media course. However, if possible, this LMS will be developed into an online mathematics learning center throughout Indonesia, starting from elementary school to university level. To develop this LMS requires several stages. The first stage is to analyze what essential materials will be included in the system first. Second, designing or designing the LMS interface, menu layout, including how to deliver the material, The third stage realizes what has been planned. The realization stage consists of product trials, evaluation and revision. The last stage is the implementation stage. This stage of development is known as the plompt model. From these stages, an opensource LMS is obtained that is suitable for use as an online learning platform. It can include various lesson materials. Especially for this research, the teaching materials included have also gone through a validation process so that both the material and the media are ready to be used for the teaching and learning process.

Abstract

Mathematics learning at the junior secondary school level continues to face challenges related to the limited connection between mathematical concepts and students’ real-life experiences, particularly in geometry and measurement topics. This study aims to explore mathematical concepts embedded in the construction of subsidized house walls and to model the calculation of material volume and cost estimation as a real-world context for mathematics learning at the junior secondary school level. A qualitative descriptive approach with an exploratory design was employed. The object of the study was a subsidized house located in the Citra Latambaga Housing Complex, Latambaga District, Kolaka Regency, with a standardized building size of 6 m × 6 m and uniform room layouts. Data were collected through observation, measurement, and documentation, and analyzed using simple mathematical modeling aligned with the junior secondary school mathematics curriculum. The findings indicate that wall construction activities involve mathematical concepts such as the volume of rectangular prisms, unit conversion, ratio, estimation, and material cost calculation. The cost estimation results reveal significant differences between the use of red bricks and lightweight concrete blocks for the same wall volume, providing opportunities to introduce simple optimization problems in junior secondary school mathematics learning. This study concludes that the construction of subsidized house walls constitutes an authentic and meaningful context for teaching geometry and mathematical modeling, thereby supporting more contextualized and relevant mathematics learning at the junior secondary school level.

Abstract

Mathematical modeling is a learning approach that emphasizes the connection between mathematical concepts and real-life situations. However, geometry instruction in junior high schools is still frequently presented in an abstract manner and lacks meaningful real-world contexts. This study aims to examine residential floor tiling as a mathematical modeling context for geometry learning at the junior high school level. The research was conducted using a subsidized house type 36 located in the Citra Latambaga Housing Complex, Latambaga District, Kolaka Regency, focusing on floor tiling activities involving various tile sizes and materials. A qualitative research design with a mathematical modeling approach was employed, encompassing problem identification, mathematical model formulation, model solution, and interpretation of results. The findings indicate that residential floor tiling involves multiple geometry concepts aligned with the junior high school curriculum, including area measurement, ratios, unit conversion, estimation, and mathematical decision-making. Variations in tile sizes and materials generate multiple mathematical solutions, encouraging students to engage in critical thinking, compare alternative strategies, and interpret mathematical results within a real-life context. These results demonstrate that floor tiling provides meaningful learning experiences and supports the development of students’ mathematical modeling competencies. This study contributes theoretically to the body of research on mathematical modeling by introducing a familiar real-world context and offers practical implications for teachers in designing contextual and applicable geometry instruction at the junior high school level.
