Abstract

The teaching methods employed at SMA Muhammadiyah 1 Semarang still predominantly use lecture-based approaches, and the use of instructional media remains suboptimal. Students' mathematical problem-solving abilities are relatively low, as evidenced by their continued difficulties in modeling word problems into mathematical forms. This study aims to analyze the need for digital learning media to improve students' mathematical problem-solving skills. Digital learning media allow students to access materials flexibly while also providing interactive tools designed to enhance problem-solving skills, particularly in understanding complex mathematical concepts such as sequences and series. The research method is descriptive qualitative, with the research instrument being a questionnaire using a 1-4 Likert scale. The questionnaire was distributed via Google Forms to 69 tenth-grade students at SMA Muhammadiyah Semarang, located in Semarang City, Central Java. After completing the questionnaire, in-depth interviews were conducted with students to support the collected data. A descriptive qualitative method was chosen because this approach enables researchers to explore students' needs and perceptions regarding the use of digital learning media more deeply. The findings indicate a lack of effective use of instructional media (an average score of 1.95 out of 4), significant challenges in problem-solving (an average score of 2.61 out of 4), and difficulties in understanding the material on sequences and series (an average score of 2.57 out of 4). The results of the study underscore the need for the development of digital learning media to address students' difficulties in understanding sequences and series, as well as to enhance their problem-solving skills. Digital learning media provide interactive materials and exercises specifically designed for the topic of sequences and series, which can be implemented at SMA Muhammadiyah 1 Semarang, where students can access materials and practice problems via mobile phones during lessons or as homework to support independent learning.

Abstract

In the context of enhancing students' mathematical communication skills, innovative teaching methods such as project-based learning (PBL) integrated with E-modules offer promising results. This research aims to assess the impact of project-based learning (PBL) using E-modules on mathematical communication skills, specifically in understanding graphic representations. The research population consists of third-semester students in the Informatics Engineering program at Universitas Duta Bangsa, Surakarta, during the 2023/2024 academic year. The sample includes all 40 students from class 22A1. The measurement tools used in this study are learning achievement tests and mathematical communication ability tests. Data were analyzed using simple regression analysis with the product-moment correlation coefficient formula. This study employs correlation analysis to examine the relationship between the independent variable, Project-Based Learning using E-modules (X), and the dependent variable, mathematical communication skills (Y). The results show that project-based learning with E-modules has a strong positive correlation of 76% with students' mathematical communication skills. However, 24% of the variance in students' communication skills is influenced by other factors. This study concludes that integrating PBL with E-modules is highly effective in enhancing students' mathematical communication skills. Nonetheless, additional factors such as self-efficacy and mathematical reasoning also play significant roles in improving these skills.

Abstract

There is a growing need for students not only to develop higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) but also to retain them. Retaining HOTS enables students to effectively apply these skills when needed, particularly in solving complex problems in subjects like mathematics. However, many students struggle to retain these skills due to the prevalence of conventional teaching methods in classrooms. Therefore, this research aims to examine the impact of Minecraft-based learning in mathematics on the retention of HOTS. Using purposive sampling, 33 Year 5 primary school students from a single intact class were selected as participants. A test comprising 15 multiple-choice questions served as the research instrument, administered during the pretest, posttest, and delayed posttest. The data collected were analyzed using a one-way repeated measures ANOVA. The findings revealed that learning mathematics through Minecraft, a sandbox-style digital game set in an open world, significantly improved students' learning outcomes in both immediate and delayed assessments compared to their pre-assessment performance. Notably, the HOTS domain of analyzing showed the greatest improvement. These results suggest that incorporating Minecraft into mathematics instruction is particularly effective in enhancing and retaining HOTS.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine how junior high school students use refractive thinking to solve algebraic problems based on their mathematical skill levels, specifically high and low. Refractive thinking involves a phase where students rethink and modify their approaches to solving algebraic problems. This qualitative study employs interviews and observational methods, with participants consisting of students with both high and low mathematical abilities. The results indicate that students with high mathematical ability navigate the stages of refractive thinking more effectively, including problem identification, strategy formulation, and evaluation. These students are often able to quickly identify errors and experiment with multiple strategies to arrive at better solutions. In contrast, students with low mathematical ability struggle with problem identification and tend to persist with initial, less effective approaches. These findings highlight significant differences in the refractive thinking processes of the two groups, underscoring the need to develop instructional strategies that foster reflective thinking skills, particularly for students with lower mathematical aptitude.
