Abstract

The present study discusses the effect of the realistic mathematics education learning model on the mathematics learning outcomes of grade II students of State Elementary School 173472 Sijarango, Pakkat District, Humbang Hasundutan in the academic year 2023/2024. The independent variable is the realistic mathematics education learning model (X) and the dependent variable is the students' mathematics learning outcomes (Y). The research method used is an experimental method with a quantitative research type and the number of research samples was 27 students based on the purposive sample technique. The data for the realistic mathematics education learning model was obtained from a questionnaire distributed to students and the students' mathematics learning outcomes were obtained from the students' Pretest and Posttest scores in the academic year 2023/2024. The students' mathematics learning outcomes show that the average score of class II Pretest students is 58.51 while the average Posttest score is 88.33. Furthermore, the results of the hypothesis testing show that the t_count is 4.570 while the t_table is 2.052. It is proven that Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. Through the t-test, it can be concluded that there is a significant positive influence between the realistic mathematics education learning model on the mathematics learning outcomes of class II students.

Abstract

This paper investigates the development of critical thinking skills in Indonesian mathematics learning, which focuses on the analysis of the 2013 curriculum revised in 2018. The objective is to assess how well current mathematics materials for 3rd-grade elementary students promote 21st-century skills, especially for the 4C skills, namely critical thinking and problem solving, communication, collaboration, creativity, and innovation. The research highlights the necessity of innovative approaches in teaching mathematics to enhance these skills. The analysis indicates that the mathematics content in the thematic books supports the development of 4C skills. Additionally, the researcher suggested implementing Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) as an effective innovation and aligning RME's characteristics with the required 4C skills to better prepare students for 21st-century challenges. While Indonesia's low PISA scores in mathematics underscore the need for improvement. The study in this paper provides insights into curriculum enhancements that can lead to better educational outcomes.

Abstract

This paper discusses the influence of the contextual teaching and learning model on students’ learning outcomes on the beautiful theme of togetherness in Grade IV at SD Negeri 065013 Medan in the academic year 2023/2024. This study uses the quantitative method. The research population involved 30 grade IV students at SD 065013 Medan. The results imply that before the treatment students had an average learning outcome of 58.80 and the students did not meet the KKM. In addition, after being given the treatment, students had an average learning outcome of 82.63. With a normality testing result of 0.200, the conclusion is that the data are normally distributed. The result of the correlation test is 0.761, which means rcount (0.761) > rtable (0.361), then Ha is accepted. Therefore, there is a significant influence between the use of the contextual teaching and learning model on the student’s learning outcomes in grade IV at SD Negeri 065013 Medan. It can be seen from the results of the t-test where the tcount 6.214 > ttable 2.042 so Ha is accepted. This shows that there is a significant positive influence from the use of the contextual teaching and learning model on students’ learning outcomes on the beautiful theme of togetherness in grade IV at SD Negeri 065013 Medan in the academic year 2023/2024

Abstract

The system of linear equations of two variables is contextual material in learning mathematics. Yet, there are facts that show there are still errors and difficulties experienced by students in the problem of the system of linear equations of two variables. The research purpose is to conduct a literature review on the skills, errors, and difficulties of students on the problem of the system of linear equations of two variables. This research uses the SLR (Systematic Literature Review) method. Data collection was carried out by reviewing all articles related to math skills, errors, and difficulties of students on the problem of the system of linear equations of two variables published from 2019 to 2023. Based on the research results, it was found that students' skills to solve the problem of two-variable linear equation system was still low. Students still made many mistakes in understanding the problem and converting it into a mathematical model, carrying out the plan or process, performing calculations, and often ignoring the evaluation of the results obtained.

Abstract

The minimal availability of learning media about basic hair cutting and the lack of maximum student learning outcomes are the basis for developing e-books. This research aims to develop e-book media in basic hair-cutting development courses for cosmetology education students. The development model used is the ADDIE model. The data collection technique uses a questionnaire. The result of the media needs analysis carried out on students was 96% and the lecturer was 98%, which indicates that media are needed for learning basic hair-cutting. Material expert validation’s average percentage was 88.20%, which is in the very good category. Media expert validation average result was 93.88%, which is in the very good category. The small-scale trial was 92% with the very good category. The medium group trial indicated 92.88% with the very good category. In addition, the large group trial was 94.12% with the very good category. Therefore, e-book media is suitable for use as a learning medium in basic hair-cutting courses. The implication of developing this E-Book is that students can practice and repeat basic hair-cutting independently, and can attract students' interest in the learning process.

Abstract

Karimun Regency in Riau Islands Province is one of the regencies as a tin producer in Indonesia. This study aims to describe the impact of tin mining activities in Karimun Regency and its integration into science learning. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques through interviews, observations, and literature studies. The research results indicate that tin mining activities on land would create former tin mine pits that have positive and negative impacts. The positive impact is that these former tin mine pits could be a source of income for the community like being a source of water during the dry season and a tourist attraction. While the negative impact is that it could damage the environment and require a relatively long time to recover. Efforts need to be made to utilize these former tin mine pits properly so that they can function properly and they can benefit the community. Therefore, science learning based on the environment of tin mining activities needs to be integrated into the learning process in schools so that later it can increase students' knowledge about the importance of an attitude of protecting the environment and having sustainable environmental awareness.

Abstract

This qualitative descriptive study aims to determine the needs of students and lecturers for team-based, project-based teaching materials in interpersonal and communication skills courses. Data collection was obtained through observation, interviews and document study. The results of observations during the implementation of interpersonal and communication skills courses in obtaining an overview of students’ public communication experiences. Students are not used to it and seem passive when communicating in public. Students also have difficulty adapting their communication style to suit various interlocutors. The analysis of the questionnaires revealed that most did not have teaching materials for interpersonal communication skills courses and admitted that they needed them for courses in these subjects. Meanwhile, interview data supported by study documents revealed that lecturers and students need open materials packaged specifically for implementing interpersonal and communication skills courses. Teaching materials need to be presented in a structured manner and be able to create collaborative learning. Open materials can utilize digital media. Teaching materials are expected to improve students’ interpersonal and communication skills. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that it is necessary to develop teaching materials that are integrated with the team-based project model by utilizing digital media.
