Abstract

Differentiated instruction, a key component of the contemporary learning paradigm, aims to tailor teaching strategies to students' varied needs. Despite its pedagogical relevance, this approach has yet to become a central focus among classroom practices. This study examines the readiness of junior high school mathematics teachers in Pekanbaru City to implement differentiated instruction. Employing a descriptive quantitative design, data were collected from 30 participants via an online questionnaire. The instrument included closed-ended items measured on a Likert scale across four dimensions: (1) conceptual understanding of differentiated instruction, (2) readiness in instructional planning, (3) readiness in classroom implementation, and (4) readiness in assessment practices. Open-ended items were also included to explore implementation challenges. The results reveal a low overall level of understanding and readiness, with an average score of 2.49 across all measured dimensions. Key barriers include limited access to information, insufficient time allocation, and unsupportive learning environments. This study provides empirical insights into instructional preparedness and practical constraints, offering a basis for future interventions aimed at strengthening the adoption of differentiated instruction in mathematics education.

Abstract

This study explores ethnomathematical elements in Jogi Dance, a traditional Malay art from Batam, identifying opportunities for its use in contextual geometry education. Using qualitative ethnographic design, data were collected through systematic observation of seven main dance movements, in-depth interviews, visual documentation, and literature review. Analysis employed the Spradley model to map cultural structure and emerging mathematical concepts. Results revealed that Jogi Dance embodies concepts of angles, lines, triangles, circles, rotations, translations, reflections, number patterns, and periodic functions reflected in movements, floor patterns, and dancer formations. These findings open opportunities to develop various learning media, including contextual geometry worksheets based on dance movements, floor pattern diagram modules representing transformations, motion analysis videos, and digital modeling using GeoGebra. Integrating local culture through Jogi Dance helps students understand abstract mathematical concepts concretely while supporting cultural preservation and character formation aligned with the Pancasila Student Profile. Although exploratory-descriptive, the mapping of ethnomathematical concepts and potentials serves as a fundamental stage before developing learning models or effectiveness tests, providing a solid foundation for pedagogical innovations that educators and teachers can maximize.

Abstract

Numeracy skills are essential for daily life and must be mastered by students. However, data from PISA and TIMSS indicate that Indonesian students' numeracy skills are still low. One contributing factor is the limited availability of numeracy-based learning materials, which reduces students' familiarity with numeracy-oriented problems. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a numeracy e-module on geometry for eighth-grade junior high school students. This study employed a research and development (R&D) method using the ADDIE model, consisting of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation stages. The participants included students and teachers from SMPN 2 Banda Aceh. Data were analyzed using qualitative techniques to describe interview results and quantitative techniques to analyze validation, readability, and practicality data. The results showed that the e-module achieved an average score of 4.37 for material presentation and assessment and 4.53 for media and language aspects, both categorized as very valid. The practicality evaluation indicated positive responses, with average scores of 4.46 from teachers and 4.35 from students, both categorized as very practical. These findings indicate that the developed numeracy e-module on geometry is valid and practical for use in junior high school mathematics learning.

Abstract

Problem-solving ability has been recognized as a key competency in 21st-century learning, particularly in statistics education, where students are required to analyze data and interpret results accurately. Integrating digital tools such as R software is considered essential for supporting these competencies, as they enable students to explore data, perform computations, and visualize outputs effectively. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of the Think-Pair-Share model assisted by R software (TPS-R) in improving students' problem-solving abilities in statistics courses. A quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental design was employed, involving two groups: an experimental class applying TPS-R and a control class applying the Think-Pair-Share model without R software (TPS-WR). The results showed a significant difference in problem-solving abilities between the two groups, with the TPS-R class demonstrating higher performance (Mann-Whitney U = 215.0, Z=−2.428, p = 0.017). These findings indicate that integrating TPS with R software serves as an effective instructional strategy in statistics courses, provided that instructors manage class time efficiently and guide students' learning processes appropriately.

Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the problem-solving abilities of low-performing students in addressing Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) questions on sequences and series based on the stages proposed by Krulik and Rudnick. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed in this research. Thirty senior high school students completed a problem-solving test, from which two students who obtained the lowest scores were purposively selected for in-depth analysis and semi-structured interviews. Data were collected through written tests and interviews and analyzed using Miles' stages of qualitative data analysis. The results indicated that at the read and think stage, students were able to identify relevant information but demonstrated a limited understanding of the relationships among the given data. At the explore and plan stage, students attempted to organize information but encountered difficulties, particularly when dealing with sequence-related problems. At the select a strategy stage, students identified the appropriate formula; however, they showed hesitation in applying it correctly. At the find an answer stage, students performed computational procedures but often produced inaccurate results. Finally, at the reflect and extend stage, students tended to draw conclusions without verifying the correctness of their solutions. Overall, the main difficulties were evident in conceptual understanding, consistency in strategy application, and reflective evaluation.

Abstract

Geometric intuition is a cognitive skill that supports students in solving geometry problems, one of the more challenging branches of mathematics. This study explores students' ability to create and manipulate geometric figures when working on Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) problems involving cuboids. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, the study involved 29 eighth-grade students. Data were collected through HOTS-based problem-solving tests and validated interview protocols. Students' abilities to mentally construct and transform geometric figures were assessed using two indicators: (1) visualizing shapes based on imagination and (2) generating new geometric configurations. The findings revealed that most students were unaware of alternative geometric forms embedded within the problem context. The study concludes that students across all performance levels, from low to high, demonstrated the ability to visualize shapes based on imagination. However, only students in the medium category were able to generate a new shape in one problem, whereas those in the high category successfully created new shapes in two problems.
