Abstract

This study aims to describe student’s mathematical reasoning based on Field Dependent and Field Independent cognitive styles on the material equations and inequalities of the linear absolute value of one variable. This research is a descriptive research with a qualitative approach. The subjects of this research were 4 students of class XI IPA 6 SMA Negeri 1 Sumberpucung with the category of 2 students Field Dependent and 2 students Field Independent. Collecting data in this study is the GEFT test, mathematical reasoning tests, interviews, and documentation. The results showed that students with the Field Dependent on the indicators put forward assumptions about writing down information on the problem using verbal sentences. In the indicator of doing mathematical manipulation students use illustrative images and their own understanding based on question’s information to solve problems correctly. However, on absolute value inequalities, Field Dependent students made mistakes in making mathematical sentences. This affects indicator drawing conclusions from a statement. On the indicator of checking the validity  arguments, student tend not to re-check their answers. Meanwhile, students with the Field Independent on the indicator put forward the conjecture of writing down information on the problem using mathematical sentences. In the indicators of doing mathematical manipulation, Field Independent students use the concept of absolute value to solve problems. For indicators to draw conclusions from a statement Field Independent students are classified as able to draw conclusions correctly and re-check the answers obtained on the indicators to check the validity of the arguments.Keywords: mathematical reasoning, cognitive style, field dependent, field independent

Abstract

Mathematics is a form of knowledge that is closely related to everyday life. Although many mathematical concepts are inherently connected to daily experiences, students’ understanding of the material still often encounters various difficulties, particularly in topics such as geometry, graphs of linear equations, and quadratic functions. Based on this understanding, this study aims to identify the functions, symbolic meanings, and mathematical concepts found in Genta, Tengkuluk, and Panji, as well as how this knowledge can be utilized in ethnomathematics-based learning and local wisdom values as an effort to enrich contextual learning resources that are rooted in culture. This research employs a qualitative descriptive approach. The research subjects consist of two curators from the National Museum of Indonesia and one religious expert from the Banten community. Data were collected using instruments comprising observation sheets, interview guidelines, and documentation. The data were analyzed using the qualitative data analysis process proposed by Miles and Huberman. The data reduction process was carried out by simplifying the results of interviews, observations, and documentation according to aspects related to mathematical concepts as well as religious and cultural values found in the heritage of the Banten Sultanate. The data were then presented visually in the form of photographs, tables, and narrative descriptions illustrating the relationships between heritage objects, mathematical concepts, and cultural and religious values. The final stage involved drawing conclusions from the research findings. Overall, the findings indicate that the integration of mathematical concepts within cultural artifacts provides meaningful potential for developing contextual and culturally grounded ethnomathematics-based learning resources.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the differences in the average learning outcomes of students taught using the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model assisted by GeoGebra and those taught using direct instruction on the topic of three-dimensional geometry in Grade IX. The research was motivated by the low student achievement, which is caused by difficulties in understanding the properties of three-dimensional shapes as well as limitations in the use of media and the application of less appropriate teaching models. This study is a quantitative research with a Quasi-Experimental approach, specifically the nonequivalent control group design. The research sample consisted of 128 students, divided into two experimental classes and two control classes, selected through random sampling techniques. The data collection instrument was a test administered in the form of pretest and post-test, which had been validated by experts. Descriptive analysis results showed that the average post-test scores in the experimental classes (80.69 and 78.63) were higher than those in the control classes (74.38 and 73.28). The hypothesis testing using the independent sample t-test indicated a significance value of 0.000 < 0.05, thus it can be concluded that there is a significant difference between the average learning outcomes of students in the two groups. Furthermore, the N-gain analysis results showed that the improvement in learning outcomes in the experimental classes was 0.47 (medium category), which was higher than that in the control classes at 0.36. Therefore, the PBL model assisted by GeoGebra is effective in improving students’ mathematics learning outcomes on the topic of three-dimensional geometry.Keywords: problem-based learning, GeoGebra, learning outcomes, three-dimensional shapes.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of a differentiated learning module based on Problem-Based Learning (PBL) in improving students’ mathematical problem-solving skills on the topic of Systems of Two-Variable Linear Equations (SPLDV). Using a quantitative approach with a pretest–posttest control group design, the research involved an experimental class that received instruction using the differentiated PBL-based module and a control class that followed conventional learning. Primary data were obtained from pretest and posttest scores, while secondary data consisted of expert validations and student response questionnaires. The results showed that the module met the feasibility criteria based on evaluations from material and media experts. Statistical analysis indicated that the experimental class demonstrated significantly higher improvement than the control class. The independent t-test confirmed a significant difference in posttest scores, the classical mastery level exceeded the 75% threshold, and the N-Gain score fell into the high category. These findings suggest that the differentiated PBL-based learning module is effective and suitable for enhancing students’ mathematical problem-solving abilities
