Abstract

The objective of this study was to observe the effect of Connecting, Organizing, Reflecting, and Extending (CORE) instruction model by work card toward students’ mathematical problem-solving skill. The research method was quasi-experiment using non-equivalent post-test only control group design. All classes in seventh grade become the population in SMP Negeri 1 Klari. Two-stage sampling technique, namely purposive sampling and cluster random sampling technique, were used to select VII-A as the experimental class who treated with the CORE instruction model by work card and VII-B as the control class who treated with direct instruction model. Students’ mathematical problem-solving skill was measured by the test which created based on problem-solving skill indicators. The hypothesis was tested using independent sample t-test with a significance value of 0.05. The result of the research shown that there was a significant difference between the experimental and the control class. There was t count = 4.693 > t table = 1.667, so H0 was rejected. This result was indicated that the average of the students’ problem-solving skill who using CORE instruction model by work card higher than the average of the students’ problem-solving skill who using conventional instruction model. Therefore, it can be concluded that CORE instruction model by work card affected students’ mathematical problem-solving skill.

Abstract

The 21st century fosters competition and challenges in various fields, including education. Various efforts have been made to improve the education quality in Indonesia; one of them is the implementation of education based on Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). Critical thinking is also an important thing for success in the 21st century. This study aims to describe the critical thinking profile of students in solving mathematics problems through STEM learning. The method is qualitative research. The subjects are three students with high, medium, and low ability. Test, interview, and documentation are employed as the technique of collecting data. The results reveal that the high-ability student is able to achieve all aspects of critical thinking and she actively participates in learning and teaching activities through the STEM learning model. The medium-ability student only fulfils a number of aspects. Meanwhile, the low-ability student can only fulfil the interpretation aspect and she does not actively participate in the learning process. The results are supported by the interview result with the students. They state that STEM learning is fun, give them an opportunity to think critically and facilitate them in understanding the lesson easily.

Abstract

The present study is aimed at investigating the influence of Concrete Pictorial Abstract (CPA) approach to the improvement of elementary school students’ Self Efficacy Mathematics (SEM) seen from Mathematical Prior Ability (MPA) and as a whole. It is a quasiexperiment with control design of pre-scale and post-scale in Mathematics in the topic of 3 dimension geometry (3D geometry) to 119 elementary school students in Purwakarta Subang Karawang Bekasi (Purwasukasi), West Java. The present study is conducted by using two study groups, a group which implements CPA learning approach as the experimental group and group which implements conventional learning as the control group. Both descriptive and inferential data analysis show that the improvement of students’ SEM is better in students with CPA learning approach rather than students with conventional learning, seen as a whole and in every MPA.Therefore, CPA learning can improve elementary school students’ SEM.

Abstract

universities and teacher training programs. The importance of this component of mathematics is essential to bettering one’s economic prospects, gaining employment, keeping employment, and obtaining better employment. The main objective of this study was to determine the attitude of pre-service teachers towards statistics. This study also aimed to investigate the relationship between attitude towards statistics with gender, major and campus respectively. The participants comprised of 80 undergraduates from the Institute of Teacher Education (IPG) who were enrolled in the preparatory programme for the bachelor’s degree in education; whereby, they need to undertake the Basic Statistics Course. They consisted of 3 main majors, namely, Malay Language; Physical Education and Health; and Design and Technology from two campuses which are Bahasa Melayu Campus and Temenggong Ibrahim Campus. The Survey of Attitudes toward Statistics (SATS 36) which was translated into Malay language and contains 36 items that assess six constructs (r=.827) was used to answer the main objective of this study. The study found that the attitude of pre-service teachers towards statistics were ranked medium (3.437). In order to address the second objective of this study, the Spearman correlation test using SPSS was employed to analyse the data collected through the SATS 36 questionnaire. The analyses indicated a very weak correlation between attitude toward statistics and gender (r=.048;p=.672), major (r=.153;p=.174) and campus location (r=.074;p=.514) respectively, which were not statistically significant.

Abstract

The aim of the study was to determine the effectiveness of product development in the form of mathematical modules with a guided discovery approach in terms of motivation and learning achievement of UAD PGSD students. Guided discovery approach is a method that involves students in an optimum way to find formulas and theorems, while educators provide guidance to students who have difficulty. This type of research is a quasi-experimental study with pretest-posttest nonequivalent comparison-group design. The group used in this study consisted of two groups, namely the experimental group and the control group. Based on the calculation in the attachment, the value of t count is 5.37. The calculated t value obtained is greater than ttable = t0.05; 28 = 1.701 so Ho is rejected. Thus it can be concluded that at the 5% significance level, approach is the guided discovery effective in terms of student learning achievement. Based on the calculation in the attachment, the value of t count is -1.805. The calculated t value obtained is smaller than ttable = 1.701 so Ho is not rejected. Thus it can be concluded that at the 5% significance level, approach is the guided discovery not effective in terms of student learning motivation. It can be concluded that mathematics learning with a guided discovery approach is effective in terms of student learning achievement, but is not effective in terms of student learning motivation.
