Abstract

This research was a descriptive qualitative research. This research aims to analyze students’ error in solving mathematical communication problem on circle topic. Population in this research was all students studying in the 9th grade of SMP Negeri 3 Lembang Bandung Jawa Barat. The sample was 39 students (22 female and 17 male) that was chosen by purposive sampling technique. Data was collected from students through essay test. The data was analyzed with descriptive way. The results of this research indicate that percentage of error in using circle area formula was 5.1%, error in linking concept is 25.6%, and error in understanding the meaning of the problem was 17.9%. Students’ error in solving mathematical communication problem was caused by many factors, such as students were not used to solve mathematical communication problem, less accuracy, and less conceptual understanding of mathematics. Based on the result, the researcher suggest to: 1) increase students’ understanding of formula rather than memorize it, 2) increase students’ understanding of problem, and 3) give students more exercise related non-routine problem.

Abstract

Innovative and creative learning can be done through simple demonstrations to strengthen the understanding of chemical concepts. One simple demonstration is Elepanth's Toothpaste experiment which can train students to apply knowledge in investigating and explaining the effect of temperature, pH, enzyme concentration, substrate concentration on reaction rate with catalyst. The purpose of writing is to provide a reference in teaching chemistry with fun methods. The Elepanth's toothpaste experiment undergoes a hydrogen decomposition reaction into water and oxygen gas by yeast or potassium iodide which is the source of the catalase enzyme. Yeast or potassium iodide acts as a catalyst by decreasing the activation energy, so the reaction is easy to occur. Foam is formed by the reaction between oxygen and detergent in water, which increases in number as the concentration and strength of the catalyst increases. Implementation of elephant's toothpaste experiment in school can be done with problem-based learning model, where students are taught to further improve concept understanding with problem solving. The existence of chemistry learning with elephant's toothpaste experiments is expected to improve understanding of chemical concepts and create enjoyable learning.

Abstract

The curriculum 2013is developed with the refinement of teacher centered learning into student centered learning.The learning design in thecurriculum 2013 is emphasized on the application of science process skills. Based on premilinary study in junior high school, the science process skills of the students is weak. Therefore, teacher must practice science process skills to students with suitable learning model. One of learning model that suitable to practice science process skills is guided discovery model. The purposes of this research is to describe the effectiveness science learning materials based guided discovery model to improve science process skills. The effectiveness of learning materials is reviewed from science process skills of the students and student response. The development research method using 4D model. The process of developing science learning material starts from defining step, the process of designing the learning material developed based on information obtained from the step of early analysis, learners, materials, tasks that support then done the design step or design, then the last step is the development step. Based on the result of the research, it is found that science process skills of the students are improved and the students gived a positive response after learning with the learning material based guided discovery model. It is conclude that, science learning materials based guided discovery model is effective to improve science process skills.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of Problem Based Learning model on student problem solving abilities in learning mathematics class X in SMA Bait Al-Quran. The study was conducted in the odd semester of the academic year 2017/2018. The type of research used is true experimental design with experimental design used in the form of random, pre-test, post-test design. The sample of this study was class X of Palestine as experimental class and class X of Yemen as control class. The learning process in the experimental class gets treatment with the PBL model and in the control class is taught by conventional learning model. Data collection using essay-type essay test technique is five questions to measure student problem solving abilities. Based on hypothesis test by using t-test at significant level (α) = 0,05. Based on the analysis of t-test the final test data is obtained value of Sig. (2-tailed) of 0.00 < 0.05 then according to the basis of decision-making in the T-Test can be concluded H0 rejected and Ha accepted. Thus the hypothesis proposed in this study proved, that there is a significant influence PBL model on the ability problem-solving mathematics students class X SMA Bait Al-Quran Kayuagung.

Abstract

Local potency-based learning provides knowledge, skills, understanding of the state of the environment and the needs of local communities in accordance with the values or rules that apply to learners. This study was a introduction study on the used of local potency-based teaching materials by SMK N 1 Legonkulon Fisheries adjacent to damaged mangrove forests. The method used in this research was descriptive-qualitative method. Preliminary data regarding the importance of application of teaching materials were explored through interview instruments for teachers and students. The subjects were 2 teachers and 15 students from SMK N 1 Legonkulon. The results showed that 100% of students did not study the mangrove ecosystem in learning and did not know about the relation of mangrove existence to the fish population. Teachers claimed only teach the ecosystem in general and did not convey the subject matter about the mangrove ecosystem due to not having the teaching materials associated with the mangrove ecosystem. Based on preliminary study it was deemed necessary to apply local potential-based teaching materials so that students better understand and care about the environment, and better understand the concept of ecosystems to gain useful learning.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the ability of mathematical analogies and communication ability of students in remote areas through a scientific approach. The research method is quantitative with pretest and posttest design in the experimental class. The subjects were 117 students consisting of 29 students of class VII, as many as 43 students of class VIII, and as many as 45 students of class IX. The results showed that through the scientific approach, the mathematical analogy ability of grade VII students increased with the low category, while class VIII and IX increased by medium category. Mathematical communication ability of grade VII and VIII students increased with the high category, and class IX increased with the medium category. Students are actively involved in observing problems, asking questions, trying strategies, solving problems, and concluding concepts. Students are good at getting involved to help less-clever students. Students in remote schools have the potential to develop analogy and mathematical communication skills.

Abstract

This research aims to develop ethnoscience-based thematic teaching materials to improve students' scientific literacy. The procedure was divided into two phases; developmental phase and experimental phase. This developmental research used Four-D Model. However, within this research, the process of development would not involve disseminated as the last step. The teaching materials which were developed consist of a lesson plan, student handbook, student worksheet, achievement test and scientific literacy test. The experimental phase used one group pretest-posttest design. Results show that the validity of teaching materials which were developed was very good and revealed the enhancement of students activities with a positive response to the teaching-learning process. Furthermore, the learning materials increase the students' scientific literacy level.
