Abstract

Purpose-This research aims to analyze the role of the I-CON model in constructing mathematical proofs.Methodology-The research used is qualitative with a grounded theory approach. Respondents were selected using a theoretical sampling approach, based explicitly on concepts that have been shown to relate to the theory being developed. Analysis data is obtained based on student test results, which are given to respondents, compiled into a new concept or theme, and then the desired subcategory.Findings- The theory derived from this research is that, through the I-CON model, students can construct robust, precise, and valid mathematical proofs. The implementation of the I-CON model in the ability to construct mathematical proofs is (1) students can link facts with properties to interpret existing problems, (2) students can sequence valid proof steps, (3) students can use premises, definitions, and theorems related to statements to build a proof, (4) students can use appropriate arguments in the proof process, (5) Students have a systematic flow of thinking so that the proof steps are consistent, and (6) Students can interpret symbols mathematical and use precise mathematical communication language, which is obtained through learning the ICON model. Through learning the I-CON model, students can have the ability to understand various concepts, theorems, and definitions. They can make conjectures from statements given by interpreting them in detail. Implementing the Interpretation-Construction Design (I-CON) model in constructing mathematical proof produces six categories: Initial steps of proof, Flow of Proof, Related concepts, Arguments, Interpretation, and Language of Proof.Significance-The results emphasize the importance of students constructing interpretations of real-world problem situations, discussion activities in building interpretations, reflecting, analyzing, and concluding interpretations that students construct as the primary focus of learning activities

Abstract

Purpose – Mastering critical thinking and problem-solving skills is the primary demand in 21st-century education. However, the evaluation results at SMPN 2 Rangkasbitung showed that students still experienced difficulties in these aspects, which were exacerbated by using conventional learning models. For this reason, this study aims to examine the effectiveness of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model integrated with the PhET virtual laboratory and the role of self-efficacy in improving students' problem-solving skills on energy material.Methodology – This study used mixed methods with an explanatory sequential design. In the first stage, a quantitative approach was used to analyze the effect of PBL-PhET and self-efficacy on problem-solving ability, followed by a qualitative approach to explore the quantitative findings further. The sample consisted of 61 randomly selected grade VIII students. Data were collected through problem-solving tests, self-efficacy questionnaires, and lesson observations and analyzed using inferential statistical tests.Findings – The results showed that applying PBL integrated with PhET significantly improved students' problem-solving ability (r = 0.044). Self-efficacy also significantly influences students' problem-solving success (r < 0.001). However, the interaction between the learning model and self-efficacy did not show a significant effect (r = 0.159). The qualitative findings supported the quantitative results by showing that students with high self-efficacy were more active and confident and demonstrated more effective problem-solving strategies during problem-based learning.Significance—This research confirms the importance of integrating innovative approaches and psychological factors in science learning. Teachers and curriculum developers need to consider implementing PBL-PhET and strengthening self-efficacy as effective learning strategies relevant to the demands of the times.

Abstract

Purpose – The limited use of learning media by teachers, which leads to a primarily one-way learning process, is the main reason for this study. Student learning outcomes are adversely affected by this lack of interaction in the classroom, particularly in Arabic language studies. The study intends to (1) figure out whether students who are taught using the sound book 'أول كتاب and those who do not have a notable difference in their mastery of Arabic vocabulary and (2) assess how well the sound book 'أول كتاب enhance students' Arabic vocabulary mastery.Methodology – This study employs a quantitative approach with an experimental research design, specifically a pretest-posttest control group design. The population consists of three classes, comprising a total of 105 students. The sample, selected using a simple random sampling technique, consists of two classes: Class I-A, the experimental group, and Class I-B, the control group. Data collection methods include tests, interviews, and documentation. For data analysis, a t-test was used to examine differences in students' mastery of Arabic vocabulary, while the N-gain test was applied to determine the level of effectiveness.Findings – The results of the t-test on the post-test scores for the experimental and control classes indicate a Sig. (2-tailed) value of 0.001, demonstrating a significant difference in Arabic vocabulary mastery between students in the experimental class, who were taught using the sound book 'أول كتاب, and those in the control class, who were taught without it. Furthermore, the N-gain test for the experimental class yielded a percentage of 75%, indicating an effective enough level. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that the use of the sound book 'أول كتاب is effective enough in enhancing students' mastery of Arabic vocabulary.Contribution – These findings have implications for the use of sound books as a valuable resource for teachers in selecting appropriate learning media to create a more effective and interactive learning experience. This demonstrates the potential of sound books to enhance students' engagement and understanding through their interactive and multi-sensory features
