Abstract

A common problem in mathematics learning is teachers' delays in providing feedback to students, thus slowing down the process of conceptual understanding. The Fast Feedback method allows teachers to respond quickly to students' answers during learning activities. This study aims to improve students' mathematical problem-solving skills through the Fast Feedback method with an answer grouping model. This study used a Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach implemented in three cycles with the stages of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. The subjects were 42 students of SMP Harmoni School Terpadu Teluk Bintuni Regency, studying the Pythagoras Theorem. Data was collected through task cards, observation sheets, and documentation. The results showed an increase in students' problem-solving skills in each cycle. The number of students answering correctly increased from 31 students in cycle I to 38 students in cycle II, and 39 students in cycle III. Thus, the application of the Fast Feedback method with an answer grouping model has been proven to improve students' mathematical problem-solving skills. The Fast Feedback method using the answer grouping model is expected to be used in in-depth mathematics learning and have an impact on efforts to improve student learning outcomes

Abstract

This study aims to develop local wisdom-based video doratoon learning media for understanding the concept of fractions of grade IV students and determine the validity, practicality, and effectiveness of the learning media developed. The type of method used in this research is development (Research and Development) using the 4D development procedure model which consists of 4 stages namely Define (definition), Design (plaħning). Development (development), Dissemination (dissemination). This research uses instruments, namely validation sheets in the form of questionnaires or questionnaires given to validators of material experts, media experts, teacher responses, student responses, and tests of understanding of local wisdom-based fraction concepts given to students. The subjects in this study were media expert validators, material experts, teachers, and grade IV students totaling 20 people. Based on the trials conducted, the results of the validity of the learning media development were 97.22% with very valid criteria, and the validity of the learning material was 95% with very valid criteria. The results of the practicality level were 83% student response, and 92% teacher response with very practical criteria. For the level of effectiveness obtained by 89% very effective criteria, and on the n gain score of 74% with high criteria. So it can be concluded that the doratoon video learning media based on local wisdom for understanding the concept of fractions of fourth grade students.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the teaching and learning process of linear functions through the implementation of the Snowball Throwing learning model. A qualitative approach was employed, with data collected via observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation of the learning activities. The findings reveal that the Snowball Throwing model’s syntax—including the delivery of material, group formation, group leader explanations, question writing and throwing, as well as group discussion and evaluation—creates an active and collaborative learning environment. This process encourages students to develop key indicators of mathematical conceptual understanding: the ability to restate the concept of linear functions in their own words, classify objects according to the concept’s characteristics, and provide accurate examples and non-examples. Moreover, students demonstrate the ability to represent the concept in various mathematical forms, such as graphs and algebraic expressions, and apply the concept effectively in solving contextual problems. The interactive question-and-answer sessions and group discussions prove effective in strengthening conceptual understanding and clarifying misconceptions. This study recommends the use of the Snowball Throwing model as a participatory teaching strategy to enhance student engagement and improve the quality of mathematical conceptual understanding, particularly in the topic of linear functions.

Abstract

Mathematics is often perceived as an abstract science detached from daily life, whereas in reality, it grows and develops within the culture of society. The ethnomathematics approach seeks to reveal how mathematical concept, especially geometry, manifest within cultural practices and architectural works. This study aims to explore the application of geometric concepts in the architecture of Saint Joseph Catholic Church Jember as an integration of mathematics, culture, and spirituality. The research employed a qualitative approach with an ethnographic case study design through participatory observation, interviews, and visual documentation. The result show that various elements of the church building, such as the bell tower, triangular roof, arched windows, pillars, stained glass, and floor mosaics, contain geometric concepts such as plane figures, solid figures, symmetry, similarity, and geometric transformations including reflection, rotation, and translation. Each architectural element demonstrates not only mathematical order but also symbolic meanings such as balance, perfection, and eternity that reflect Catholic faith values. The findings affirm that ethnomathematics serves as a bridge between science, art, and cultural values, making mathematics learning more contextual, meaningful, and grounded in real life.

Abstract

This study investigates how a diverse set of traditional Malang foods—including Mendol Tempe, Bakwan Malang, Tempe Chips, Cwie Mie, Rawon, Bakso Bakar, Putri Salju cookies, and Orem-Orem—can function as culturally grounded contexts for developing students’ mathematical reasoning and model-construction competencies. Each food item reveals distinct mathematical structures: density and texture patterns in Mendol Tempe, irregular yet classifiable shapes in Bakwan Malang, fractal-like crisp patterns in Tempe Chips, proportional seasoning in Cwie Mie, time-based flavor development in Rawon, rotational symmetry in Bakso Bakar, geometric uniformity in Putri Salju, and combinatorial layering in Orem-Orem. Drawing on a philosophical perspective that positions mathematics as an interpretive lens for understanding real-world phenomena, students transition from sensory observation to formal modeling, constructing representations such as ratio models, time–intensity functions, geometric similarity models, rotational interval equations, and combinatorial structures. Findings indicate that embedding mathematical tasks in local culinary culture enhances conceptual understanding, promotes creative model construction, and strengthens culturally responsive pedagogical practices. This approach highlights the natural emergence of mathematical ideas from daily life experiences, making learning more meaningful, engaging, and contextually relevant.
