Abstract

This study aims to analyze the cognitivism theories of Jean Piaget and Lev Vygotsky and their implications for sequencing mathematics learning materials through a systematic literature review approach. Piaget’s theory emphasizes individual cognitive development through the stages of sensorimotor, preoperational, concrete operational, and formal operational, while Vygotsky’s theory highlights the role of social interaction, the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD), and scaffolding in the learning process. The findings indicate that effective mathematics learning requires the integration of both perspectives, in which learning materials must be aligned with students’ cognitive development and presented progressively from concrete experiences to visual representations and ultimately to abstract mathematical symbols. This process is strengthened through social interaction, discussion, and appropriate scaffolding. This study proposes a systematic sequence model for mathematics learning materials, namely: concrete experience ? visual representation (semi-concrete) ? abstract mathematical symbols ? conceptual generalization ? complex problem solving. This model has been shown to support the development of conceptual understanding, reasoning ability, and learner independence. The findings provide both theoretical and practical contributions for teachers and curriculum developers in designing mathematics instruction that is developmentally appropriate, interactive, and meaningful

Abstract

Numbered Heads Together (NHT) is a type of cooperative learning model that emphasizes group collaboration by assigning numbers to each member, who are then responsible for answering questions in turn. The low learning achievement of students at SMP Negeri 1 Muaro Jambi is attributed to the dominance of lecture-based teaching methods and the lack of active student engagement, which leads to weak understanding of algebraic concepts. The NHT learning model is proposed as a solution by fostering active, collaborative, and student-centered learning environments. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Numbered Heads Together (NHT) cooperative learning model in improving students’ learning outcomes in algebra. The research employed a quasi-experimental method with a pretest-posttest control group design. The population consisted of all seventh-grade students at SMP Negeri 1 Muaro Jambi, with samples selected purposively from two classes, namely VII D and VII E. The results indicate a significant difference between students taught using the NHT model and those taught using conventional methods, with a significance value of 0.019 < 0.05, indicating that  is accepted. Furthermore, the improvement in learning outcomes based on the N-Gain score in the experimental class was categorized as moderate (0.628), which is higher than that of the control class categorized as low (0.29). These findings demonstrate that the NHT cooperative learning model is effective in improving students’ learning outcomes in algebra.

Abstract

Achieving optimal learning outcomes in Numerical Methods courses among Informatics Engineering students remains hindered by various academic obstacles. This study aims to investigate the extent to which study patterns and levels of Self-Regulated Learning influence the academic achievement in Numerical Methods of Informatics Engineering students. Utilizing a quantitative correlational design, data were gathered from 50 participants serving as the research sample. The research instruments comprised Likert-scale questionnaires to measure study patterns and SRL, supplemented by documentation of students' academic records. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS software through Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression tests. The findings confirm that study patterns maintain a positive and significant correlation with learning outcomes (r = 0,351; p = 0,013). Similarly, Self-Regulated Learning demonstrates a positive and significant correlation with academic achievement (r = 0,598; p = 0,000). Simultaneously, both variables exert a significant impact, contributing 60.1% (coefficient of determination) to learning outcomes. Regression analysis reveals that Self-Regulated Learning possesses a more substantial influence (? = 0,708) compared to the study pattern variable (? = 0,505). This research highlights the critical importance of developing students' Self-Regulated Learning and study patterns to enhance academic performance, particularly within the context of Numerical Methods instruction.

Abstract

Understanding calculus concepts, especially derivatives, is very important for Mechanical Engineering students to apply mathematical principles in an engineering context. This study aims to analyze the types of errors made by students when solving derivative problems and the factors that influence these errors. The approach used is descriptive qualitative with 30 students of the Mechanical Engineering Study Program at Tegal Muhammadiyah University in the 2025/2026 academic year. Data were collected through written tests and interviews, then analyzed using triangulation to ensure validity. The results of the study show that there are three main categories of errors: conceptual, procedural, and technical. Conceptual errors occurred due to a weak understanding of derivative principles. Procedural errors arose when students understood the concept but made mistakes in symbolic manipulation, while technical errors stemmed from mechanical errors, such as copying questions or incorrect arithmetic calculations. Learning strategies that emphasize conceptual understanding and gradual practice can help reduce student errors.

Abstract

Implementasi Kurikulum Merdeka yang fokus pada penguatan literasi dan numerasi sering kali terhambat oleh fenomena berpikir semu, di mana siswa mampu mencapai jawaban benar tanpa pemahaman konsep yang mendasar. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk menganalisis bentuk pola berpikir semu tersebut dalam cakupan matematika kontekstual yang menjadi pilar utama pembelajaran masa kini. Berdasarkan studi literatur kualitatif, ditemukan bahwa tuntutan soal Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) mendorong siswa menggunakan "jalan pintas kognitif" yang rapuh. Masalah ini teridentifikasi secara luas pada materi pecahan, perbandingan, hingga aljabar yang seharusnya dikuasai melalui penalaran logistik. Sebagai solusi adaptif, strategi defragmentasi melalui scaffolding yang mengintegrasikan media visual dan pendekatan etnomatematika terbukti efektif dalam menata ulang struktur kognitif siswa. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa di era pendidikan yang mengutamakan kebermaknaan, intervensi pedagogis yang tepat sangat penting untuk mengubah pola berpikir mekanistik menjadi pemahaman matematis yang utuh dan kontekstual.

Abstract

Mathematics anxiety is one of the affective barriers that can reduce students’ learning motivation and academic achievement. This study aims to analyze the factors that influence the emergence of mathematics anxiety in students. The research method used was a literature study with content analysis techniques on fifteen relevant articles. The results showed that mathematics anxiety is influenced by internal factors, such as low self-confidence, as well as external factors, particularly rigid teaching methods used by teachers. In addition, family support and the social environment also affect students’ anxiety levels, although pressure from parenting styles and the abstract nature of mathematics material remain challenges. This study concludes that reducing mathematics anxiety requires strengthening students’ emotional regulation, implementing flexible teaching approaches, and providing continuous emotional support from families.

The rapid advancement of information and communication technology has fundamentally transformed educational practices, including mathematics instruction. This study aims to systematically examine the contribution of technology-based learning media to improving students’ mathematics learning outcomes across various educational levels in Indonesia. A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach was employed, with articles retrieved from the Google Scholar database using the Publish or Perish application. The search was restricted to publications from 2020 to 2025, and following the application of inclusion and exclusion criteria, 8 relevant articles were selected from an initial pool of 34. The findings consistently demonstrate that technology-based media positively and significantly enhances students’ mathematics learning outcomes. The media types identified include GeoGebra, animated video, interactive multimedia, e-learning platforms, and smartphone-based learning applications. Research activity was concentrated at the junior secondary level, particularly on geometry and algebra topics. A notable surge in publications occurred between 2020 and 2022, largely driven by the shift to distance learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. Beyond cognitive gains, technology-based media was found to improve student motivation, learning independence, and engagement. Most reviewed articles were indexed in SINTA 3 and SINTA 4, indicating substantial potential for elevating the quality and visibility of mathematics education research in Indonesia. This study concludes that the purposeful integration of technology-based media in mathematics learning, accompanied by improvements in teachers’ digital competency and equitable access to technological infrastructure, is essential for sustainable educational progress
