Abstract

The difficulty of students in solving computational thinking (CT) problems related to the limit material of algebraic functions is that students do not understand the existing problems, difficulties regarding how the problem-solving pattern, difficulties when asked how to solve the problem, and difficulties when deciding and concluding from the problem. To overcome these difficulties, interactive multimedia is used, which is very important in modern education, it allows students to learn in a more interesting and interactive way, which can strengthen students' computational thinking skills. The purpose of this study was to determine the Exploration of Computational Thinking ability in the concept of Limit algebraic function with interactive multimedia and to determine the student's response to the use of interactive multimedia on the computational thinking ability of students in the material limit algebraic function in the department of tadris mathematics IAIN Lhokseumawe. The method used in this research is pre-experimental method, with the research design used is One Group Pretest-Posttest (Initial Test-Final Test on a single group. The research subjects were 1st semester students majoring in Tadris Metematics IAIN Lhokseumawe academic year 2023/2024. The research results obtained 1) From the calculation of the t test obtained the results of Tcount amounting to 2.583 and Ttable 1.684 (Ttest Ttable) or the probability value Sig 2 tailed α (0.000 0.05), then the hypothesis decision can be stated Ho rejected and Ha accepted. Thus, there is a significant difference in the exploration of computational thinking ability in the concept of limit function algebra with interactive multimedia. 2) the average percentage of very good categories obtained a value of 86%, good 13%, less 1%. The difference from the results of student responses with good to very good criteria is influenced by attitudes that show enthusiastic positive responses to interactive multimedia.

Abstract

Mathematics has always been a major part of school curricula in most countries. It provides a variety of useful tools that help students to solve problems that they encounter in everyday life. Mathematical tools are considered powerful, as long as one knows how to employ them across a range of suitable situations. However, selecting and using these tools appropriately appear to be challenging for many students. Because of this, word problems have been included in mathematics education to offer practice for students in applying mathematical skills effectively in various problem situations confronted in everyday circumstances. In addition, there is limited research about how learners in the foundation phase (Grades 1-3) solve addition and subtraction word problems. A relatively recent review of South African studies on mathematics education has revealed a paucity of research at the primary school level. This study therefore seeks to explore grade 2 learners’ experiences in solving addition and subtraction word problems. A qualitative research was conducted to describe grade 2 learners experience whilst solving addition and subtraction problems. Only 6 learners in grade 2 were selected to participate in this study. Learners demonstrated a strong preference for paper and pencil methods as well as the standard algorithm, when solving problems in word format. However, little evidence exists within the study that any of the learners conceptually understood the algorithm. The use of base 10 blocks to model the partial sums and partial differences algorithms would help most of the learners to develop a conceptual understanding of addition and subtraction of word problems in mathematics.

Abstract

The mathematical creative thinking skill is crucial in learning mathematics. However, the problem encountered in learning mathematics in class VII-B at SMP (Junior High School) Wahid Hasyim Malang was that the teacher did not involve students in exploring and providing opportunities to improve mathematical creative thinking skills. In overcoming this problem, the researcher applied the Jucama learning model assisted by tangram media on plane figure material. This research design was Classroom Action Research (CAR) which consisted of (1) Planning, (2) Implementation, (3) Observation, and (4) Reflection. The research subjects were 30 students in class VII-B SMP Wahid Hasyim. Data was collected through teacher and student activity observations, end-of-cycle test results, and questionnaires. This research was conducted in two cycles, with two meetings. The results indicated an increase in the percentage of observations of teacher and student activities, end-of-cycle test results, and questionnaire results. The results of observations of teacher activities in cycle I reached an average percentage of 75%, while in cycle II, it increased to 86.875%. The results of observing student activities in the first cycle reached a percentage of 73.125%, while in the second cycle, it increased to 85.75%. The end-of-cycle I test results showed that the completeness of student learning outcomes attained 63.33% with an average class score of 72. In comparison, the completeness of student learning outcomes in cycle II increased to 86.67%, with an average class score of 83.47. The results of the questionnaire in cycle I indicated that the percentage of success reached 46.67%, while in cycle II, the questionnaire results increased, with the percentage of success attaining 83.33%. Based on the results of data analysis, it can be implied that applying the JUCAMA learning model assisted by tangram media could improve the mathematical creative thinking skill of class VII-B students of SMP Wahid Hasyim Malang in the plane figure material.

Abstract

This study aims to determine students' higher order thinking skills (HOTS) and to analyze the difficulties experienced by students in solving HOTS questions at SMP Negeri 10 Lhokseumawe. The study used was descriptive qualitative research which was carried out by class VIII students of SMP Negeri 10 Lhokseumawe. The collection of data used is a test in the form of descriptions with material forms and algebraic operations and interviews. The data analysis technique used follows the Miles and Huberman model with data reduction, data presentation and drawing conclusions. The results showed that the students' high-level thinking skills were still in the low category. This can be seen from the success of each aspect of students' higher order thinking skills, namely the ability to analyze by 70.83%, the ability to evaluate by 12.50% and the ability to create or be creative by 33.33%. The results of the interviews found that students were not familiar with questions in the form of application of concepts or problem-solving, and there were still many students who did not have reinforcement of material concept abilities.

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the landscape of education around the world, including learning mathematics at the high school level. In response to the pandemic, many schools have adopted distance learning and integrated technology into the learning process. This study aims to analyze the perspectives of high school students in learning mathematics that is integrated with technology after the COVID-19 pandemic. In this context, we will explore students' understanding of the use of technology in learning mathematics, their attitudes towards the use of technology, and their views on the effectiveness of learning mathematics integrated with technology. The research method used in this study is a quantitative research method with the type of research used in this study is correlational. The results of this study are in line with the research objectives, namely to see whether there is an influence of students' perspectives on mathematics learning integrated with technology. The data shows that there is an influence between students' perspectives on learning mathematics that is integrated with technology.
