Abstract

The low level of Indonesian students' mathematical literacy remains a major challenge in education, as reflected in various national and international assessment results such as PISA. One effort that can be made to improve students' mathematical literacy is through the implementation of appropriate learning models. This study aims to analyze learning models that have been proven effective in improving students' mathematical literacy skills. The method used is Systematic Literature Review with six stages: formulating research questions, establishing selection criteria, developing a search strategy, study selection, quality assessment, and synthesis of results. Literature search was conducted using the Publish or Perish application based on Google Scholar with a range of years 2016–2026. From the initial 200 articles, 17 articles met the inclusion criteria and passed the Quality Assessment stage. The results show that the most widely used learning models that are proven effective in improving students' mathematical literacy include: Problem Based Learning, Project Based Learning, Discovery Learning, Realistic Mathematics Education, Learning Cycle 7E, inquiry model with scaffolding, Group Investigation, Collaborative Learning, and Accelerated Learning Cycle. These models are effective because they encourage active student involvement, contextualization of real problems, and development of critical thinking skills.

Abstract

This study aims to validate the effect of EPBL in reducing students' cognitive load in solving complex mathematical problems. It also examines the impact of EPBL implementation on students learning process. This study uses a mixed-method approach with a concurrent  triangulation design. The subjects of this study were one 8th-grade class at SMP Negeri 14 Kota Serang, consisting of  36 students. Quantitative data were analyzed using paired t-test statistics, while qualitative data obtained through semi-structured interviews were analyzed using thematic analysis. The results showed that the implementation of EPBL significantly improved students' mathematical problem-solving abilities. The average score increased from 47.50 in the pretest to 76.39 in the posttest, with an effect size of 1.011, which is considered large. The results also showed a significant decrease in students' cognitive load, with the average score decreasing from 50.25 to 17.00 and an effect size of 2.269, which is considered very large. Qualitative findings support these results through two main themes: ease of understanding the material and learning comfort. Students stated that the use of worked examples helped them understand concepts and problem-solving procedures more effectively, while the structured learning process created a more comfortable learning atmosphere. The findings of this study indicate that EPBL contributes to improving mathematical problem-solving skills while helping reduce students' cognitive load in solving complex mathematical problems. This study provides empirical evidence regarding the effectiveness of integrating worked examples and problem-solving activities as a mathematics learning strategy that supports students' cognitive load management.
