Abstract

This study aims to describe the statistical thinking process of high school students in solving mathematics problems. The method used was descriptive explorative with a qualitative approach, which was conducted at Maarif Lawang High School. The research subjects consisted of 24 students in class X MIPA who had taken statistics material. After being investigated, there were 3 out of 24 students who had solved the problem correctly. Based on the statistical thinking process, it can be grouped into two, namely the complete group and the incomplete group. One person in each group was taken as a group representative. Students completed the test with one data centralization problem. Written exams and in-depth interviews were the means of data collection. The data were next subjected to analysis using data reduction techniques, data display, and the drafting and verification of conclusions. Triangulation techniques were used to assess the veracity of the data. Based on the study's findings, Subject 1 accurately solved the problem and demonstrated proficiency in all four stages of the statistical thinking process: describing data presentation, organizing and reducing data, representing data, and analyzing and interpreting data. Although Subject 2 is capable of finding the proper solution, they are lacking in three key areas of statistical thinking: explaining the presentation of data, organizing and decreasing data, and expressing data.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze students' critical thinking skills through the Google Sites Problem Based Learning (PBL) model, both from the aspect of classical completeness and its superiority compared to conventional models, as well as the effect of learning motivation on critical thinking skills. Research also describes students' critical thinking skills based on the level of learning motivation. The method used is a mixture with sequential explanatory design, where the quantitative approach uses the post-test only control group design. The research population is all students of class VIII of SMP Negeri 26 Semarang, with samples of class VIII A as an experimental and VIII B group as a control group. Research instruments in the form of a test of mathematical critical thinking skills, learning motivation questionnaires, and interviews, with data analysis using IBM SPSS 22. The results show that the PBL model assisted by Google Sites reaches classical completeness and is more effective than conventional models. Learning motivation has an influence of 38.5% on critical thinking skills. Further analysis shows that students with high motivation meet all indicators of critical thinking abilities, students with motivation are superior to indicators of interpretation, analysis, and evaluation, while students with low motivation are only superior to indicators of interpretation and analysis. This finding confirms that the PBL model assisted by Google Sites is effective in improving the ability of students' mathematical critical thinking, with learning motivation as one of the main supporting factors.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the quality of SAVI learning model implementation with a board game on mathematical communication skills, analyze the effect of mathematical resilience on mathematical communication skills, and describe mathematical communication skills in terms of mathematical resilience. This study used a mixed method of sequential explanatory type. The population of this research was all seventh-grade students of SMPIT Nidaul Hikmah Salatiga. The results showed that the implementation of the SAVI learning model with a quality math board game improved mathematical communication skills. Students' mathematical resilience has a positive effect on their mathematical communication skills. Students with high mathematical resilience fulfill all indicators of mathematical communication. Medium resilience students met indicators 2 and 3, needed guidance for indicators 1 and 4, and had not yet met indicator 5. Low-resilience students are only able to achieve indicators 1 and 4 with guidance. A special case, a student with high resilience and a habitual background of studying for Olympiads, showed significant differences between verbal and written mathematical communication.

Abstract

Students’ level of learning and knowledge of mathematics has been a great concern in recent times in secondary school education. This study, therefore, investigated how the teachers’ teaching approaches correlate and contribute to junior secondary school students’ mathematics achievement in Lagos State, Nigeria. The study adopted a correlational research design. The study adopted a stratified sampling technique to select 30 junior secondary schools from the six existing educational districts, and a simple random technique was used to sample 900 students from the selected schools.  Data was collected using the Teacher Teaching Methods Questionnaire (r = 0.76) and the Mathematics Achievement Test (r = 0.71). Data analysis was done using multiple regression with a significance level of less than 0.05. Combining all teachers' teaching methods (demonstration, group discussion/cooperative learning, lecture, discovery, and project) resulted in a multiple correlation coefficient (R) of 0.237. The combination of independent variables explained the variance in the dependent variable, as indicated by the adjusted R2 of 0.051. Among the teaching methods considered, the group discussion/cooperative learning method (β = 0.219, t = 5.217) and the lecture method (β = 0.094, t = 2.082) both contributed positively and significantly to students' mathematics achievement. It is therefore important for mathematics teachers to identify and adopt the best methods to teach the subject.
