Abstract

Learning trajectory of set is a learning path to get concept of set. However, several teachers did not combine methods, approaches, and ideas in their practical deliveries. This situation becomes a concern for teachers to handle since it will affect the rule without reason so that the accepted concept will not last long in students’ memory. This study aim to describe the learning trajectory using RME models to construct the concept of set. Hypothetical learning trajectory (HLT) was designed using a qualitative method with the realistic mathematics education (RME) of Gravemeijer model as the activity stage begin from preparing for the experiment, pilot experiment, teaching experiment and retrospective analysis. The designed HLT consisted of an objective, activity, and conjecture. This study achieved an understanding of the set concept with applying RME design. By providing examples of contextual mathematics that take place in the learning environment, these outcomes were achieved. Then using media like set cards to model mathematics so that students can advance their own knowledge to the level of formal mathematics. Therefore, the RME-based HLT design can be a solution to obtain the concept of set, primarily in domain definition and set notation to produce a learning trajectory.

Abstract

At the end of the sixties of last century, the development of Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) started in the Netherlands. At the beginning of this century, the Indonesian adaptation of RME, Pendidikan Matematika Realistik Indonesia (PMRI), started. The implementation of RME / PMRI has proven to be challenging. In this research, a qualitative case study was used to investigate teachers’ perceptions and experiences in implementing RME/PMRI in their classes. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with several Dutch and Indonesian teachers who have joined the RME/PMRI training. We found similarities and differences between the two groups of teachers. Both groups of teachers understand the use of context as a starting point for students to construct mathematical understanding. The Dutch teachers considered the construction of interesting mathematical problems and the use of the guided-reinvention principle as the difficulties but motivated them to do more practice. Indonesian teachers mentioned that for them, the integration of mathematics with other subject areas for integrated thematic learning in the 2013 curriculum was their constraint but it was also a challenge for them to be more creative. These perspectives can become a reference for the development of a localized implementation of learning trajectory in classroom practices.

Abstract

Mathematical literacy helps an individual recognize the role or use of mathematics in everyday life. One of the factors supporting mathematical literacy is the learning style of the student. This study aimed to describe the mathematical literacy of students in the context of SMP Negeri 1 Palopo based on their answers to PISA test questions by observing their learning styles. The subjects in this study were three eighth graders each representing visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles. The data instruments used were a learning style questionnaire, a mathematical literacy test based on the 2012 PISA test draft, and an interview guide. The results of the learning style questionnaire were analyzed by referring to the indicators of the three learning styles under study, while the results of the PISA test were analyzed by referring to the indicators for each PISA level. The results of this study indicated that the visual student and the auditory student had mathematical literacy at level 3 as shown by their ability to connect and reflect things involved in interpretation and basic reasoning, while the kinesthetic student had mathematical literacy at level 4 as shown by their ability to build and communicate explanations and argumentation based on interpretations, arguments, and actions. Based on the research results, it is suggested that students be accustomed to working on PISA-like problems to improve their mathematical literacy.

Abstract

Rotation is an essential part of geometric transformations. This research aims to produce a learning trajectory of rotation material and determine the role of activities in learning the rotation which is expected to be able to support students understanding the concept of rotation learning in grade IX. The approach used is Pendidikan Matematika Realistik Indonesia (PMRI) with Lesson Study for Learning Community (LSLC) as learning system. The method used in this research is a design research type validation study. This research was conducted in limited face-to-fece meetings at secondary school number 1 Palembang during the pandemic and involved 13 students of class IX. The data were collected using video recordings and photos taken during the learning process, student interviews, student work, discussion results, and field notes at each meeting. The results of this study indicate that the learning trajectory can support the informal to formal concept of rotation, including the activity of recording the starting point and endpoint, analyzing and interpreting changes of starting and endpoints using one’s language, and writing the rotation formula. Therefore, it can be concluded that a series of activities by exploring the Palembang songket fabric motif plays a role in helping students understand the concept of rotation easily and allows them to produce rational imaginations and fun learning.

Abstract

Islamic contexts help stimulate students' mathematical abilities and develop their religious thinking. Therefore, this research aims to describe students' thinking process in solving mathematical literacy problems adapted from PISA questions using Islamic contexts. This research is qualitative-descriptive in nature with the purposive sampling technique used to select the three best teams competing on the National Mathematics Olympiad organized by the Mathematics Education Study Program of UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta in 2018. Each school level (Islamic elementary school (MI), Islamic junior high school (MTs), and Islamic senior high school (MA)) was represented by a team of 3 students. Data were collected through tests of mathematical literacy in Islamic contexts that matched PISA contexts and through interviews. Then, the data collected were analysed using triangulation techniques. The results showed that the students' thinking process in solving mathematical literacy problems in Islamic contexts was in accordance with Bayer’s thinking process theory. In general, the students already engaged in a thought process starting from information processing to decision-making. In fact, some MTs students had reached the thinking level of analysing relationships, synthesising problems or arguments, and conducting evaluations using several criteria suitable for the MA level. So it can be concluded that he Islamic contexts used in mathematical literacy questions tend to draw students' attention to the problems and help them solve those problems.

Abstract

The aim of this research was to determine the spatial reasoning constructs employed by pre-service elementary school teachers when solving geometry problems. A total of 36 participants were invited to complete an online test, after which two selected individuals were engaged in solving the problems. Interviews were then conducted to accurately describe the process of solving geometric problems. The results showed the existence of two types of spatial reasoning constructions, namely series and parallel. Both construction types revealed the interrelationship between spatial reasoning and the problem-solving process. This research highlighted the significance of spatial reasoning as an integral component in solving geometric problems, emphasizing the need for further investigation into its distinctiveness. This could be achieved by incorporating advanced geometric concepts and materials into future research.
