Abstract

Mathematics lessons are one of the lessons that are considered difficult, so educators must be creative in choosing learning media to reduce the stereotype that mathematics lessons are difficult. One assessment medium that can be used to attract student interest is Wordwall. This research aims to determine the effectiveness and level of enthusiasm for Wordwall as an assessment medium in mathematics learning. The method used in this research is descriptive quantitative with a one-group pretest-posttest research design. The sample from this study uses a saturated sample, which means the entire population is included in the sample. The number of class V students at MI Soko, Pekalongan City is 36 students. Data collection was carried out by administering questionnaires and carrying out pretest-posttest related to mathematics questions. Then the data analysis technique uses the N-gain test, hypothesis testing, and Likert scale. The results of this research are: (1) Students feel enthusiastic about carrying out assessments using Wordwall with an enthusiasm percentage of 81.4% with effective information. (2) The use of Wordwall as a medium for assessing mathematics learning has proven to be effective with an N-gain value of 0.33, including the medium category and hypothesis testing with a large value. 0.000 < 0.05 which proves that there is a significant difference between before using Wordwall (pretest) and after using Wordwall (posttest). It is hoped that the research results will be able to provide information for educators regarding assessment media that are appropriate to developments in this century. The use of wordwalls has also been shown to be able to improve learning outcomes and student enthusiasm, especially in learning mathematics

Abstract

The objectives of this research are to determine the errors of mathematics education students in solving the PISA adaptation test. This research is an exploratory study with a qualitative approach that will produce descriptive data in the form of a description of the types and locations of student errors in solving PISA 2022. The subjects in this study were six students of the Program Studi Pendidikan Matematika Program Studi Diluar Kampus Utama (PSDKU) at Pattimura University in Maluku Barat Daya. They were in the second, fourth, and sixth semesters. Five students from each semester were asked to solve a question on the PISA adaptation test level 6, the highest level of the PISA test, as the method for selecting the subject. Six subjects were selected as research subjects out of the 15 who took the test. The conclusions in this study are that the ability of subjects to solve the PISA adaptation test is still very low. Only 3 out of 15 students can answer and provide the right solution for the test, and only 6 out of 15 students can figure out what to do to solve PISA adaptation test level 6. However, among the six students who gave their answers to this problem, there are some who have conceptual errors in the topic of SPLDV (System of Linear Equations with Two Variables). Besides conceptual errors, researchers also found that there is a subject who is incorrect in solving basic arithmetic operations involving parentheses

Abstract

This research aims to measure the level of mathematical literacy in the context of daily life among high school students, with a focus on differences between male and female students. The research method employed is quantitative with a survey approach. A total of 13 male students and 24 female students from various high schools participated as subjects. The instrument used was a Likert scale questionnaire consisting of 15 statements designed to measure students' perceptions and understanding of mathematical literacy in everyday life. Data analysis was conducted using the paired sample t-test to compare differences in responses between male and female students. The analysis results showed a paired sample t-test value of -0.368, with a significance value (sig) of 0.719. These findings indicate that there is no significant difference between the responses of male and female students regarding mathematical literacy in the context of daily life. Nevertheless, this research provides an important contribution to understanding students' perceptions of mathematical literacy and its implications in the educational context. Further research can delve into the factors influencing students' perceptions of mathematical literacy and broaden the sample scope to obtain a more holistic understanding of the phenomena under investigation.

Abstract

The low results of student geometry learning require a trial of the think-pair-share method as a replacement for conventional methods. This research aims to: (1) compare the level of effectiveness of applying the think-pair-share method with conventional learning in improving student geometry learning outcomes, and; (2) determine whether or not there is a significant effect from using the two methods. The method used is quasi-experimental with a nonequivalent pretest-posttest control group design involving an experimental group and a control group. Each group consisted of 23 class VII students selected non-randomly from the population. Data was taken using a geometry learning outcomes test instrument. Data were analyzed using the N-Gain Score test, the results of the calculations were converted into interpretation categories for N-Gain effectiveness to be concluded. Research findings: (1) the application of both methods was "ineffective", as shown by the calculation results of the average N-Gain score (%) for the experimental group of 38.112% and the control group of 30.636%, and; (2) based on the results of the hypothesis test, it was concluded that there was no significant influence from the application of the two methods on improving student geometry learning outcomes. The implication of this finding is that it is not recommended to apply the think-pair-share method if it is only focused on improving the geometry learning outcomes of class VII students, but it can still be applied for the purpose of developing students' collaboration skills
