Abstract

This research aims to describe differentiated instruction through project-based learning on students' collaborative skills in solid geometry.  This study is a case study type of research. Data collection techniques were carried out by observing and interviewing 32 students. The result of this research is that differentiated instruction begins with an assessment of student readiness and an assessment of student interest. The learning process continues with implementing three essential aspects of differentiated instruction: content, process, and product differentiation. Process differentiation begins with the implementation of project-based learning steps. In this case, differentiated teaching and project-based learning complement each other. The results of the collaborative skills show that the students in the forming category performed optimally. Pupils learn in groups voluntarily; pupils do not leave their groups, and they exchange ideas when completing their projects. However, in the other categories, i.e., students' functioning, formulating, and fermenting, they do not show maximum results.

Abstract

This study explores the philosophical aspects of traditional architecture and ethnomathematics geometry in the Istana Dalam Loka traditional house, located in West Nusa Tenggara. Employing a qualitative approach with an ethnographic design, data were gathered through observations and interviews with key, primary, and additional informants. Findings indicate that mathematical concepts are reflected in every architectural element, such as rectangles in doors, terraces, stairs, shields (kantar), kandaga, the sultan's palanquin (tandu), pineapple decoration, and frames. The study also identifies square concepts in the sultan's child's palanquin, glass boxes, and windows. Circular concepts are found in badong, and the concept of an isosceles triangle is present in the roof, offering potential for creative geometry learning. This research has implications in enriching students' mathematical education by utilising geometric examples from local culture. Integrating ethnomathematics into elementary school curricula can broaden students' cultural perspectives, increase student engagement in learning, and enrich students' understanding of mathematics.

Abstract

This study aims to produce an empirical didactic design designed to overcome didactic barriers experienced by students on beam volume material. Didactical design research is a design in this study that contains three stages of analysis, namely prospective analysis, metapedadidactic analysis, and retrospective analysis. 25 9th-grade junior high school students and one mathematics teacher were selected using purposive sampling techniques to become subjects. Observation, tests using diagnostic tests, and interviews are techniques in data collection. The collected data is analysed and interpreted qualitatively using interpretive and critical paradigms. The results of this study show that through three stages of analysis, an empirical didactic design was obtained that contains four didactic situations: action situations, formulation situations, validation situations, and institutionalisation situations. However, the limitations of presenting problems in institutionalisation situations have an impact on the occurrence of other learning barriers, namely epistemological concepts. Thus, this limitation becomes an improvement material in empirical didactic design.

Abstract

Graphs are essential representations in mathematics, but many students only focus on procedural rules when sketching graphs of equations. This study aims to describe the errors and obstacles experienced by students in drawing graphics of equations. The research method uses a qualitative approach by collecting data through tests and interviews. The research results show that students' mistakes in drawing graphs can be caused by dependence on procedural knowledge in plotting points without conceptual understanding. Students who make mistakes do not understand points as multiplicative objects, lack covariational reasoning, need help understanding the concept of complex numbers, and show reflective thinking in completing assignments. This research implies that teachers must consider the students' difficulties and mistakes to avoid becoming didactic learning obstacles. In studying plotting point procedures, students' knowledge must include understanding concepts related to graphs, such as the meaning of points and graph concavity, graph shifts, and the relationship between the discriminant of a quadratic equation and its graph.

Abstract

One of the causes of low proficiency among high school students in mathematical critical thinking is their lack of willingness to learn independently. This study investigated the mathematical critical thinking skills and self-regulated learning of high school students through the Flipped Classroom STEM approach. The research employed a sequential explanatory design, beginning with quasi-experimental pre-tests and post-tests for quantitative assessment of the learning process, followed by qualitative methods such as questionnaires, interviews, and observations for deeper analysis. Data analysis utilized quantitative techniques, including normality and homogeneity tests and hypothesis testing in SPSS, alongside qualitative methods for data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion. The findings revealed that flipped classroom learning significantly improved students' abilities in critical mathematical thinking, particularly highlighting the importance of self-regulated learning. There was a notable difference in post-test scores compared to those from traditional learning methods. Moreover, the study found that students with higher self-regulated learning skills were more effective in critical thinking, underscoring the effectiveness of the flipped classroom approach in fostering independent learning and enhancing essential thinking abilities in mathematics education.

Abstract

Mathematical literacy ability is one of the indispensable abilities in the development of mathematics education today. Currently, the mathematical literacy ability of students in Indonesia is still low. In the field of education, the era of society 5.0 has a great impact, so education must be able to produce human resources who have good mathematical literacy and are able to apply technology well with their literacy abilities. This study aims to determine how the quality of a project-based learning model with math trails assisted by augmented reality in the context of Blenduk Church is able to promote students' mathematical literacy. The research method used is design research. The data were analysed using qualitative and quantitative data analysis techniques. Qualitative data analysis techniques were used to analyse the results of student response questionnaires after conducting project-based learning with augmented reality-assisted math trails at Blenduk Church. Meanwhile, quantitative analysis techniques are used to analyse students' mathematical literacy skills obtained from student test results before and after conducting project-based learning with augmented reality-assisted math trails at Blenduk Church. However, further research is needed on the development of augmented reality-assisted learning instruments and media in other contexts to promote students' literacy skills.

Abstract

Traditional game (TG) Galah Asin has been played for generations—a game cultivated from generation to generation for Timor Tengah Selatan residents, Indonesia-Timor Leste Border Area. People must be aware that Galah Asin's TG and activities contain mathematics concepts that can be employed in math study. This study examines ethnomathematics in Galah Asin, a conventional game in Mnelalete Village, West Amanuban District, South Central Timor Regency, NTT Province, Indonesia. An ethnographic approach was used to investigate the data. Ethnomathematics emphasizes understanding a culture's concepts, methods, and practices from its members' perspectives. The study collects data through observation, interviews, and documentation. This study analyzed data using taxonomy, domain, componential, and cultural theme analysis. The study results found flat, translational, reflecting, line, angel, and congruence geometry ideas in the game arena, body movement, and player position of Galah Asin. Galah Asin also has addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in gameplay. The implication of exploring ethnomathematics study is that understanding cultural activities can be integrated into school mathematics instruction. In addition, the ethnomathematics exploration of TG impacts the preservation of local culture.

Abstract

This research was motivated by students' difficulties understanding the basic concepts of abstract flat-side spatial shapes. So, learning media is needed to help students understand the material that is made interesting by utilising technology in the form of virtual reality. The research aims to determine the development of virtual reality media towards students' conceptual understanding, which has been tested validly and practically, so that it can be used as an active and exciting learning media. The method used in this research is a qualitative approach using the Research and Development method and the ADDIE model using the Millealab application. Participants were eighth-grade students at junior high schools. The outcomes of the research show that virtual reality is an innovative learning media that utilises technological developments in learning media and provides a quick, engaging, and fun understanding so that students can more easily understand mathematical concepts in flat-sided material. Virtual reality learning media has been extensively tested to be valid, practical, and suitable for use in learning. Suggestions for this research can provide an innovative development of virtual learning media, which still has many shortcomings, so that it is much better and produces like learning.
