Abstract

The aim of this research is to describe profile of problem solving ability of secondary students with high mathematical ability in learning based on realistic mathematics supported by ethnomathematics. This study is descriptive qualitative reasearch. The method of data collection used in this study are written test and interview. Subject of this study is secondary students on class VIIIA SMPN 37 Semarang. The data analysed in this study is problem solving ability which is suitable to problem solving ability of Polya and result of an interview to research subject. The result of this study is profile of problem solving ability of the high mathematical ability student is very good. The student problem solving ability starting from understanding the problem completely and make good planning to solve the problem, then he can do the correct process and produce the right answer. In addition, he could look back the process but still uncomplete yet. Furthermore, hopefully this result will help the teacher in choosing the appropriate strategy or instructional approach in order to improve the students problem solving ability.

Abstract

This research was carried out by the fact that many students are not interested in mathematics, and their calculation skill is still under expectation. Less of student engagement and too much teacher intervention are still dominating along mathematics learning process. This study aimed to improve 2nd grade students’ calculation skill through Pathilan traditional game in MI Muhammadiyah Bekangan. This research subject were 29 2nd graders of MI Muhammadiyah Bekangan period 2015/2016. This research combines classroom action research which refers to Stephen Kemmis and Robin Mc Taggart. This research was conducted in two cycles and each cycle was done in two meetings. Every cycle consisted of 4 steps i.e. preparation, action, observation, evaluation, analysis and reflection. The technique of collecting data was done by assessing test result and observation, test instrument, observation sheet, and field notes. The data was analyzed by using quantitative-descriptive approach. The study showed that students’ learning results were bellow minimum limit of 50% completeness before the implementation Pathilan traditional game during learning process. After the implementation of Pathilan traditional game, the percentage of students’ learning results that passed minimum limit (KKM) of 50% completeness was improving, from 75,86% in the first cycle to 86,21% in the second cylce. The average of students’ learning result was also improving from 67,83  becomed 75,79 in the last cycle. In the end, learning with Pathilan traditional game could motivate students to study calculation continuously

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apakah terdapat peningkatan hasil belajar matematika siswa melalui pembelajaran berbasis penilaian. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode pre-eksperimental dengan desain pre-test dan post-test dalam satu kelompok. Partisipan dalam penelitian ini adalah 40 siswa kelas 5 di salah satu Sekolah Dasar di Kota Depok tahun ajaran 2014/2015. Pengumpulan data dilakukan menggunakan pre-test dan post-test. Kedua instrumen tersebut diujicoba terlebih dahulu sebelum diberikan pada partisipan. Analisis data dilakukan dengan menggunakan uji t dengan taraf signifikansi 5%. Temuan yang diperoleh dalam penelitian ini adalah terdapat peningkatan hasil belajar matematika siswa yang ditunjukkan dengan nilai t-hitung= 15,73 > 1,684 = t-kritis Penelitian ini mengisyaratkan bahwa penilaian dalam proses pembelajaran matematika tidak hanya digunakan sebagai bentuk pertanggungjawaban dalam proses belajar-mengajar, namun juga dapat dijadikan sarana untuk mendukung belajar-mengajar. Penelitian selanjutnya dapat mengeksplorasi lebih jauh beberapa strategi lain dalam ABL sehingga semakin memperkaya metode (dan alternatif) untuk diterapkan di kelas.

Abstract

Despite its importance, there are still many problems encountered in the learning of the topic of reflection in school. One of the solutions for these problems is the implementation of learning approaches that fit the modern curricula and the development of good quality instructional materials. Therefore, the aim of this study was to describe the quality of investigative instructional material with computer assisted instruction for the topic of reflection in Grade VII. The result of the analysis suggested that the investigative instructional material for the topic of reflection in Grade 7 is of good quality because it fulfills the following criteria: (1) the teacher was capable to manage the lesson well, (2) the students were actively involved during the lesson, (3) the students gave positive response to the instructional material, (4) the achievement test is valid, reliable, and sensitive; and (5) the validator claimed that the developed instructional material is valid.

Abstract

This experimental research was aimed to reveal the effect of cooperative learning models viewed from the level of learning motivation on students’ learning achievement on mathematics. The data were analyzed using the Two-Way ANOVA. The conclusions of this study are: (1) there were effects of interaction between cooperative learning models (TPS and NHT) and learning motivation on mathematics learning achievement, (2) the mathematics learning achievement of students with high level of learning motivation who were taught using TPS model is higher than those who were taught using NHT, and (3) the mathematics learning achievement of the students with low level learning motivation who were taught using TPS model is insignificantly different than those who were taught using NHT.

Abstract

This study aims to reveal thinking profile and problem solving ability of mathematics department students of Universitas PGRI Semarang in solving plane problem by providing scaffolding. Type of this study is a qualitative research. The selection of research subject is based on students’ ability, feedback from lecturers and fluency both in oral or writing. Data collection technique used is Think Aloud Method. The results of the study provide an overview that after being given scaffolding, students with intermediate level of mathematics have characteristics: using the assimilation thinking process in understanding the problem, using assimilation and accommodation in planning to solve the problem. The students with lower level  of mathematics, they use assimilation thinking process in understanding the problems and planning the settlement whereas they are not able to use accommodation thinking process.  Students’ inability in accommodation thinking process causes they can not make solution planning correctly, solve the given problems and checking the solutions. The study shows the students experienced a lot of thinking process development since they have been able to use all of information for solving the problems. The number of the given scaffolding depends on individuals and the level of students’ tinking ability.

Abstract

This research aims at ascertaining kinds of students' difficulties and factors causing students' difficulties in solving mathematics problems of national examination towards students grade IX MTs Darul Huda Year 2015/2016. This research is a qualitative descriptive research. The research subjects were 6 students grade IX of MTs Darul Huda Sugihwaras having difficulties in solving problems in mathematics. The technique of collecting samples in this research was conducted by purposive sampling technique. The subjects were chosen based on data provided by a mathematics teacher of grade IX and tryout result. The methods of collecting data which were applied were essay test, interview, documentation, and questionnaire. The data analysis was conducted by quantitative and qualitative analysis. The result shows that, (1) kinds of difficulties encountered by students are (a) Difficulty in understanding problems is 20%, with an indicator that students misunderstand the problems. The cause is the low basic concept of mastery;(b) Difficulty in applying formula is 36.67%, with an indicator that students make mistakes in applying formula. The cause is students do not recognize formula which must be applied in solving problems, students do not know formula which must be used. (c) Difficulty in solving problems is 30%, with an indicator that students make mistakes when solving problems. The cause is students do not know steps in solving problems. (d) Difficulty in drawing conclusion is 15%, with an indicator that students make mistakes due to carelessness in solving problems. The cause is students are slipshod in understanding problems and in remembering formula. The factor causing students' difficulties is the low students' interest towards mathematics since media/props provided by teachers are not applied optimally yet.
