Abstract

Purpose: This study explores the effect of culturally responsive teaching (CRT) and learning motivation on numeracy achievement among elementary students in coastal West Papua, Indonesia. It investigates how integrating local cultural contexts into mathematics instruction and fostering student motivation can enhance learning outcomes. Method: A quantitative ex post facto design was applied, involving 30 third-grade students from SD Negeri 35 Kimindores. Data were gathered through a culturally responsive teaching scale, a learning motivation questionnaire, and a contextual numeracy test. Multiple regression analysis was used to assess the relationship between these factors. Finding: The analysis revealed that both culturally responsive teaching and learning motivation significantly impacted numeracy achievement, explaining 69% of the variance in students' performance. Students exposed to culturally relevant lessons showed greater motivation and improved numeracy skills. Significance: The study highlights the value of culturally responsive pedagogy in improving student engagement and achievement in mathematics. By aligning lessons with students' cultural contexts, educators can make learning more meaningful and inclusive. This research emphasizes the need for culturally grounded teaching strategies, particularly in remote areas, to ensure educational equity and foster deeper learning.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to understand how students’ interest in participating in campus organizations relates to their academic performance. The question is not simply whether interest leads to better grades, but how this interest, which grows from personal motives and external influences, might interact with students’ learning habits in ways that are not always linear or predictable. Method: The research involved 140 students, and organizational interest was measured using a questionnaire that had been validated through confirmatory factor analysis. GPA was collected as the measure of achievement. When the data were examined, both variables showed clear deviations from normality and contained several outliers. Rather than forcing the data into a conventional regression model, the study employed Siegel’s median-based robust regression, which is more capable of producing stable estimates when extreme values distort the usual assumptions. Findings: The analysis showed that organizational interest is supported by indicators with adequate loading values, and the regression results revealed a positive and statistically meaningful relationship between interest and GPA. Students who expressed stronger organizational interest tended to earn higher academic scores, even when the data’s irregularities were taken into account. Significance: The study suggests that organizational engagement is not merely an extracurricular activity but a space where students develop habits and skills that support academic success. It also underlines the value of choosing analytical methods that genuinely fit the nature of educational data, especially when they contain outliers or non-normal patterns.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to understand how the cultural elements of Surabaya’s Tugu Pahlawan Monument can be used to introduce basic numeracy in primary school, especially concepts related to plane geometry. The goal is to show that cultural landmarks can offer real and relatable examples for young learners. Method: The research was conducted through a qualitative ethnographic approach. The researcher observed the monument directly, spoke with on-site guides and staff who were familiar with its history, and documented various architectural and visual features. All information gathered from notes, photographs, and short interviews was analyzed using the Miles and Huberman framework to identify patterns that relate to mathematical ideas. Findings: The study found that many parts of the monument display clear geometric forms. These include rectangles, squares, circles, triangles, trapezoids, rhombuses, and even a ten-sided figure. Such shapes appear in the floor patterns, plaques, murals, decorative ornaments, museum structures, and the wheels of military displays. Each of these elements can be directly connected to geometry topics taught in primary classrooms. Significance: The findings highlight the potential of local heritage as a meaningful resource for mathematics education. When students see that the shapes they learn in class appear in a monument tied to their own city’s history, mathematical concepts become easier to grasp and more engaging. This approach supports early numeracy while also helping learners build a stronger connection to their cultural environment.

Abstract

Purpose: This study examines students’ ability to comprehend statistical concepts explained by ChatGPT and explores both students’ and lecturers’ perceptions regarding the clarity and instructional appropriateness of ChatGPT’s explanations within the framework of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS), particularly in learning contexts that require high cognitive engagement. Method: A qualitative approach with a quasi-experimental design was employed. Participants were divided into an experimental group that utilized ChatGPT during learning activities and a control group that received conventional lecturer-led instruction. Data were gathered through quizzes, classroom observations, and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) involving students and lecturers. The collected data were analyzed descriptively using the Miles and Huberman model to identify recurring themes related to conceptual understanding, learning behavior, and instructional effectiveness. Findings: The results reveal that most students experienced substantial difficulty in understanding statistical explanations generated by ChatGPT. Students frequently relied on copying answers without critically engaging with the reasoning process. Major obstacles included fragmented explanations, unfamiliar symbolic representations, and the use of technical language that exceeded students’ conceptual readiness, leading to weak conceptual understanding. Conversely, students who possessed a solid foundation in statistical concepts demonstrated better learning outcomes, even when using ChatGPT. Lecturers consistently emphasized that ChatGPT cannot substitute the pedagogical role of lecturers but may provide limited support when its use is guided and supervised. Significance: This study underscores that ChatGPT should be positioned as a supplementary instructional tool rather than a primary source of explanation in statistics education. Effective integration requires structured guidance, conceptual reinforcement, and the cultivation of students’ critical thinking skills to avoid misconceptions. These findings contribute to the discourse on responsible human AI collaboration in higher education and offer practical implications for implementing generative AI within ITS based learning environments.

Abstract

Purpose: This study investigates undergraduate students’ understanding and misconceptions concerning continuity and differentiability across multiple mathematical representations. It specifically examines whether misconceptions remain stable or shift when concepts are presented in symbolic, graphical, and contextual forms. Method: A qualitative exploratory case study was conducted involving 83 undergraduate mathematics education students at a leading public university in Indonesia. Data were collected using 11 validated and reliable multiple-choice items designed to elicit reasoning across different representations. Students’ written responses were analyzed to identify patterns of understanding and error. In-depth interviews with selected participants were conducted to clarify underlying reasoning processes. A collective case study framework was employed, treating each representation as a micro case to enable systematic cross-representation comparison. Findings: The results indicate that misconceptions were widespread and often consistent across representations. Common errors included interpreting graphical smoothness as proof of differentiability, assuming differentiability without verifying continuity, and conflating the existence of a limit with the function’s value. Many students relied on procedural manipulation, visual intuition, or contextual familiarity rather than formal limit-based reasoning, revealing fragmented conceptual understanding. Significance: The findings highlight the need for instructional approaches that explicitly integrate multiple representations and strengthen connections between intuitive reasoning and formal definitions. By addressing persistent misconceptions across representations, calculus instruction can better support the development of coherent and conceptually grounded mathematical understanding.
