This research aimed to determine whether Thinking Aloud Pair Problem Solving learning assisted by Schoology was effective to problem solving ability. The method of this research was quantitative-assisted interviews. This research involved 63 selected students of 252 of 8th grade students in one of junior high schools in Kudus. The results showed that: (1) students' problem solving ability in Thinking Aloud Pair Problem Solving learning assisted by Schoology achieved the mastery learning; (2) students’ problem solving ability who received Thinking Aloud Pair Problem Solving learning assisted by Schoology was better than students who received Problem Based Learning; and (3) mathematical disposition possitively affected to the students’ problem solving ability.
This study aims to determine the difference and increase of the mathematical literacy ability using PBL-PRS-E, PBL-PS and scientific approach, and to find out difference of the mathematical literacy ability between learning styles. This study belongs to quantitative research. The population in this study are 9th grade students SMP Negeri 1 Majenang, Cilacap academic year 2016/2017. This study uses a quasi-experimental design with pretest-posttest control group design. Then, methods of the study are test, questionnaire, and documentation. Data analysis was performed by one way anova, two way anova, and increase in the gain normalized. The results of the study are (1) the mathematical literacy ability of students in the experimental group 1 is better than the mathematical literacy ability of students in the experimental group 2 and control group, (2) there is no difference in the mathematical literacy ability between learning styles, (3) there is no interaction between the mathematical literacy ability based learning models and student's learning styles, and (4) ithe increase of students’ mathematical literacy ability in the experimental group 1 is better than in the control group but less than the increase of stuednts’ mathematical literacy ability in the experimental group 2. Eventually, this study suggests that 9 grade mathematics teacher in SMPN 1 Majenang can use PBL-PRS-E model to improve the learning result and mathematical literacy ability of students.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
