The implementation of problem-based learning method in education within various disciplines of knowledge cannot be denied. The method is able to improve the traditional learning paradigm accommodating to the 21st century learning. The main aim of this review is to investigate the findings of studies related to the disciplines involving Problem Based Learning and its effects on education. The study uses a systematic approach analysis and synthesizes 43 articles from the year 2015 until 2018 including peer review articles and full text articles from ERIC and Google Scholar. It shows that the quantitative approach is the most used research method in investigating the disciplines applying PBL and the effects of such method towards education. This review involves various levels of education that use PBL as a method of teaching and learning. Overall, the results of this study show that Mathematics education is the discipline that uses PBL the most in teaching and learning. By and large, 95% of its users believe that PBL has positive impacts towards education and can be used as an alternative method at any level of education.
Technological improvements in the era of the Industrial Revolution 4.0 can be applied to learning mathematics as a medium of improving teacher performance. In addition, a pandemic situation forces teachers and students to implement online learning. One of the learning media that can help teachers in learning mathematics online is Socratic. The Socratic system generally consists of four basic components: acting humanely, thinking humanely, thinking rationally and acting rationally. For example, the Socratic can provide alternative solutions to the differential equations problems. Mathematics problems can be recorded by the Socratic through three main features:1) home screen, which is used to take pictures of solving the problem needed; 2) search results, the image that has been recorded will be searched for a solution through Socratic's artificial intelligence in internet database, and 3) an explanation, the search results that have been obtained, have their own explanation. Teachers and students as users may find the best solution for each explanation by the Socratic. Meanwhile, this study uses four stages of the literature review process:1) search for relevant literature, 2) evaluation and source selection, 3) identification of themes, and 4) outline of the structure of the writing. This paper systematically investigates the use of the Socratic as a technology application that can assist mathematical problems.
This study was conducted to identify elements (teaching activities) that teachers can engage with involving a combination of M-learning methods with Problem-Based Learning methods (M-PBL). This study was conducted using the Nominal Group Technique (NGT) involving 11 experts with various fields of expertise such as mathematics education, educational technology, M-learning, pedagogy and the curriculum as well as primary school mathematics education teachers. The analysis of the findings was carried out using descriptive statistics (percentages) to determine the priority and ranking for each teaching activity. The findings show that overall, there are 30 relevant M-PBL teaching activities that can be carried out by teachers. The findings also show that teachers sharing the learning objectives that the pupils need to achieve using learning applications that are available on mobile devices (98%) ranked first while the teacher classifying the information obtained from each group according to priority through learning applications available on mobile devices (75%) ranked last. In conclusion, this study shows that both methods can be combined to form a new teaching method in the current 4.0 education era.
Google Classroom is an online learning management system designed to help teachers create and manage online classrooms. Over the years, it has become an essential tool for teachers and students, transforming the way they learn and interact with each other. This study takes a systematic approach to assess the users' perspectives and perceptions towards Google Classroom and the implementation of Google Classroom in mathematics education. This study used comprehensive analysis and synthesis of 21 articles from 2018 until 2022, including full-text articles and peer review journal articles from Google Scholar and ERIC for better comparison between sources. Results of this study show that the quantitative was the most used method in exploring the users' perspective and perception towards Google Classroom and the implementation of Google Classroom in mathematics education. The results of this study show that most users hold favorable views of Google Classroom and find it compelling and has positively impacted learning outcomes. Overall, Google Classroom is a useful tool for facilitating remote learning, and its popularity is expected to rise in the coming years as the technology becomes more important in education.
