Some previous research has reported the effectiveness of RME in improving students' problem solving ability and cognitive achievement. This quasi experimental research, therefore, aimed to investigate the difference in students' mathematics cognitive achievement after implementing RME and conventional learning. The controlled treatment consisted of mathematics learning with RME equipped with snake and ladder board game and conventional learning. Instrument measuring students' cognitive achievement was developed by the researcher and validated by some experts prior to the research. The results of the t-test confirmed the difference in students' cognitive achievement both of the experimental and control group. The students who were taught with RME achieved better than the students who were involved in conventional learning. This research finding has suggested that it is important for teachers to empower students' intellectual ability through RME and games in order that meaningful and contextual learning can be generated. It is recommended that future research will explore the effect of RME on students' attitude, problem-solving ability, learning interest, or other variables related to mathematics learning.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui peningkatan hasil belajar peserta didik pada materi sistem persamaan linear dua variabel melalui model pembelajaran flipped classroom di kelas VIII SMP Negeri 15 Ambon. Subjek penelitian ini adalah peserta didik kelas VIII6 SMP Negeri 15 Ambon yang berjumlah 25 orang, jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian tindakan kelas. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan dalam tiga siklus dengan 5 pertemuan. Data penelitian ini dikumpulkan melalui lembar observasi dan tes. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa setelah diberikan tindakan pada siklus I peserta didik yang mencapai ketuntasan sebanyak 6 orang dengan pencapaian 24%, dan pada siklus II diperoleh jumlah peserta didik yang mencapai ketuntasan 11 orang dengan pencapaian 44%, selanjutnya pada siklus III terjadi peningkatan yaitu diperoleh jumlah peserta didik yang mencapai ketuntasan 23 orang dengan pencapaian 92%. Dilihat hasil tes peserta didik dari siklus II dan siklus III maka telah terjadi peningkatan yaitu sebesar 48% dengan menggunakan model pembelajaran flipped classroom pada materi sistem persamaan linear dua variabel di kelas VIII SMP Negeri 15 Ambon
Ethnomathematics study of islands indigenous peoples in Maluku Province, Indonesia. Objectives: The aim of this study was implementation of a mathematics study in learning related to island communities' context in Maluku. Methods: This study used methods of exploration, documentation and literature study. Findings: Many local communities in the Maluku did not realize that all selling activities, handicraft, or woven are included in mathematics in the form of fractions or geometry. Conclusion: This study concluded that the activities of selling, weaving and crafting in the community display fraction and geometry patterns
This study aims to determine the characteristics of students' metacognition in solving mathematical literacy problems. The metacognitive traits explored are related to awareness in planning, monitoring, and evaluating the design of the thinking process used. The research method used is a mixed-method (sequential explanatory), which uses quantitative research results to conduct qualitative research. The research subjects were 80 early semester students who took the literacy test and chose six respondents representing the upper, middle, and lower groups, with two people in each group to be interviewed. The results showed that the mathematical literacy skills of prospective teachers were at a low level. Metacognitive characteristics that appear in the low group are (1) realizing that the solution of strategy is not right but not improved; (2) planning to develop a settlement strategy, but are not sure, (3) do not carry out the re-check process, and (4) do not believe what is being thought and do not understand the concept. Metacognitive traits in the middle group are (1) aware of what they are thinking, (2) consciously plan various strategies to improve thinking accuracy, but do not always use these strategies, (3) tend to monitor the thinking process, and (4) show tendency to master the basic mathematical concepts of the problems at hand.The characteristics of metacognition in the high group during problem-solving are (1) Using various strategies to demonstrate or improve the accuracy of thinking (sketching, drawing), (2) Analyzing the problem before solving it, and (3)Understanding and mastering the mathematical concepts that underlie the problem which is given.
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.
