Discovery Learning Research in Mathematics Learning: A Bibliometric Review

Abstract

Discovery Learning is a learning model that changes learning from teacher-centred learning to student-centred learning so that students learn actively by discovering themselves, investigating themselves and cultivating a scientific attitude. The purpose of this research is to discover the research focus related to Discovery Learning in learning mathematics and its novelty. The method used is bibliometric analysis. The data taken comes from the Scopus database. The study results show increased publications related to Discovery Learning in mathematics learning from 2017 to 2023. The highest citation trend occurred in the 2017 publication, which has been cited 41 times. The country that has had a major impact on Discovery Learning research in mathematics learning is Indonesia. The research focus is divided into three parts, namely, 1) Discovery Learning, Mathematics Learning and student; 2) problem-solving and Indonesia; 3) junior high school and Geometry. New themes in this field are e-learning, teaching and learning, mathematical software, pre-service teachers, and technology.

The Inquiry Ethnobotany Learning Model: An Instructional Design Model to Enhance Student Environmental Literacy

“…The IEb model is constructed based on the Inquiry model integrated with ethnobotany. Previous research in many literatures reports that learning with an inquiry model enhances literacy (Calcagni et al, 2023;Chu et al, 2011;O'Neil et al, 2020), while the discovery learning model enriches students' experiences through direct observation, exploration, and active roles in enhancing literacy (Adriyawati et al, 2020;Bicknell-Holmes & Seth Hoffman, 2000;Muhammad et al, 2023). Furthermore, other research results also report that learning based on ethnoscience studies improves literacy (Abonyi et al, 2014;Fasasi, 2017;Rusilowatil et al, 2021), which is the expected impact of ethnoscience-based learning.…”

“…The IEb model is a learning model that combines the concepts of inquiry and discovery learning model in the context of ethnobotany, which results in the syntax of IEb (Figure 1). The inquiry model provides a foundation for students to lead the learning process through exploration and discovery (Ng & Fergusson, 2019;Rodrigues, 2014;Wenning, 2005), while the discovery learning model enriches students' experience through direct observation, exploration, and an active role in understanding biological concepts (Adriyawati et al, 2020;Bicknell-Holmes & Seth Hoffman, 2000;Muhammad et al, 2023). Ethnobotanical elements were added to the conceptual framework to align learning with plant knowledge, cultural use of plants, and sustainability practices (Peticca-Harris et al, 2016;Van Wyk & Gorelik, 2017).…”

Modelo conceptual para la enseñanza y aprendizaje de matemáticas universitarias

“…Uso de software: en las dos asignaturas se implementan softwares en línea como Symbolab, WolframAlpha y calculadoras online (principalmente las disponibles en OnlineMSchool y GeoGebra). La puesta en práctica combinada potencia dimensiones del aprendizaje: apoyar los procesos de visualización, conjeturación y comprensión (Arcavi, 2003;Khatin-Zadeh et al, 2023;Ruiz et al, 2019), agilizar y simplificar los procesos rutinarios con robustez matemática, verificar resultados, y asistir la conceptualización de los objetos de estudio (Cuicas et al, 2007;Muhammad et al, 2023).…”

Exploring the Landscape of work readiness in vocational students: A Bibliometric Analysis

“…Bibliometrics is a statistical method used to analyze publications and is used as a basis for determining publication trends (Soraya et al, 2023;Triansyah et al, 2023). Many studies have used this method to analyze publications, especially in the field of education (Muhammad, Darmayanti, et al, 2023;Siahaan et al, 2023).…”
