Middle School Students’ Motivation in Solving Modelling Activities With Technology

Abstract

Researchers pointed at modelling activities as affecting positively students' learning including motivation to learn, but little research has studied students' motivation to learn mathematics during their engagement in modelling activities with technology. Three groups of 4-5 students carried out the Roc modelling activity utilizing the internet and GeoGebra. The data was collected using video recording and students' solution texts. Inductive and deductive content analysis were used to analyze the data. The research results indicated that the groups experienced motivational patterns that included both sympathy and mastery styles, where these styles were accompanied with confirming styles in general, but sometimes with rebellious styles too. In addition, carrying out the modelling activity using the internet and GeoGebra, the group members were engaged primarily with processes-based motivational styles, but doing so, they kept in mind their goal to build a mathematical model of the Roc bird.

Analisis Literasi Digital Mahasiswa dalam Pembelajaran Matematika Berbasis Geogebra

“…Berdasarkan analisis yang telah dilakukan tersebut, maka secara umum diperoleh persentase tingkat literasi digital mahasiswa dalam pembelajaran berbasis geogebra yang dapat dilihat pada tabel 3 berikut : (Daher, 2021). Sementara hasil penelitian Yatim, dkk adalah terjadinya peningkatan pemahaman siswa melalui pembelajaran yang memanfaatkan geogebra (Yatim et al, 2022).…”

Analisis Bibliometrik Berbasis VOSviewer: Motivation and Interesting in Learning Mathematics

“…Oleh karena itu, guru matematika harus memperkenalkan siswa pada aplikasi matematika dunia nyata untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan mereka tentang kegunaannya yang secara tidak langsung akan meningkatkan minat mereka terhadap matematika dengan secara langsung memicu kepercayaan diri dan motivasi mereka untuk belajar matematika. Motivasi siswa dalam pembelajaran dipengaruhi oleh emosi negatif sehingga motivasi menurun, namun di sisi lain rasa frustrasi siswa, dengan adanya pilihan alat teknologi yang berbeda, memotivasi kelompok untuk mencari pilihan berbeda yang akan membuat hasil matematika menjadi lebih akurat (Daher, 2021).…”

The Design of Tasks to Suit Distance Learning in Emergency Education

“…The recent emergency education that took place as a result of COVID-19 necessitated designing activities in order to fit the online learning to which the schools and universities turned due to the closure. This design involved the use of digital tools that helped advance students' learning, especially their engagement [1], their motivation [2] and their emotions [3]. It is interesting to study how teachers designed activities during the emergency education, and especially the aspects of learning on which they focused.…”
