Model of Geometry Realistic Learning Development with Interactive Multimedia Assistance in Elementary School

Abstract

Initial research results indicate there are problems in learning mathematics, especially in geometry material in elementary schools. Students still have not had the opportunity to build their own knowledge. The purpose of this study is to produce a realistic learning model of interactive multimedia-assisted geometry to improve the reasoning ability of fourth grade elementary school students who meet valid, practical and effective criteria. This research is a design research that combines the Plomp and Gravemeijer & Cobb development model which consists of three phases: preliminary research (experimental preparation), prototyping phase (conducting experiments, retrospective analysis) and assessment phase. The subjects of the study were students of grade four SD thirty seven Pekanbaru. The results of the study indicate that the learning design developed has fulfilled valid, practical and effective. Valid in terms of content and construction. Practical in terms of implementation, convenience and time required. Effective in terms of potential impact on reasoning ability.

Realistic Mathematics Education: A Bibliometric Analysis

“…In other words, it is necessary to integrate learners' real world and their immediate environment into teaching practices (Effendi et al, 2018;Zulkardi & Putri, 2006). Mathematics should be closely relevant to learners, be composed of their daily problems and reflect their real life conditions (Putri, 2011;Alim et al, 2020). Developed by the Freudenthal Institute, this theory has been adopted and implemented in many countries, including Indonesia, South Africa, USA, Belgium, Singapur, China, South Korea, England, etc.…”

Elementary Students’ Attitudes towards an Online Visiting Lecture in Covid-19 School Closure Period

“…The realistic approach is one of the learning approaches that have been around for a long time. There are many studies on the development of realistic-based learning media (Alim et al, 2020;Putri & Zulkardi, 2018;Van den Heuvel-Panhuizen & Drijvers, 2014;Zulfah et al, 2020). Learning with a realistic approach also shows better results compared to learning with a traditional approach (Herawaty et al, 2020;Utari & Zulkardi, 2019;Zaranis & Exarchakos, 2018).…”

Pengembangan Video Animasi Materi Pengukuran Panjang dan Berat untuk Siswa Kelas II Sekolah Dasar

“…Kemudahan siswa memahami materi pembelajaran menjadi salah satu pertimbangan guru dalam melakukan inovasi dalam membuat media pembelajaran. Salah satu upaya guru untuk memperjelas penyampaian materi yaitu dengan visualisasi dalam bentuk gambar bergerak dan dapat ditambahkan suara atau yang dapat disebut dengan video animasi (Alim et al, 2019;Alim, Fauzan, Arwana, et al, 2020;Hermita et al, 2020) Video animasi adalah suatu teknologi untuk menangkap, merekam, memproses, mentransmisikan, dan menata ulang gambar yang semula diam seolah-olah menjadi hidup dan telah disesuaikan dengan karakter yang dibuat dari kumpulan gambar yang berubah beraturan (Jembari et al, 2015). Pemanfaatan media video animasi sudah banyak diterapkan dalam kegiatan pembelajaran, namun penggunaanya pada pembelajaran matematika masih tergolong jarang (Kurniawati et al, 2016, Alim, 2018.…”
