Pengaruh Pendekatan Matematika Realistik Berbantu Media Konkret terhadap Kemampuan Representasi Matematis Siswa

Abstract

Kemampuan belajar matematika yang perlu dipelajari siswa salah satunya adalah kemampuan representasi matematis. Tujuan dari dilakukannya penelitian ini adalah untuk meneliti pengaruh pendekatan matematika realistik berbantu media konkret terhadap kemampuan representasi siswa. Desain yang digunakan pada penelitian ini menggunakan Posttest-Only Control Design. Jenis penelitian menggunakan quasi-experiment yang terdiri dari 2 kelas III SD Negeri kebayoran Lama Selatan 03. Instrumen yang digunakan adalah soal essay yang terdiri dari 4 nomor yang sesuai dengan indikator kemampuan representasi matematis. Teknik analisis data menggunakan uji-t. Hasil pada studi ini adalah pendekatan matematika realistik berbantu media konkret memiliki pengaruh yang baik terhadap pelajaran matematika di kelas. Perbandingan kemampuan representasi matematis antara 2 kelas yang diuji sangat signifikan. Hasil kemampuan representasi matematis siswa yang diberlakukan pendekatan matematika realistik berbantu media konkret lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan kelas yang diberlakukan pembelajaran konvensional.

Pengaruh Pendekatan Matematika Realistik (PMR) Terhadap Kemampuan Berpikir Kreatif Kelas IV SDN Sunter Agung 03 Pagi Jakarta Utara

“…This finding is strengthened by previous research, which states that a realistic mathematical approach is effectively applied to the learning process with the help of concrete objects (Kusumaningrum & Nuriadin, 2022). The realistic mathematics learning approach improves elementary school students' cognitive mathematics learning outcomes (Puspitasari & Airlanda, 2021).…”

“…Thus, students no longer consider mathematics to be a difficult and troublesome subject. Happy students who study mathematics subjects will easily represent mathematics lessons in other forms of representation (Kusumaningrum & Nuriadin, 2022;Mendrofa, 2021;Putri & Basir, 2020). The realistic mathematical approach has steps appropriate to the steps to solve the problem proposed by Polya and described by Treffers and Gofffree as several steps to the Realistic Mathematics Approach, namely understanding real contextual problems.…”

“…Previous research findings stated that the results of students' mathematical representation abilities that were applied to the realistic mathematics approach assisted by concrete media were higher than the classes that were applied to conventional learning (Kusumaningrum & Nuriadin, 2022). The realistic mathematics learning approach improves elementary school students' cognitive mathematics learning outcomes (Puspitasari & Airlanda, 2021).…”

“…Due to this, mathematics learning must be taught to all students at every level from elementary school to high school to provide learning for students to be able to have real, original, critical, and creative thinking skills and also be able to solve problems in daily life. Mathematics is a subject that studies abstract studies through various relationships (Bayuni, 2021;Kusumaningrum & Nuriadin, 2022). Learning mathematics is the most important factor in encouraging students' thinking skills to have critical, real, creative, and systematic thinking (Setyawan, 2020;Surya, 2017).…”

Contextual-based student worksheets designed to facilitate mathematics representation ability

“…Facts on the ground show that most teachers do not view mathematical representation skills as an important foundation in learning mathematics (Huda et al, 2019). Mathematical representation skills need to be carried out by students because it is related to the ability of mathematical relationships and problem solving (Kusumaningrum & Nuriadin, 2022). Pictures, graphs, diagrams, or other forms of representation are used to express a mathematical problem (Lette & Manoy, 2019).…”
