REACT strategy toward mathematical communication abilities of madrasah ibtidaiyah students

Abstract

Mathematical communication skills are one of the important future competencies possessed by students. Based on a preliminary study conducted on students in one of the Madrasah Ibtidaiyah shows that most students have difficulty communicating mathematical ideas. This study aims to figure out students’ mathematical communication skills on the subject of the volume of cubes and cuboids for the students taught withe the Relating, Experiencing, Applying, Cooperating and Transferring (REACT) strategy were better than those who taught with conventional learning. The research method used was a quasi-experimental design of The Nonequivalent Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design conducted on fifth grade students in one of the Ibtidaiyah Madrasahs in Bandung Regency. Based on the results of the study concluded that the mathematical communication skills of students who get learning with REACT strategies are better than mathematical communication skills of students who obtain conventional learning.

Studi Meta Analisis: Pengaruh Strategi React Terhadap Kemampuan Komunikasi Matematis Siswa

“…Pembelajaran Strategi REACT termasuk pembelajaran kontekstual (Crawford, 2001). Strategi REACT mendukung siswa untuk menjadi aktif dalam mengonstruksi pengetahuannya secara lisan dan tertulis melalui proses pembelajaran yang berfokus pada siswa (Nuriah et al, 2021;Pratama & William, 2018;Isnaeni et al, 2015). Proses Relating ialah materi yang akan diajarkan dikaitkan dengan materi yang sudah dipelajari sebelumnya atau dipertautkan dengan pengalaman seharihari melalui interaksi tanya-jawab.…”

“…Artikel ilmiah yang mempublikasikan hasil penelitian primer mengenai pengaruh pembelajaran strategi REACT terhadap kemampuan komunikasi matematis tersedia dalam berbagai jurnal (Nuriah et al, 2021;Arifin et al, 2014;Musyadad & Avip, 2020;Pratama & William, 2018;Nugraha et al, 2019;Afifah et al, 2017). Namun dari penelitian studi primer belum menjelaskan secara menyeluruh mengenai pengaruh karakteristik studi yang memiliki peran dalam tingkat variasi antar studi.…”
