Teori Perkembangan Piaget dan Vygotsky : Bagaimana Implikasinya dalam Pembelajaran Matematika Sekolah Dasar?

Abstract

Mathematics is an important subject whose applications were widely used in life. However, many students have difficulty in learning mathematics, including elementary school students. This study aimed to examine the depth of Jean Piaget's cognitive development and Lev Vygotsky's sociocultural theory and their implication for mathematics learning at elementary school age. This study used a qualitative approach with the literature study method. Sources of data in the form of books, journals, and the results of previous research related to research problems. Data collection in this study was carried out using online searches. Data analysis was done by content analysis. The results of this study indicate that according to Piaget's theory of cognitive development, the thinking stage of students in elementary schools was generally in the concrete operational stage. So that the recommended mathematics learning was in the form of student-centered active learning such as discovery learning and contextual learning methods. Meanwhile, based on Vygotsky's sociocultural theory, he recommends cooperative and collaborative mathematics learning as well as optimizing the existence of scaffolding and social interaction in learning.

Learning Based on Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) in the Era of Society 5.0

“…The journal articles taken have something to do with the problems discussed in this study: how the learning process is based on higher-order thinking skills in welcoming the era of society 5.0 in elementary schools. The results of collecting information from the relevant articles are then analyzed using the content analysis method (Agustyaningrum et al, 2022).…”

“…Akibatnya, proses memperoleh pengetahuan matematika biasanya melibatkan bekerja dengan simbol-simbol dan menangani konsep-konsep abstrak. Siswa di kelas bawah terus berjuang dalam memahami konsep matematika (Agustyaningrum & Paskalia, 2022).…”

Implementasi Teori Bruner pada Bilangan Pecahan melalui Model Luas dan Model Panjang

“…Berdasarkan teori tersebut, saat anak berada di usia sekolah dasar (7-12 tahun), anak berada di tahap operasional konkret. Pada tahap tersebut anak menggunakan kemampuan penalaran dan manipulasi logis menggunakan objek fisik yang nyata (Agustyaningrum et al, 2022).…”
