Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui peran konteks gelas dalam mendukung pembelajaran konsep keliling lingkaran dan mengetahui respon peserta didik terhadap pembelajaran matematika menggunakan pendekatan Realistic Mathematics Education (RME). Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di Sekolah Menengah Pertama (SMP) Surya Bangsa, Tangerang. Subjek penelitian ini adalah peserta didik kelas VIII.A Tahun Ajaran 2015/2016 semester II dengan jumlah peserta didik sebanyak 13 orang. Instrumen penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini terdiri atas Lembar Aktivitas Peserta Didik (LAPD), Soal Evaluasi, Lembar Observasi Guru, Panduan Wawancara dan Angket Respon Peserta Didik. Teknik pengumpulan data pada penelitian ini meliputi rekaman video, pengisian dokumen penelitian, observasi dan wawancara. Analisis data dilakukan menggunakan model Miles & Huberman (1994) yang terdiri atas reduksi data, penyajian data, penyimpulan dan verifikasi. Pembelajaran dalam penelitian ini menggunakan konteks gelas berdasarkan karakteristik pendekatan RME. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa konteks gelas berperan penting dalam mendukung pembelajaran konsep keliling lingkaran. Selain itu, peserta didik memiliki respon yang positif terhadap pembelajaran matematika yang diberikan menggunakan pendekatan RME. Learning Circumference using the Context of Glass AbstractThis research aims to find out the role of glass as a context in supporting the concepts of the circumference of the circle and to know the response of learners in learning mathematics using Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) approach. This research conducted at Surya Bangsa Junior High School, Tangerang. The subjects of this study are students of class VIII.A in the academic year 2015/2016 semester II with the number of learners as many as 13 people. The research instruments used in this study consist of Student Activity Sheet (SAS), Evaluation Test, Observation Sheet, Interview Guide, and Questionnaire. Data collection techniques in this study include video recording, completion of research documents, observation, and interviews. Data analysis technique using Miles & Huberman (1994) model consisting of reduction data, presenting data, conclusion and verification. The learning in this study uses the context of glass based on the characteristics of the RME approach. The results of this study indicate that the context of glass plays a significant role in supporting learning the concept of the circumference of the circle. Also, learners have a positive response in learning mathematics provided using the RME approach.

Is Design

The purpose of this research is to understanding the role of line and angle learning design in students’ comprehension of mathematical concept and also to understanding the students’ learning result through LAS (Lembar Aktivitas Mahasiswa) or student activity paper that is based on the Indonesian Realistic Mathematics Education approach. The research method used in this research is design research. The result of this research shows that the activity of using props or drawing a clock circle could motivate the students in checking out the shaped angle, So the students will have the idea to calculate how big is the angle that is shaped by the clockwise and also to determine its types. So, the design that is used could help the students to understanding the concept of angle through the context of clock circle.

<p>Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) is an instructional theory that has been implemented in many countries around the world to link mathematics to real-world situations. The effectiveness of implementing RME in mathematics education is highly dependent on the role of teachers. This study was conducted with 64 high school teachers to survey their understanding and perspectives on RME and the status of RME implementation in teaching the topics of ellipse equation. Through qualitative analyzing the survey results, the study found that teachers are interested in RME, although the percentage of teachers formally trained in this theory was not high. Besides, the survey shows that it is necessary to help teachers overcome difficulties and improve the frequency and effectiveness of RME application in teaching mathematics.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Article visualizations:</strong></p><p><img src="/-counters-/edu_01/0841/a.php" alt="Hit counter" /></p>

Happy Mood

This study demonstrates the significance of individual difference factors, particularly gender and sensation seeking, in predicting media choice (examined through hypothetical descriptions of films that participants anticipated they would view). This study used a 2 (Positive mood/negative mood) × 2 (High arousal/low arousal) within-subject design with 544 undergraduate students recruited from a large northeastern university in the United States. Results showed that happy films and high arousal films were preferred over sad films and low-arousal films, respectively. In terms of gender differences, female viewers reported a greater preference than male viewers for happy-mood films. Also, male viewers reported a greater preference for high-arousal films compared to female viewers, and female viewers reported a greater preference for low-arousal films compared to male viewers. Finally, high sensation seekers reported a preference for high-arousal films. Implications for research design and importance of exploring media characteristics are discussed.
