ResumoO presente artigo propõe-se a apresentar algumas reflexões, embasadas em uma pesquisa bibliográfica, sobre a modelagem matemática como metodologia de ensino. Discutem-se os pressupostos, as características, as etapas e as possibilidades de organização curricular de atividades que são pautadas nessa alternativa metodológica. Destaca-se o papel da teoria da aprendizagem significativa na fundamentação e na defesa da modelagem matemática como proposta de ensino. Efetua-se um confronto das várias perspectivas oriundas dos textos científicos selecionados para estudo e análise, de modo a buscar convergências que evidenciem o potencial da modelagem matemática para: (1) favorecer a utilização pedagógica dos conhecimentos prévios dos aprendizes e (2) instigar o comprometimento deles com as situações de aprendizagem. Conclui-se o trabalho apresentando argumentos que caracterizam essa metodologia de ensino como favorecedora da aprendizagem significativa de conteúdos matemáticos, com o intuito de disponibilizar aos professores de matemática subsídios teóricos que os auxiliem na tomada de consciência do processo de interação cognitiva, entre as novas informações e os conhecimentos prévios do educando, subjacente às atividades de modelagem matemática. Palavras-chave: Modelagem Matemática. Aprendizagem Significativa. Educação Matemática. AbstractThis article presents some reflections based on a bibliographic research on mathematical modeling as a teaching methodology. The assumptions, characteristics, stages, and possibilities of curricular organization of activities based on this methodological alternative are discussed. The role of significant learning theory in the foundation and defense of mathematical modeling as a teaching proposal is highlighted. A comparison of the various perspectives from the scientific texts selected for study and analysis is made to find convergences that highlight the potential of mathematical modeling to: (1) favor the pedagogical use of the students' prior knowledge and (2) instigate their commitment to learning situations. The work is concluded with arguments that characterize this teaching methodology as fostering significant learning of mathematical content, to provide mathematics teachers with theoretical subsidies that help them to become aware of the cognitive interaction process, among the new information and the students' previous knowledge that underlies the mathematical modeling activities. Keywords: Mathematical Modeling. Meaningful Learning. Mathematics Education.

Special Region

Mathematics exists as rooted in human ideas, ways, and techniques to respond to their environments. Along with its development, mathematics has been taught through formal education or schooling in the flat- not flexible ways and far from students' social and cultural lives. Indonesia is rich with culture, including the Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY). It is called a city of culture. Educators are not yet aware of this richness in the learning process to integrate it as the starting point. It is hard to find in mathematics textbooks in Indonesia, which put cultural context as starting points. Therefore, this study aims to explore Yogyakarta's culture in terms of contexts used in mathematics learning.  It is an ethnography study. Furthermore, the data was collected through literature artifacts, field observation, and interviews with resource persons who understand the seasons, system, and calculation of birth and death days. It is to clarify the researcher's understanding of the literature. This study showed that Yogyakarta's people use mathematical modeling to determine the seasons' system and funerary dates. These models have the potential to be used as a starting point in learning mathematics.

The Subject

Mathematical modeling appears today as a dynamic tool for teaching and learning mathematics, because it connects mathematics with real world applications thus increasing the student interest on the subject. In the present paper a method is developed that uses grey numbers for evaluating student mathematical modeling capacities and a classroom application is presented illustrating it. This new assessment method is useful in particular when the student performance is evaluated with linguistic characterizations (grades) and not with numerical scores, which makes non feasible the calculation of the mean value of those grades. Grey numbers are indeterminate numbers which are defined with the help of the real intervals and they have found nowadays many applications in real life, science and engineering for handling approximate data.

AbstrakParadigma pembelajaran di sekolah menengah kejuruan sebaiknya mempertimbangkan kebutuhan dunia kerja, mengacu pada standar kompetensi dunia kerja atau dunia industri misalnya kemampuan pemecahan masalah dan kemampuan berpikir kritis. Kemampuan ini dapat ditumbuhkembangkan melalui pembelajaran matematika, khususnya pemodelan matematika. Oleh karena itu, tim pengabdi memandang perlu dilakukannya sebuah workshop untuk mewadahi guru-guru SMK dalam meningkatkan penguasaan materi tentang pemodelan matematika. Program Pengabdian Masyarakat ini, diselenggarakan dalam bentuk workshop selama 2 hari untuk (1) Menjelaskan tentang Pemodelan Matematika, (2) Menyusun model matematika dari masalah kontekstual / soal aplikasi, (3) Menyelesaikan masalah kontekstual / soal aplikasi dan (4) Media pembelajaran berbasis teknologi informasi yang dapat membantu menyelesaikan masalah kontekstual / soal aplikasi. Berdasarkan evaluasi diperoleh beberapa hal sebagai berikut: 1) Kegiatan PPM workhop Pemodelan Matematika ini telah dilaksanakan dan berjalan dengan baik dan lancar; 2) Peserta mengikuti workshop dengan antusias dan memandang bahwa kegiatan ini perlu diselenggarakan; 3) Berdasarkan hasil evaluasi dari angket, pelaksanaan kegiatan workshop ini berjalan sangat baik dengan skor 4.29 dari skor maksimum 500; 4) Berdasarkan tes kemampuan pemodelan matematika, diperoleh peserta memperoleh skor rerata 7,85 dari skor maksimum 10. Kata kunci: workshop, pemodelan matematika, Geogebra, Tora Improving Professionalism of Mathematics Teacher In Gunungkidul Vocational Schools Through Mathematics Modelling WorkshopAbstractThe learning paradigm in vocational high schools should consider the needs of the world of work, referring to the competency standards of the world of work or industry such as problem solving skills and critical thinking skills.
