And Performance

In research focused on self-efficacy it is usually teacher-related phenomena that are studied, while the main aspects related to pupils are rather neglected, although self-efficacy itself is perceived as a belief in one’s own abilities. Evidently, this strongly influences the behavior of individuals in terms of the goal and success in mathematical problem-solving. Considering that alternative teaching methods are based on the principle of belief in one’s own ability (mainly in the case of group work), higher self-efficacy can be expected in the pupils of teachers who use predominantly the well-working pupil-centered pedagogies. A total of 1133 pupils in grade 5 from 36 schools in the Czech Republic were involved in the testing of their ability to solve mathematical problems and their mathematical self-efficacy as well. Participants were divided according to the above criteria as follows: (i) 73 from Montessori primary schools, (ii) 332 pupils educated in mathematics according to the Hejný method, (iii) 510 pupils from an ordinary primary school, and (iv) 218 pupils completing the Dalton teaching plan. In the field of mathematical problem-solving the pupils from the Montessori primary schools clearly outperformed pupils from the Dalton Plan schools (p = 0.027) as well as pupils attending ordinary primary schools (p = 0.009), whereas the difference between the Montessori schools and Hejný classes was not significant (p = 0.764). There is no statistically significant difference in the level of self-efficacy of pupils with respect to the preferred strategies for managing learning activities (p = 0.781). On the other hand, correlation between mathematical problem-solving and self-efficacy was confirmed in all the examined types of schools. However, the correlation coefficient was lower in the case of the pupils from the classes applying the Hejný method in comparison with the pupils attending the Montessori schools (p = 0.073), Dalton Plan schools (p = 0.043), and ordinary primary schools (p = 0.002). Even though the results in mathematical problem-solving are not consistent across the studies, the presented results confirm better performance of pupils in some constructivist settings, particularly in the case of individual constructivism in the Montessori primary schools. The factors influencing lower correlation of self-efficacy and performance in mathematical problem-solving ought to be subject to further investigation.

The Impact

Abstract Metacognitive skills play an important role in solving mathematical problems. However, there is a lack of empirical studies on the role of metacognitive skills in solving mathematical problems, particularly non-routine ones. Therefore, this study was undertaken to identify students' metacognitive skills and the impact of such skills on non-routine mathematical problem solving. By using a quantitative method, a total of 304 students in Johor Bahru district were involved in the study. A Self-Monitoring Questionnaire (SMQ) and a mathematical test were used in data collection. Data were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics such as frequency, percentage, mean, the Mann-Whitney U test, and the Kruskal-Wallis H test. Results showed that the level of the students' performance in solving non-routine mathematical problems was very low. There was also a significant difference in the metacognitive skills among students with different performance levels in solving non-routine mathematical problems, and we concluded that these metacognitive skills should be emphasised in this process.

AbstractThis paper presents a case study of the experiences of a special educator named Ms. Montes (pseudonym) teaching standards-based mathematics during Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT) during spring 2020. Ms. Montes was interviewed twice during this period; data were analyzed through inductive thematic analysis. Pre-COVID, Ms. Montes provided her students daily opportunities to tackle challenging mathematical problems and taught self-regulation strategies for students to better understand themselves as learners. After the shift to ERT, Ms. Montes described “the wall between us” as various barriers that made teaching mathematics online far more challenging. Challenges included supporting students with productive struggle when not physically present with them and supporting student self-regulation during mathematical problem-solving. Supporting students with disabilities to learn mathematics during ERT and distance learning will require considering emotional and affective dimensions of learning. Coaching students and families in self-regulation strategies could support student engagement in mathematical problem-solving in online learning.

Artikel mengkaji strategi pembelajaran self-regulation dalam mengembangkan kemampuan pemecahan masalah matematika. Self-regulation merupakan sebuah proses belajar individu melalui faktor lingkungan (environment), faktor pribadi (person) dan faktor perilaku (behavior). Komponen kemampuan self-regulation terdiri atas komponen kognitif, motivasi dan metakognisi. Pada kegiatan pembelajaran khususnya pada mata pelajaran matematika, peserta didik harus mempelajari kemampuan berpikir kritis dan kemampuan memecahkan masalah dari fakta-fakta yang sudah ada (learn by doing). Strategi pembelajaran self-regulation adalah suatu strategi pembelajaran yang memberikan keleluasaan kepada peserta didik untuk mengelola secara efektif pembelajarnya sendiri dalam berbagai cara sehingga mencapai hasil belajar yang optimal. Penerapan strategi pembelajaran self-regulation terhadap peserta didik, akan memberikan dampak pada pengembangan kemampuan pemecahan masalah matematika. Peserta didik yang memiliki self-regulation, akan memiliki motivasi yang lebih besar dalam belajar dan memecahkan masalah matematika. This article examines self-regulation learning strategies in developing mathematical problem-solving abilities. Self-regulation is an individual learning process through environmental factors, personal factors and behavioral factors. The component of self-regulation ability consists of cognitive, motivation and metacognition components. In learning activities, especially in mathematics, students must learn the ability to think critically and the ability to solve problems from the facts that already exist (learn by doing). Self-regulation learning strategy is a learning strategy that gives students the freedom to effectively manage their own learners in various ways so as to achieve optimal learning outcomes. The application of self-regulation learning strategies to students will have an impact on the development of mathematical problem solving abilities. Students who have self-regulation, will have greater motivation in learning and solving mathematical problems.
