<p>This research aims to: (1) find out the differences in mathematical literacy skills of students using the DLPS learning model and those using conventional learning models, (2) find out the differences in students' mathematical literacy skills in terms of verbal skills of students, (3) to find out the interaction of the DLPS learning model in terms of students' verbal skills on mathematical literacy skills of students. The research approach uses a quantitative approach with the type of quasi-experimental research and design of Factorial design 3 x 2. The population in this study is all eighth grade students of MTs Muhammadiyah Kampung Baru with the total is 48 people. The sample in this study is the eight-grade A  as a control class while the eight grade B is  as an experimental class. The instrument used in this study is a test of students 'mathematical literacy skills in the form of pretest and posttest and questionnaires to measure students' verbal skills. The data analysis technique used are descriptive statistical analysis and inferential statistical analysis. The result shows that: (1) there is a difference between the application of the DLPS learning model and the conventional model on the mathematical literacy skills of students, (2) there is a difference in students' mathematical literacy skill in terms of vebal skill of students, and (3) there is no interaction effect between the DLPS learning model in terms of verbal skill to mathematical literacy skills of students</p>

The present study aimed to investigate the effects of geometry instruction activities conducted in nature based on modeling, game-based, and cooperative learning methods on achievement, mathematical motivation, and visual mathematical literacy perceptions of third-grade elementary school students. The present study is a quantitative study conducted with a pre-test/post-test experimental design with a control group. The study was conducted with 61 students (35 students in the experimental group and 26 students in the control group). Modeling-, game-, and collaborative learning-based activities were conducted with the students in the experimental group. It was determined that the achievements of students who were instructed with modeling-based activities in geometry were high when compared to that of the students instructed with collaborative learning- and game-based methods, and those in the control group where no intervention was applied. This group was followed by the game-based and collaborative learning groups. Based on the variable of motivation, the mean motivation of the students in the modeling group was higher when compared to that of the students in the collaborative learning, game-based, and conventional instruction groups. This group was followed by the collaborative and game-based learning groups. Also, based on the visual mathematical literacy perception variable, the mean visual mathematics literacy perception of the students in the collaborative learning group was higher when compared to that of the students in the groups where the modeling, game-based, and conventional instruction methods were used. This group was followed by the modeling and game-based learning groups.

Over half of all students enrolling at a particular university in KwaZulu-Natal fail to complete a degree. This article is wanting to determine to what extent the marks they obtain for English and Mathematics at school impact on their probability of graduation at this university. In addressing this problem, other student specific factors associated with their gender, race and the type of school they have attended need also to be properly accounted for. To provide answers for this study, the performance of 24 392 students enrolling at the university over the period 2004 to 2012 was followed until they graduated or dropped out from their studies. A structural equation model was fitted because it allows one to separate a direct effect from that of an indirect effect. Gender, race and school background were found to be very significant with males, Black Africans and students coming from a less privileged school background having a smaller probability associated with eventually graduating from this university. Males tend to perform better than females in Mathematics, with females performing better males in English. More importantly, however, a single percentage point increase in one’s mark for English increases the probability associated with graduating from this university far more than would be the case if their Mathematics mark were to increase by a single percentage point. In the light of these mediated results, perhaps this university should be directing their efforts more towards improving the English (rather than mathematical) literacy of students entering the university.

This research implementation a flipped classroom with ethnomathematics nuances in online learning for geometry and measurement courses to investigate its effect on increasing student independence and mathematical literacy skills. Face-to-face flipped classroom sessions with an ethnomathematical nuance are carried out online through zoom meetings and out-of-class sessions using an LMS in the form of Elena (Unnes elearning). This type of research is an experimental study using 35 samples of geometry and measurement class students selected by purposive random sampling technique in the Department of PGSD UNNES. The research instrument used a written test to measure mathematical literacy skills and a questionnaire to measure learning independence. The statistical tests in this research were the two-sample t-test, paired t-test, and gain test. The results showed an increase in learning independence and students' mathematical literacy skills by implementing an ethnomathematical flipped classroom with Elena's support for online learning of geometry and measurement.

Mathematical concepts are always useful in everyday life to solve problems at hand. Learning mathematics that is associated with the surrounding (contextual) circumstances, especially in the culture of an area, is expected to be able to improve the ability of students in learning. Learning mathematics which is associated with the culture of an area is called ethnomathematics. Moreover, the government is currently promoting literacy. Literacy in mathematics is called mathematical literacy/mathematical literacy is the knowledge to know and apply basic mathematics every day such as to communicate both orally and in writing, to reason, and to solve problems. This service is carried out through a zoom meeting application that is given to 6th semester students, as a preparation effort before students carry out the Introduction to Learning Environment (PLP) at school. This service method uses the ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implementation, and Evaluation) model. In the results of this service, a discussion was held on the ethnomathematics of the Bentian Dayak tribe in relation to learning mathematics and participants were able to make mathematical literacy questions. In the end, participants will be able to apply ethnomathematics and mathematical literacy in learning
