AbstractResearch on mathematical problem solving has a long tradition: retracing its fascinating story sheds light on its intricacies and, therefore, on its needs. When we analyze this impressive literature, a critical issue emerges clearly, namely, the presence of words and expressions having many and sometimes opposite meanings. Significant examples are the terms ‘realistic’ and ‘modeling’ associated with word problems in school. Understanding how these terms are used is important in research, because this issue relates to the design of several studies and to the interpretation of a large number of phenomena, such as the well-known phenomenon of students’ suspension of sense making when they solve mathematical problems. In order to deepen our understanding of this phenomenon, we describe a large empirical and qualitative study focused on the effects of variations in the presentation (text, picture, format) of word problems on students’ approaches to these problems. The results of our study show that the phenomenon of suspension of sense making is more precisely a phenomenon of activation of alternative kinds of sense making: the different kinds of active sense making appear to be strongly affected by the presentation of the word problem.

This study was employed to enhance learning motivation and mathematical problem-solving abilities of class VIII A students of SMP Negeri 7 Purwokerto through SFAE learning with problem-solving strategies. The subjects of this study were 31 students of class VIII A SMP Negeri 7 Purwokerto. This study is a Classroom Action Research (CAR), which was conducted collaboratively and participative. The action research was carried out in 3 cycles, with each cycle consisting of 2 meetings. Students were given a questionnaire to measure learning motivation and a test to measure their mathematical problem-solving abilities at the end of each cycle. Data collection techniques in this study include observation, questionnaires, tests, and documentation. Data analysis was carried out by descriptive qualitative and quantitative. The finding showed that implementing of SFAE learning with problem-solving strategies could increase students’ learning motivation and mathematical problem-solving abilities. The study found that (1) The average percentage of the overall learning motivation questionnaire is steadily increased from 61.71% in cycle one to 68.10% in cycle two and 76.03% in cycle three. (2) The average percentage of student tests for problem-solving abilities in cycle one also significantly increases from 35.21% to 53.20% in cycle two and 79.61% in cycle three. The average student test rate for each indicator of problem-solving ability has met the study’s success criteria.

<p>This research aims to build students’ abilities in mathematical problem-solving and to explain the uniqueness of the steps of realistic mathematic education in building the problem-solving abilities of a grade 11 (social science track) class in the study of probability at one of the schools in Kupang. The observation results found that every student was having difficulties to solving the mathematical problems, particularly the narrative questions. The research method is Kemmis and Taggart model of Classroom Action Research which was conducted in three cycles, from October 4 to November 3 with twenty-four students. Triangulation had been done to every instrument of variable. The data of mathematical problem-solving was obtained from the students by using test sheets, questionnaires, and student’s discussion sheets. Meanwhile, the data of realistic mathematic education’s variable was obtained from three sources: mentors, two colleagues, and students that were using test sheets, questionnaires, and student’s discussion sheets. The results showed that the fourteen-steps of Realistic Mathematic Education that had been done were able to build mathematical problem-solving abilities of the students. This was evidenced through the increase of three indicators of mathematical problem-solving in every cycle. The average increase of indicators of mathematical problem-solving of the grade 11 students from the first to the third cycle was 10%. Therefore, it can be concluded that the Realistic Mathematics Approach can build the ability of problem-solving of grade 11 students in a social science track studying probability at one of the schools in Kupang.</p><strong>BAHASA INDONESIA </strong><strong>ABSTRACT</strong>: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membangun kemampuan pemecahan masalah matematis siswa dan menjelaskan kekhasan langkah-langkah pendekatan matematika realistik untuk membangun kemampuan tersebut di salah satu sekolah di Kupang kelas XI IPS pada materi peluang topik kaidah pencacahan. Pada hasil pengamatan ditemukan bahwa setiap siswa kesulitan dalam memecahkan masalah matematis khususnya soal berbentuk cerita. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah Penelitian Tindakan Kelas model Kemmis dan Taggart yang berlangsung selama tiga siklus, yaitu 04 Oktober – 03 November kepada 24 orang siswa.

Mathematical problem solving is a problem solving that uses mathematical problem solving. Students in the problem solving did not use the polya method so that students succeeded in difficulties. Educators still use conventional learning models so that students become bored, passive and reluctant to ask whether going forward working on the questions given by the educator, so that new learning models need to be applied. The e-learning learning model assisted with Edmodo learning media is an online presentation material on an Edmodo account using the mobile phone of students. PAM is the knowledge learned by students before getting learning material. This study aims to study the interaction of e-learning learning models assisted by Edmodo learning media to solve mathematical problems. This study is quantitative research. Data collection used with tests, interviews, collection and collection. The data analysis technique uses two-way anava test with cells that are not the same. From the results of the analysis, the influence of the e-learning learning model on mathematical problem solving abilities. It is necessary to question the high, medium, and low mathematical initial knowledge of Great mathematical problem solving ability, then there is no difference between assisted e-learning learning models edmodo, mathematical initial knowledge of mathematical problem solving abilities.
