This research is motivated by the lack of mathematics teaching materials that can make students learn on their own. The teaching material can be created by teachers as they are the ones who possess the knowledge about their students’ characteristics. Further, learning materials are a set of materials (information, tools, or texts) that can aid teachers and students to carry out the learning process. The two-variable linear equation system (SPLDV) is one of the mathematics materials taught to eighth-grade students of junior high school; it contains problems related to daily life. However, it is found that this material is still difficult to master by most students. Therefore, it is necessary to develop the SPLDV teaching materials that can help students learn and solve problems as well as be used as examples by teachers in developing other materials. This research aimed to make problem-based SPLDV teaching materials. The research method refers to the Four-D Model by Thiagarajan, Semmel, and Semmel (1974). It consisted of defining, designing, developing, and disseminating. The results showed that problem-based SPLDV teaching materials could be used in learning activities as the students and the teachers had shown their positive responses after going through expert assessments. This study also suggested that the teachers use this teaching material and adopt teaching materials for other similar materials.

One of our goals should be to present students with challenging and motivating problem-solving activities. The detective story format is one setting that seems to capture the interest of our eighth-grade students. In creating these stories one of our purposes was to construct clues to reinforce previously developed concepts and skills. Usually we presented individual students with mimeographed copies of the detective stories, along with directions for solving the problems. Occasionally we presented the clues, one by one, to the entire class. We used detective stories as part of regular assignments, but they can also be used as problem-of-the-week items or as bonus problems on tests.
