Practical Measurement

The teaching of measurement is usually included in elementary school mathematics. Uses for the ideas of measurement are applicable to all segments of the curriculum. Practical measurement forms a significant part of needed skills for child and adult alike. A cursory glance at the need and the application of measurement will give ample evidence to its importance. Teaching the ideas of measurement is not an easy task. Examples of measurement must come from the real world to effectively illustrate this important subject. Measuring lends itself to activity-oriented experiences, and yet we still find teachers listing equivalents and expecting children to memorize them. This issue of The Arithmetic Teacher is devoted to the teaching of measurement in the elementary schools and represents the position that measurement should be experienced.

Primary School Teacher Education

This study is aimed to develop teaching materials, which is an English module for Elementary School Teacher Education Programs in Indonesia based on the integrated language skill approach. A number of 75 respondents from the Elementary School Teacher Education Programs at three universities participated in this research, they are from Universitas Pendidikan Ganesha in Bali, Universitas Mulawarman in Samarinda, and Universitas Negeri Manado in Manado. At the Elementary School Teacher Education Programs, no book with a practical model of integrated language skill is available at these universities. In collecting and analyzing the data, this study combined the research and development (RD) model of Gall et al. (2003). The process comprised four stages to develop this module, they are (1) preliminary studies and needs analysis, (2) product design and development, (3) evaluation, field test, and product revision, (4) and product refinement and dissemination. The data was gained through three instruments from questionnaires, interviews, and formative tests to measure the mastery of English teaching materials for primary school teacher education. The result of this study demonstrated that the module is feasible and effective for English Elementary School Teacher Education Programs at the three universities.

This research develops e-module teaching materials by using a digitalized book application based on ethno constructivism and also discerns students' responses to the e-modules. We employed the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate) to create the books. The ADDIE model consists of five steps, namely (1) introduction, (2) planning, (3) development, (4) implementation, and (5) evaluation. The subjects of this study were 21 fifth-grade students of elementary schools 112/I. The re-sults of this study captured that the product was favored by most of the students with percentages of interest (72.73%), motivation (77.27%), and perception (63.6%).

Design of this research was classroom actionresearch. Based on the results of mathematics learning students obtained data onthe initial score taken from the scores of the first semester Mathematics examstudents before the application of the Jarimatikaini method was 59.62 then thecycle I daily test increased by 13.63 to 73.42 with an increase percentage of22.80%. It can be concluded that the application of the Jarimatika method canimprove the results of third grade elementary school mathematics learning.

Teaching Of Mathematics

There are many different approaches to the teaching of mathematics. They range from the formal, axiomatic type of presentation to the strictly utilitarian emphasis. The first is concerned with the logical structure of mathematics and seeks to transcend any particular relevance to ordinary experience. The second approach concentrates upon the development of a manipulative skill with some important mathematical operations. Most of the teaching at the junior high school and senior high school levels would today probably fall somewhere between these two extremes. In any of these methods, however, the teacher frequently finds that he is giving little attention to the development of mathematical intuition and what might be called a “freedom from the discipline.” It is the purpose of this paper to describe a program that attempts to emphasize and enhance the students' intuitive abilities.

Everyday Problems

Mathematical literacy requires individuals to solve a problem and also apply mathematics in everyday problems, which results in the ability to interpret solutions to those problems. In PISA it is known that Indonesia's mathematics literacy score is among the lowest, as well as in Guguk District Lima Puluh Kota Regency. One way to overcome this is to start introducing literacy to students early on. The introduction of literacy must be instilled in students since they are still in elementary school. Based on this, a training program and workshop was held regarding the application of mathematical literacy in mathematics learning in elementary schools in Guguak District with elementary school mathematics teacher partners who are members of the KKG SD Gugus III Kecamatan Guguak Kabupaten Lima Puluh Kota.

In a time of quick changes and technological development, the key task of teaching mathematics is to encourage and develop mathematical thinking. The teaching of mathematics is important in the life of every individual because mathematics permeates all aspects of human activity. Mathematical thinking is necessary for solving many problems in everyday life and work of every individual. The ability to find rules in the initial teaching of mathematics is one of the abilities of mathematical thinking, more precisely logical, and its encouragement and development in teaching contributes to the encouragement and development of mathematical thinking. This paper presents specific examples of problem tasks that encourage and develop the ability to find rules in the initial teaching of mathematics, as well as the results of the research conducted to examine the effects of the application of these problem tasks. The research sample consisted of 238 third grade elementary school students. The research results show that after the application of the experimental program, there was a significant improvement in the ability of finding rules in experimental group. The results confirm that this ability can be encouraged and developed in the initial teaching of mathematics.

The research entitled the influence of teaching materials bikin dongeng yuk! towards the learning outcomes of elementary school students. This research is motivated by the low student learning outcomes in Indonesian language learning, especially the material elements of the story and the lack of teaching materials about language learning in elementary schools. The use of existing language teaching materials still cannot maximize learning due to the lack of interesting teaching materials. The purpose of this study was to improve the learning outcomes of elementary students in Anggrawati I Elementary School, Maja Subdistrict, Majalengka District and Sukaraja Elementary School I, Sukaraja District, Sukabumi Regency. The use of the method in this study is pre-experimental with one group pretest-posttest design which aims to determine the effect of teaching materials to make a fairy tale !. The instrument used in this study is the observation sheet in the form of a checklist with the indicators are the intrinsic elements of the story. The results of the study were an increase in the learning outcomes of elementary school students, especially in the material elements of the story.Keywords: Teaching Materials bikin dongeng yuk!, Learning Outcomes

A project on the use of the MINICALCULATOR IN THE TEACHING OF ELEMENTARY SCHOOL MATHEMATICS is in its third year of development at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Children in the second, third, and fifth grades are being taught important mathematical concepts, using the calculator as an aid. The project emphasizes the development of mathematical ideas, rather than simply using the calculator for a computational tool. In addition to developing curriculum materials, information has been collected that may help to resolve some of the calculator-in-the-classroom issues. Results indicate, for example, that young children have the manual dexterity needed for 11button pushing11 and that teaching children to use calculators does not result in over-dependence on the calculators. For sample curriculum materials and further information about the research results, contact J. Fred Weaver, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Teacher Education Building, 225 N. Mills Street, Madison, WI 53706.
