Ferris wheel is one amusement playground that resembles a giant spinning wheel. Many students are familiar with the Ferris wheel in the mini version of it at night market festivals. This is the potential for learning mathematics. Furthermore, there is a mathematical learning approach called Indonesian Realistic Mathematics Education (IRME) where…

Critical thinking (CT) is a type of convergent thinking explored when students learn mathematics. This study aims to obtain a comprehensive representation of students' mathematical Critical Thinking (CT) abilities, based on the mathematical ability level. Data were obtained from 35 students using CT skills tests and semi-structured in-depth…

This study aimed to produce a learning path that can help students understand the concept of percent using the context of an egg rack. This study used a design research method through the Indonesian Realistic Mathematics Education approach which was carried out at Elementary School No. 2 Gumawang, Indonesia. Data were obtained through observation,…

Research on mathematics teacher professional development has emphasized primarily teaching quality enhancement. Mathematics task as one of the vital components in mathematics teacher education has been sparsely investigated. The purpose of this research is to explore mathematics teachers' beliefs and practices in applying a problem-based task…

STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education is an alternative learning approach to constructing 21st century skills. It encourages the emergence of innovation to develop these skills. The study uses a systematic literature review method adapted from Sharif and Moher "et al." using PRISMA. The content analysis aimed…

Problem-solving is the essence of mathematics and is the main goal in learning mathematics. Many students did not have good problem-solving skills based on the field observations. The problems grew up because the students were not used to solving the problems and the problem-solving stages. They did not include issues with high complexity, such as…

Based on the findings of an error analysis revealing that Indonesian ninth- and tenth-graders had difficulties in solving context-based tasks, we investigated the opportunity-to-learn offered by Indonesian textbooks for solving context-based mathematics tasks and the relation of this opportunity-to-learn to students' difficulties in solving these…

In this study, three dimensions were evaluated: the process of developing the curriculum, course distribution to serve quality assurance, and development of courses for "Merdeka Belajar"(Freedom to Learn) program. Curriculum documents and papers presented in the focus group discussion were used as data sources. Content analysis design…

Geometry mastery is a must for high school students, affected by several factors such as learning approach (LA), gender, level of basic geometry competencies (BGC) and level of mathematical self-efficacy (MSE) among others. The purpose of this study is to examine those factors that affect the geometry problem solving (GPS) abilities of the…

Education is at the forefront of global development. Meanwhile, persons with disabilities (PWD) play a prominent role in development. Based on the importance of the role of PWD in development, it is necessary to improve the rights, dignity, and welfare of persons with disabilities. One of the action that can be taken by providing equal, equitable…

To investigate student difficulties in solving word problems in algebra, we carried out a teaching experiment involving 51 Indonesian students (12/13 year-old) who used a digital mathematics environment. The findings were backed up by an interview study, in which eighteen students (13/14 year-old) were involved. The perspective of mathematization,…

This research aimed to determine the effectiveness of the issue, discussion, establishment, and application (IDEA) learning model in embedding mathematical concepts understanding. It is a quantitative study with a quasi-experimental approach. This research was conducted at Malang Islamic University with students majoring Mathematics education…

Mathematical problem solving was an crucial skill to be mastered by primary school student so that will help student to unravel their problems encountered in everyday life. By using the realistic mathematics approach, students learn mathematical concept based on reality or scope around students. This study aimed to develop an eligible learning…

The mathematical representation ability is essential in solving mathematical problems, especially in algebraic expressions problems. Therefore, it is crucial to have a valid design of learning activities to support students' mathematical representation ability. Several previous studies claimed that realistic mathematics education is one of the…

The geographical and astronomical position of the Indonesian archipelago causes Indonesia to have two seasons, namely the rainy and dry seasons. The rainy season occurs in October-March, and the dry season occurs in March-October. The rainy season often occurs with high rain intensity, especially during the La-Nina period, on the other hand, the…
