Analisis Pemberian Scaffolding Melalui Online Form Untuk Mengatasi Kesulitan Berpikir Spasial Mahasiswa

Abstract

There are many difficulties and obstacles faced by online learning, including spatial thinking difficulties in Geometry courses. So it is necessary to provide assistance given by lecturers or researchers to overcome these difficulties. One of the efforts made is by using the Online form, which contains scaffolding. This research will describe scaffolding in overcoming students' spatial thinking difficulties through online form-based media. This research is descriptive qualitative research. The research subjects were 34 students who took online learning in the Analytical Geometry subject. The material used in this study is a circle, which is presented in an online form that is equipped with scaffolding. In the results of the study, about 21% of students had difficulty thinking spatially in working on each geometry problem, which then gave scaffolding can overcome these difficulties. On average, students can overcome their difficulties in giving second and third scaffolding.

“…Based on Vygotsky's theory, scaffolding is an effort or assistance to construct student abilities which is carried out when experiencing difficulties in independent learning (Dintarini & Zukhrufurrohmah, 2021). The principle of scaffolding is to provide sufficient assistance to students, so that if students' difficulties can be overcome, the provision of scaffolding can be sufficient or abolished (Hermkes et al, 2018).…”
