Analysis of students' mathematical communication ability on student learning styles

Abstract

Students' mathematical communication ability is their ability to communicate mathematical concepts orally and in writing. The inability of students to fulfill indicators of their ability to relate something that happens to mathematical ideas, in addition to the failure of students to explain concepts, situations, and mathematical relationships, is the root cause of students' low ability to communicate mathematically. This study aimed to determine the mathematical communication abilities of students whose learning styles ranged from high to low. This research is descriptive qualitative research. A qualitative approach was chosen because this study used written and oral data. Class VII students of MTs Ma'arif Roudlotut Tholibin Metro, consisting of six male students and ten female students with various learning styles, were the subjects of this study. This study used interviews, learning-style questionnaires, and tests to collect data. Sources of information were obtained from the results of surveys on learning styles, tests, and interviews acquired from students. After being seen and researched, the results show that different learning styles have different abilities in mathematical communication. Based on student learning styles, the test scores for auditory learning styles are 77, visual 65, kinesthetic 62.5, and read and write 70. Therefore, it can be concluded that compared to students who use other learning styles, students with visual learning styles have better mathematical communication abilities.

Quantum Teaching Model: Untuk Meningkatkan Hasil Belajar Matematika Siswa MTs

“…Suatu proses pembelajaran bisa dikatakan berkesan jika pembejaran lebih ditekankan dan berpusat pada pelajar (student centered) (Humaidi et al, 2022;Qian, 2021;Silberman, 2023;Wote et al, 2020), yang berartikan siswa mampu melakukannya sendiri tanpa bergantung pada guru (Choirunnisa et al, 2022;Rumapea et al, 2017). dengan kata lain siswa dilatih untuk memainkan peranan-peranan dalam proses pembelajaran (Safitri et al, 2023;Sari et al, 2023;Sugianto et al, 2023). Dalam konteks pembelajaran tersebut, guru berperan sebagai fasilitator dan murid menjadi pelaku dalam proses pembelajaran, dengan harapan lewat proses tersebut mampu menstimulasi keaktifan dan kekreativitasan siswa (Meyer, 2023;Musriah, 2019;Mykhailova, 2022).…”

“…Education That myself, too, very emphasized by Allah in what he said in Surah Al-Alaq verses 1-5, which read : Based on the verse above, it is clear that Allah gives teaching to man For knowing what was not known before. As perfectly created creatures, humans are encouraged to increase their knowledge by pursuing education (Asgafi et al, 2023;Triono et al, 2023). Mustaqim said that the educator must radiate the central values which are reflected and visible through outward behavior in the form of speech, how to dress, how to eat, how to walk, how to think, attitude towards something, someone, and everything, even his faith and philosophy of life.…”
