Developing Mathematics Learning Materials based on Multiple Intelligence Theory, Learning Trajectory, and Conceptual Knowledge in the Topic of Probability for Eighth Graders

Abstract

Abstract-This research aims to develop mathematics learning materials based on multiple intelligence theory and learning trajectory with conceptual knowledge oriented in the topic of probability for Junior High School's students grade VIII, which are valid, practical, and effective. The learning materials includes Lesson Plan and Worksheet that provide various facilities to students, for example through variations of learning activities, contexts, and illustrations, and by emphasizing on the hypothesis of students' thinking and teachers' alternatives responses so that the teachers can handling the difficulties which students face during the learning process. Type of the research was research and development with ADDIE model, consisting of Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. The lessons plan was valid with a score of 3.99 on a scale 5. While the worksheet obtained a score 4.09 on a scale 5 with valid category. Based on practicality evaluation result of student's questionnaire, learning materials obtained a score 3.47 on a scale 5 with practical category and observation sheet of learning implementation percentage was 86.84%. Then, there are 86.11% students who have a minimum understanding of the concept in the high category. Based on z-test, the learning materials are effective with level of significant 0.05.

Enhancing Mathematical Skills of the Students Through Digi-Tech Apps

“…This result was also supported by the study of Kusrini & Rizkianto (2018) where the objective of the research resulted in acceptability of ViPhyLab application which was flexible and interactive, with high levels of appropriateness and quality, and able to improve students' independence in learning and their conceptual comprehension of rotational dynamics materials. The application is also equipped with material presentation, virtual practicum, exercise items, and media with interesting and interactive appearance.…”

Use of instagram to improve verbal-linguistic intelligence and kinesthetic-body intelligence of low-class students through scientific approach in primary schools

“…Learning using a scientific approach can refer to multiple intelligence theories so that at this stage, the teacher can determine the intelligence that will be facilitated in the lesson. The teacher's learning plan and worksheets are also followed by students' hypotheses of thought and teacher's alternative responses to every possibility so that the teacher can overcome the difficulties students face during the learning process (Kusrini & Rizkianto, 2017). Based on the previous description, the scientific approach is considered to be able to develop the verballinguistic and kinesthetic intelligence of the body.…”
