Development of mathematics teaching-learning material with metaphors approach

Abstract

The research proposed to develop teaching-learning material with metaphor phase in mathematics for students at High School. The teaching-learning materials developed in this study consist of three kinds of metaphors: grounding metaphors, linking metaphors, and redefinitional metaphors. The selection subject matter in modules is composition and inverse function. Hopefully, it would help students learn mathematics independently and students are expected to be able to understand abstract material concepts with more concrete and meaningful concepts. The method research is R&D with 3D models (Define, Design and Develop). Using the questionnaire, the teaching-learning material was validated by three lecturers at mathematics education and five mathematics teachers who teach at high school. Some notes from the validator provide improvement. And finally, teaching-learning material was tested on 27 students at State High School 1 Jawilan-Serang City class XII. The result shows that the teaching-learning material in review by validator is very feasible criteria (89%) and review from students shows suitable criteria for use in teaching-learning mathematics (86%), so the conclusion is the teaching-learning material is feasible to use in teaching and learning mathematics especially in subject composition and inverse function.

Development of e-worksheet based on engineering design process for composition function material

“…An essential component of an effective learning model is the availability of quality teaching materials. The primary objective of using teaching and learning materials is to facilitate learning, whether in a classroom or an online setting (Dwirahayu et al, 2022). Teaching and learning materials are tools utilized to deliver the educational content (Bušljeta, 2013).…”
