Investigating the effectiveness of using various mathematics learning media among students with various learning styles

Abstract

Appropriate mathematics learning media is one factor determining the success of learning mathematics. Teachers can use various types of media to help students learn mathematics. However, teachers must consider the learning media's suitability with students' characteristics. This study aims to 1) reveal the most effective learning media for visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles; 2) determine the interaction between learning media and learning styles on students' mathematics achievement. Therefore, this study used a 3 × 3 factorial design. The sample in this study was 29 eighth-grade students in junior high school. Researchers used questionnaires and mathematics achievement tests to collect research data to be analyzed quantitatively. The results show that interactive applications are the most effective learning media for students with different learning styles. Besides, there is a significant interaction effect between learning media and learning styles on students' mathematics achievement.

Developing Application Main Condensate Water System as a Learning Media

“…(Dyanti, et al, 2022). Interaction between learning media and new learning styles through interactive application was the most effective way to engage students and their multiple senses in their learning process (Laswadi, et al, 2022). On the other hand, the development of the application was chosen to provide students's comprehensive understanding of theoretical and practical matters of working systems, the cost was cheaper compared to developing the simulator (Sabrina, et al, 2018).…”
