The Impact of Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) Ability in Understanding Mathematical Concepts

Abstract

The purpose of this research was to identify the impact of Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) on the ability of understand of mathematical concepts. This study used a qualitative descriptive approach to the type of study is a library research, the data obtained from various sources related to the matters under investigation in the form of books and literature or the results of research and writings related to research the journal is both national and international journals. The results of this study indicate that Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) can have an impact on students' understanding of the concept. In order to achieve this, teacher should know and master various ways to teach students with Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) that can be used to improve students' ability to understand concepts in mathematics learning. The implication in this research is a collection of results of other people's research or theories underlying the problem that is wanted to be studied.

Development of integrated spermatophyta module potential of local plants on students' independence and concept mastery

“…Understanding the concept of Spermatophyta material with a higher level of achievement of learning outcomes in the experimental class is an indicator that the use of the Spermatophyta module in learning activities has a significant effect on improving student learning outcomes. This is to the opinion of Yudha et al, (2019) that contextual learning is proven to be effective in increasing students' conceptual understanding of the material being studied.…”

“…The contextual approach is a learning concept that helps teachers relate the material being taught to the environmental conditions of the students' closest world (Trianto, 2008). Through contextual learning, students will gain a stronger understanding of concepts when compared to the learning process that is only based on general understanding or examples (Rama Yeni et al, 2019), and contextual learning is proven to be effective in increasing students' conceptual understanding of the material being studied (Yudha et al, 2019).…”

Pemahaman Konsep Matematika Siswa Madrasah Tsanawiyah pada Statistika Ditinjau dari Gaya Belajar

“…Matematika sangat diperlukan dan berguna dalam kehidupan sehari-hari (Herawaty et al, 2019). Matematika bekerja untuk mengembangkan kemampuan memahami menghitung, mengukur, dan memecahkan masalah dalam kehidupan sehari-hari (Yudha, Sufianto, Damara, Taqwan, & Haji, 2019). Menurut Arifin & Aprisal (2020) dengan belajar matematika, siswa diharapkan berpikir logis, analitis, kritis, dan kreatif serta diharapkan mampu menyelesaikan semua permasalahan yang dihadapi, termasuk masalah terkait pelajaran.…”

Model CTL dan Online Learning: Dapatkan Berdampak Bagi Koneksi dan Disposisi Matematis Siswa SD?

“…Berdasarkan penjelasan sebelumnya, penggunaan model CTL sudah optimal guna meningkatkan koneksi dan disposisi matematis pada diri siswa. CTL menjadikan siswa bisa mengaitkan kehidupan sehari-hari dengan materi pembelajaran yang mereka temui (Sufianto, 2019), yang dapat mengkonstruksi secara mandiri pemahamannya terhadap suatu konsep matematika (Yudha et al, 2019). Lebih lanjut, ditinjau pada saat pembelajaran secara daring yang memperlihatkan respon dan sikap positif siswa terhadap matematika ialah saat diberikan kesempatan bertanya, menjawab pertanyaan dan memaparkan hasil diskusi kelompok di whatsapp grup kelas.…”
