  Pages: 1 - 11
  Abstract: This study aims to determine process of developing teaching materials for android-based linear programming with an ethnomathematics approach that was valid, practical, and effective to improve students' mathematical problem solving abilities. This study uses research and development (R&D) methods with modifications to the ADDIE model developed by Dick and Carry Analysis, Design, Development or Production, Implementation and Evaluation. Data collection using test techniques and non-test techniques. The data analysis technique used a Likert scale, Guttman scale, one-sided average s test, proportion test, and N-Gain test.The results showed that the teaching materials had very valid criteria with an average percentage of material validity test of 93.84% and media validity test of 86.67%, very practical with an average practicality test of 90%, and effective for improving mathematical problem solving skills. students which include: (1) mathematical problem solving abilities of students who are taught using teaching materials meet individual mastery; (2) the proportion of completeness of students' mathematical problem solving ability test results after using teaching materials is more than 80% so as to achieve classical mastery. (3) based on the results of the pretest and posttest showed that the teaching materials were able to improve students' mathematical problem solving abilities where the average posttest score was greater than the average pretest score with an N-Gain result of 0.5659 on medium criteria. So, it can be concluded if the teaching materials are valid, practical, and effective so that they are feasible to be used in learning mathematics to improve students' problem solving abilities.

and Series Materials using PBL Model with Triastra Method
- Authors: Moh. Hendy Nugroho
  Pages: 12 - 20
  Abstract: This research attempted to increase motivation and mathematics learning achievement in the sequences and series material. It was in the form of Classroom Action Research (CAR) and used Triastra method, a method which combines Problem Based Learning (PBL), interactive quiz, and structured tasks through the interactive quiz. Two cycles were done by the researcher starting from pre-cycle. Each cycle consisted of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. 30 students, including 3 male students and 27 female students of the Class X Multimedia 2 of State Vocational High School 1 Kendal or SMK Negeri 1 Kendal in the academic year of 2019/2020 were involved. Their data were collected using test, observation, and questionnaire. To interpret the data, the researcher used descriptive analysis method. Findings showed that there was an increase in the motivation to the high category, namely from 74% in the cycle 1 to 87% in cycle II. In terms of learning achievement, it increased from 23% in the cycle 1 to 47% in cycle II, while the mean of the achievement increased from 5.95 in cycle 1 to 7.18 in cycle II. Thus, it is concluded that Triastra method can increase students’ motivation and mathematics learning achievement.

(HOTS) in junior highs school mathematics learning
- Authors: Uswatun Khasanah, Isti Hidayah
  Pages: 58 - 65
  Abstract: The Industrial Revolution 4.0 requires students to have Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS). To achieve this aim, an effective learning models is needed with various cosiderations. Many studies have been conductes and provide different conclusions, so that new problems arise regarding which learning models is considered more influential in improving students’ HOTS. This study aims to find, compared, and analyzed learning models that have been used in improved HOTS at the junior high school level. The method used being narrative meta-analysis. The subjects of this study were 2 (two) articles that met inclusion criteria and had passed the PRISMA procedure. The result showed that the effect size values for each group of Project Based Learning (PjBL) assisted by Geogebra, Challenges Based Learning (CBL) and Problem Based Learning (PBL) were 3.27, 2.25, and 1.09. This shows that PjBL assisted by Geogebra have a greater influence than other learning models because the synrax of the learning model applied and the learning media used.

Term of Self-efficacy
- Authors: Fitrania Ainurrachmani, Muh. Fajar Safa'atullah
  Pages: 66 - 77
  Abstract: Mathematical connection ability is one of the important abilities. The students' self-efficacy also needs to be considered. The purpose of this study was to determine the students' mathematical connection ability in REACT learning with the RME approach in terms of students' self-efficacy. This research uses mix method with a sequential explanatory design. The population in this study were eighth-grade students of Integrated Islamic Junior High School Nurul Islam Tengaran. The research instrument used was a test of mathematical connection ability and a self-efficacy questionnaire. The results of this study are (1) the mathematical connection ability of students with REACT learning using the RME approach achieves the criteria for learning mastery; (2) the average mathematical connection ability of students with REACT learning using the RME approach was better than students with expository learning; (3) there are differences in students' mathematical connection abilities in terms of students' self-efficacy levels in REACT learning with the RME approach; (4) Students with high self-efficacy fulfill the three indicators of mathematical connection ability. Students with medium self-efficacy are sufficient to meet the three indicators of mathematical connection ability but still need more practice. Students with low self-efficacy only fulfilled the second mathematical connection ability indicator.

Development of STEAM-based JHS Mathematics Teaching Material to Enhance
Students' Mathematical Connection
- Authors: Faisal Fazri Akmal, Mohammad Asikin
  Pages: 86 - 92
  Abstract: One of skills needed in the disruption era is the mathematical connection ability. However, this ability has not been optimally facilitated through learning process. In fact, the disruption era also encourages renewal, one of which is through the provision of quality learning resources both in terms of content and approach. In addition, the disrupstion era has also led to various approaches that more suitable with existing developments and changes, such as the STEAM approach. Therefore, it is important to develop a qualified STEAM-based mathematics teaching material to improve students' mathematical connection abilities. The development of this teaching material uses a modified Borg and Gall model of research and development (R&D) method. There are ten stages that aim to develop and describe the quality of STEAM-based mathematics teaching materials in three indicators, namely validity (characteristics suitability and feasibility), practicality (readability), and effectiveness in improving students' mathematical connection abilities. The final results are STEAM-based mathematics teaching materials that are valid (meet the teaching materials characteristics suitability and include in the very feasible category with feasibility score of 89,09%), practical (easy to understand with readability score of 67.13%), and effective in improving students’ mathematical connection abilities with moderate improvement category (with gain normalization index score of 0.395).

Motivation and Mathematics Achievement: A Case Study of Grade 11 students
in Ghana
- Authors: Florence Christianah Awoniyi
  Pages: 102 - 117
  Abstract: This study investigated the relationship between motivation and performance in mathematics using Deci and Ryan's Self Determination Theory. The participants were 2,575 grade 11 students from 10 senior high schools in the Cape Coast Metropolis, Ghana. The study employed a quantitative research approach and used a questionnaire and an achievement test to collect data. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data. The study found that only amotivation and introjection, among the five sub constructs of motivation considered in the study, recorded statistically significant contributions (p ˂ .05) to students’ achievement. Teachers, lecturers, and researchers may need to seek practical ways to promote intrinsic motivation in students for better engagement with mathematics. The study also indicated the likelihood of different kinds of amotivation with varied influences on the learning of mathematics. As a result, more investigation is required.
