Analysis of Students Mathematical Understanding using the Pirie-Kieren Lens
Abstract
Abstract: Creating a learning environment that supports students understanding is an important notion in mathematics education (Carpenter and Lehrer, 1999). In this case, it is necessary to have a flow in the learning process. Learning trajectory will help teachers apply models, teaching material strategies and appropriate assessments according to students thinking stages. The flow of student learning in the development of symbols and their meaning in mathematics can be done through technology and information (Bakker et al., 2003). The purpose of this study is to analyze the understanding of mathematical concepts in high school students using the Pirie-Kieren theory lens. Based on the results of the analysis of student worksheets for groups with visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles, they have fulfilled the layer of Piere-Kieren understanding up to the stage organizing layer. The difference in the results of the worksheets of the students in the three groups of learning styles can be seen in their process of finding ways to arrange the candies boxes equally.
Keywords: mathematics learning, Piere-Kieren theory, high school students.
Abstrak: Menciptakan lingkungan pembelajaran yang mendukung pemahaman siswa adalah gagasan penting dalam pendidikan matematika (Carpenter dan Lehrer, 1999). Dalam hal ini, diperlukan adanya alur dalam proses pembelajaran. Learning trajectory akan membantu guru untuk menerapkan model, strategi bahan ajar dan penilaian yang tepat sesai dengan tahapan berpikir siswa. Alur belajar siswa dalam pengembangan simbol dan maknanya dalam matematika dapat dilakukan melalui teknologi dan informasi (Bakker et al., 2003). Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk analisis pemahaman konsep matematika pada siswa sekolah menengah dengan menggunakan lensa teori Pirie-Kieren. Berdasarkan hasil analisis lembar kerja peserta didik untuk kelompok dengan gaya belajar visual, auditori, dan kinestetik telah memenuhi lapisan pemahaman Piere-Kieren sampai pada tahap lapisan organising. Perbedaan hasil lembar kerja peserta didik ketiga kelompok gaya belajar terlihat pada proses mereka mencari cara untuk menyusun permen kotak menjadi sama rata.
Kata kunci: pembelajaran matematika, teori Piere-Kieren, siswa SMA.
