Influence Of Learning On Realistic Mathematics Ict-Assisted Mathematical Problem Solving Skills Students

Abstract

This research study aims to (1) determine whether or not the influence of ICT- assisted learning realistic mathematics to students' mathematical problem solving ability. (2) Develop the learning model of the integration of mathematics realistic education with Information Technology. The research was conducted in class VIII in the second semester of school year 2014-2015. The sample used in this study were 88 students in each class numbered 44 students in the experimental class and 44 students in the control class. The research validators included one expert in Mathematics education and one expert in instructional multimedia. The instruments employed in this study were a questionnaire, observation guide, and pre-test and post-test. The data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics. This study uses a quasi-experimental design. Instruments used in the form of test problem-solving ability in the form of a description. The research finding is that the mathematical problem solving ability of students taught using ICT-assisted learning realistic mathematics higher than that is not taught using ICT-assisted learning realistic mathematics.
