Reflection of English Lecture
The Problem of Mathematics Teaching
Monday,February 25th 2013. The main idea the neeting is about The
Problem of Mathematics teaching. Especially to teaching method that used by
teacher.
Picture 1 Picture 2
The
first, picture 1. Thismethod reflect traditional method of teaching learning of
mathematics is traditional teaching. In this method its very old method, that the
purpose is just transfer of knowladge.In this method, there are characteristic
of student and teacher behaviour. The characteristic of student behaviour are :
1. Student inclined passive, because the
teacher just explain the material so student can`t taken in the lesson.
2.
Student will borong, because the teacher just explain the
material.
3.
And than student easy sleepy.
And the characteristic of teacher behaviour are :
1.
Teacher inclined
Conceited
2.
Teacher just explain
the lesson.
3.
Teacher just show their
skill.
4.
Teacher not trust at
her/his student.
5.
Teacher just transfer
knowladge.
Second,
picture 2. Means the teacher to fasilited student. In this method the actor is
student, that in the first is focus to teacher now focus to student. In this
method the student must be active at the lesson. The teacher fasilited using
various method, resource, trals or equipment. The resource can organaized as
web blog, thepurpose in order that to develop own knowladge, in everywhere we
can open this blog and can study from this.The student also can construct,
invent own life. The philosopy of this method is constructivism. In this
Method, the student are to be perceived
as seed, so teacher be fasilitated to grow up the ability of student until them
usefull.
In
the fact it`s not easy to implement the innovative method or teaching. Because
traditional method have been our culture from colonizer era until now. But the
innovative method must be implement because it is nature likes plant.
So
the problem of education comes from an adult. Means if the student have problem
with their study it could be comes from the teacher, how the teacher explain,
the teacher it could be push the student to accsess knowladge like teacher
thinking. It`s no provide now, it`s call stimulus respond. But now we can learn
from everything, like from internet from friend etc. In this innovative method
the student is unpredictble. Every knowladge not coming from the teacher.
The nature of all aspects of teaching
learning of mathematics. For example :
1.
The nature of school mathematics.
2.
The nature of student`s learning mathematics.
3.
The nature of learning resource.
Mainly there are 2 mathematcs.
1.
Formal mathematics.
2.
School mathematics.

According Ebboft Stair, 1995.
1. Mathematics is a seach of pathern
and relasionsip.
2. Mathematics is a problem solving
activity.
3. Mathematics is a investigation
activity.
4. Mathematics is the means of
communication. That means mathematics can substance to communication.
Elementary, Junior, and Senior high school

So in the elementary school, we can analize there is not
an problem solving, investigation, communication it`s not mathematics. In the
fact, in elementary school many student have push with university level
material.
ICEberg of Mathematics. According
Frudental Redustic Mathematics.
Formal

Concrat

At
the base is concrat mathematics mens everything that support, example is table, paper, board, etc.
So in the university level is study about formal mathematics. Model concret
means what is to be visual like use drawing picture. And in the formal
mathematics model concret use symbol “3+2”. Everything not be definited. And
now problem of education is student lost their intuision, and the it`s the
fundamentation problem of mathematics education.
