The purposes of this study was to develop and to validate a model of metacognitive-based teaching and learning of mathematics and to analyze phases how to utilize student metacognitive in solving algebra problems. There are two phases in developing a model of metacognitive-based teaching and learning of mathematics. Phase 1 consists of four stages, namely: a) preliminary study, based on theoretical basis and previous studies; b) model planning, which consists of instrument planning and component of teaching and learning, and also a model book; c) realization; d) model validity, tryout, and refinement. Meanwhile, phase 2 covers the implementation of the developed model and the study into the prosedures of metacognitive treatment. The results show that the development of a model of metacognitive-based teaching and learning is valid, practical, and effective. If the average number of the metacognitive treatment in solving algebra problem namely awareness, cognitive strategy, planning, and.....

The purpose of the research is to study the differences in achievement based on gender in UPSR mathematic trial examinations. The items are grouped into 4 groups which are based on the topics of lesson, Bloom cognitive taxonomy levels, diagrams and person names used. The samples consist of year six students which are selected based on their performance which have been categoried into excellent, medium and low. Each category has 100 girls and 100 boys from 100 primary schools in Terengganu. The instrument used was UPSR trial’s examinations, mathematic paper 1 which contains 40 multiple choice items. The t-test (independent samples t-test)were used to test the hypotheses with significant level at 5 %. The results of the study indicated that the groups of items based on the topics of lesson are significant for all categories of achievers. Items based on Bloom cognitive taxonomy levels for the medium group also found to be significant. All groups of items using person’s names and diagr.....

Kajian kualitatif ini bertujuan menganalisis konsepsi dan amalan pengajaran dalam kalangan guru matematik Sekolah Menengah Atas (SMA) terhadap penyelesaian masalah matematik di Palembang. Seramai enam orang guru matematik SMA di Palembang sebagai responden di pilih dengan teknik persampelan bertujuan. Kaedah temu bual secara separa berstruktur dan pemerhatian digunakan bagi mengumpul data. Pemerhatian terhadap guru di jalankan sebanyak tiga kali sesi pengajaran dan pembelajaran (pdp). Temu bual di jalankan sebelum dan selepas bagi setiap sesi pdp. Data dianalisis menggunakan kaedah analisis kandungan. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa konsepsi guru terhadap penyelesaian masalah masih belum jelas. Konsepsi guru terhadap penyelesaian masalah bertambah baik setiap kali temu bual di jalankan. Kebanyakan guru menyatakan penyelesaian masalah merupakan aplikasi matematik bagi murid. Namun begitu, responden juga menunjukkan perubahan secara berperingkat dengan menyatakan penyelesaian masalah s.....
