Learning Obstacle: Students' Numeracy Learning in Arithmetic Materials for the Design Needs of an Al-Qur'an-Based E-Module
Keywords:
Learning Obstacle, Numeracy Skills, Arithmetic Sequences and Series, E-module, Al-Qur'an, Didactical Design ResearchAbstract
This research is motivated by the low numeracy skills of students in the arithmetic sequence and series material, which is one of the important indicators in mathematical literacy. The aim of this research is to identify learning obstacles in students' understanding of arithmetic sequence and series concepts as a basis for developing an Al-Qur'an-based e-module. The method used is Didactical Design Research (DDR) with prospective analysis, metapedadidactic, and retrospective stages. The results showed that students experienced difficulties in understanding the concept of number operations, the relationships between concepts, and their application in everyday life. The Al-Qur'an-based e-module is designed to integrate spiritual values into mathematics learning, thus expected to increase motivation and holistic conceptual understanding. The implication of this research is the need for developing contextual learning media that supports the improvement of numeracy while simultaneously forming the religious character of students.References
