Ability Reasoning Mathematical Students on Solving Problem

This paper discusses challenges faced by students​ in developing the ability to reason mathematically. This paper researches factors that cause difficulty and suggests​ potential solutions for increasing education in mathematics in Indonesia. Problem reasoning mathematics for students is sourced from various factors like emphasis system education in learning memorisation, limitations source power, and fear of failure. By promoting critical thinking skills, solving problems, and providing adequate support​ for students and lecturers, Indonesia can make an effort to increase the ability to reason mathematics among​ students and improve academic performance overall.

Developing Teaching Procedure based on Communicative Language Teaching Principles to Teach Speaking

Teaching procedure can be developed to achieve a better result, which is to improve students’ speaking skill. This research aims to find out whether the developed teaching procedure based on Communicative Language Teaching principles can improve students’ speaking ability. This is a quasi-experimental research design that conducts a quantitative method with 30 students as the subjects. The students were tested through the speaking test before and after the treatment. The finding shows that there is a significant increase between the pre-test and post-test. The t-value, which is 11.221 is higher than the t-table, which is 2.045. Or, the sig (2-tailed) is 0.000, which is lower than 0.05. Therefore, it can be concluded that the developed teaching procedure based on CLT principles can improve students’ speaking ability.
