The Effect of Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) Approach Assisted by Traditional Game of Congklak on Higher Order Thinking Ability and Math Anxiety of Junior High School Students and Math Anxiety of Junior High School Students
Abstract
This study aims to describe whether or not there is an effect of the Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) approach assisted by the traditional game of congklak in learning mathematics on higher order thinking skills and math anxiety of students. The type of research used is quasi experimental research with a quantitative approach. The population in this study were all VIII grade students at one of the State Junior High Schools in Sleman Regency in the 2024/2025 school year. The research sample was taken through purposive sampling technique with a sample size of 64 students consisting of two classes. The instruments used to collect data were observation sheet of learning implementation, pretest and posttest of higher order thinking ability, and math anxiety questionnaire. The questions of higher order thinking skills and math anxiety questionnaire were declared valid by two expert lecturers. Data analysis techniques used were descriptive statistics and inferential statistics (confidence interval estimation using 95% confidence level). The test statistic used in this research is Hotelling's T2 test to determine the difference in the average vector for two independent samples, then continued with the t test for each research variable. The results showed that there was an effect of Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) approach assisted by traditional game of congklak on higher order thinking ability and math anxiety of junior high school students.
