I agree with Mr. Marsigit’s opinion, adult's trust to the younger is very important. The teacher should trust that his/her students will perform their competencies if they get a chance and facilitation. As a teacher, we must facilitate our student to construct their knowledge. We can facilitate our student by make a blog that provide many article that can be used as a student worksheet like this blog. After that, we must trust our student that they will perform their competencies by doing some comment or reflection based on the article.

Character-based education’s aim is to build Indonesian people that have character so that many bad or negative things can be minimized, anticipated, and eliminated. In order to do that, need cooperation from the goverment, the community, educators, and parents. And teachers as the responsible party for the character-based education in schools should always make corrections and improve the quality of teaching.  Before that, we, as a teacher, must be able to define and implement the basic concepts of school mathematics.

To construct their knowledge, student need to have an intuition. So that, mathematics education should be able to facilitate student to develop their intuition. In learning mathematics, students should get meaningful experience so they can develop their intuition that can be used to construct their knowledge. So, we as an educator should be able to be a good facilitator for them in learning process so that they can optimize their own intuition.

In my opinion, IT is a good way to facilitate the learner to improve their experience. For example is this blog, we as Mr. Marsigit’s student, are able to develop ours skill in english mathematics. In this blog we are able to improve our experience, way of thinking, knowledge, and etc without limitation of ideas.

So, we, by this blog, can construct our own english by doing some reflection on many article that provided in this blog.

Mathematics and Language 13

For the younger learner, mathematics should be a concret activity, so their will be able to directly solve many problem in daily life. And then they will be able to understand the pattern not just memorize the formula to solve a problem.

We shouldnot force the younger learner to learn mathematics because if we just give them knowledge and solution for some problem, their creativity will be limited my our egoism. Beside that, without understanding the pattern, the younger learner  couldnt be able to solve another problem even if that problem is similar to the problem before.

Why do you think people's basic math skills are weak?

Article by : Dr. Marsigit,M.A
Reflected by : Agusti Eka Dyah Larasati

Student have different characters, so that they have their own way to learn mathematics. We as a teacher, can not force them to learn mathematics. And for the younger student, mathematics should be a concret activity so the student wont just memorize but able to understand the pattern and then they wiil be able to solve many kind of problem by themselves.

The problem is how we as an educator can make some innovative way of teaching so that the student can learn mathematics happily.
