ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to produce a studying trajectory that can help students learn the
fractions multiplication by tofu cutting context in the class V. The method used in this study was design
research design which involved 32 students of class V in Elementary School 55 Pagaralam with
suspected learning trajectory or Hypothetical Learning Trajectory (HLT) was then developed and
implemented a set of activities to gain a better understanding of how to develop an understanding of
material fractions multiplication through three stages: preliminary design, teaching experiment, and
retrospective analysis. The study involved six students in the first cycle and 32 students in second cycle.
The research which was done produced learning trajectory that consists of a series of learning process
in four activities. Each activity used video of tofu cuts, mica plastic, and creativity of the students. The
results showed that by using mica in the context of cutting out can assist students in learning
multiplication of fractions and can solve problems related to fractional multiplication of daily life.
INTRODUCTION
METHOD
This study used research methods of instructional design (research design) that is an appropriate
way to answer questions of researchers and achieving the objectives of the study. According to Bakker
(2004), the main purpose of research design is to develop theories together with teaching materials.
This things show that there are some recurring cycle of a thought experiment (thought experiment)
toward the learning experiment (intruction experiment). In every cycle, anticipation is done by thought
experiment to imagine how the proposed learning activities can be used in class, and that all students
can learn as they participate in (Bustang, Zulkardi, Darmawijoyo, Dolk, and Van Eerde, 2013).
Gravemeijer and Cobb (2006: 19-43) state that there are three stages in the implementation of the
research design. The first stage: preparing for the Experiment/Preliminary Design. At this stage, a
literature review on learning materials that FPB, PMRI approach, and the analysis of the mathematics
curriculum materials FPB material. After that, setting up an alleged strategy and thinking of students in
the learning process. The next will be designing hypothetical learning trajectory (HLT). At this stage
will be designed learning trajectory and hypothetical learning trajectory (HLT). According to Simon
(1995), HLT consists of three components: learning goals that define the direction, learning activities,
and the hypothesis of learning to predict the process of how the mind and students' understanding
develops within the context of the activities.
The second phase: the design of experiments that is teaching experiment. In the teaching
experiment, HLT which has been tested at the pilot experiment phase and has been fixed then tested
back on the class to the subject of research who is class of IV A consisting of 22 students. Math teacher
acts as the model teacher (teacher) and the researchers conducted observations of learning activities.
The third stage: a retrospective analysis. Data obtained from experimental teaching phase is
analyzed and the analysis results are used to plan activities and develop a learning activity design on
the next. The analysis aims to explain how students can generalize from learning activities such as
observing how students construct puzzles to understand the concept of the FPB. The aim of the
retrospective analysis in general is to develop the Local Instructional Theory (LIT). At this stage, HLT
compared with actual student learning, the results are used to answer the problem formulation.
CONCLUSION
Based on the results and discussion which had been described in the previous chapter, it can be
concluded that:
Hypothetical Learning trajectory which was applied in this research had been Learning
Trajectory (Learning Trajectory) which can improve students' understanding of learning material
multiplication in multiplication of fractions and also helping students to discover and understand the
concept of fractional multiplication. The things in the learning trajectory in this study that is able to
support the students understanding in multiplication learning about fractional multiplication materials
are:
Experience in learning which was meaningful and fun by drawing on mica plastic. This learning
activity supported students understanding about fractional multiplication which is the initial concept of
multiplication learning in fractional multiplication material.
a. Students are able to understand the multiplication of fractions with the activity that has been
given to the LAS.
b. Fractional multiplication problems which were given to the students is a real experience that is
often found in the students' daily lives.
Thus, the learning trajectory which had been implemented in this study is one of a positive
contribution to the development of the Local Instructional Theory (LIT) in multiplication learning of
fractional multiplication material.
