Mathematical practice in textbooks analysis: Praxeological reference models, the case of proportion

We present a new method in textbook analysis, based on so-called praxeological reference models focused on specific content at task level. This method implies that the mathematical contents of a textbook (or textbook part) is analyzed in terms of the tasks and techniques which are exposed to or demanded from readers; this can then be interpreted and complemented by a discussion of the discursive and theoretical level of the text. The praxeological reference model is formed by the analyst to categorize various elements of the text, in particular the tasks and techniques which it explains or requires from readers. We demonstrate the methodological features of this approach by analyzing examples and exercises in three Indonesian textbooks, focusing on the chapters dealing with arithmetic proportion (defined theoretically by the model). We also illustrate how this rigorous analysis can be used to provide a quantitative “profile” of textbooks within a topic.

THE REPRESENTATION OF GENDER IDEOLOGY IN INDONESIAN TEXTBOOKS

This research seeks to examine issues related to the representation of gender ideology in learning topics entailed in Indonesian textbooks. This research is a qualitative research employing gender theory and van Djik’s model of discourse analysis. The data encompassed topics discovered in units of texts in the Indonesian textbooks for Elementary, Junior High, and High School level, particularly in the components of the learning materials that include explanation (theoretical), examples, exercises, and tasks both in the language aspect as well as the literary work. 36 textbooks were successfully collected as the main data in which 3 books were obtained from each class for each level. Documentation was employed as the main data collection technique and the researcher played a role as the main instrument. The data were analyzed by using van Djik’s model of critical discourse analysis as well as the perspective of gender analysis. The results of the study on the gender representation in the textbooks were manifested in three forms, namely, (1) gender identity, (2) gender role, and (3) gender status. With regard to those three components, some points are worth-highlighting: (1) there are dichotomous differences between men and women, (2) there are some misinterpretations of marginalization particularly of women, and (3) gender polarization is also evident. Such conditions were resulted from the authors’ mental awareness, for they are influenced by the discourse in the society where they live in which discrimination towards women and domination of men are prevalent and continuously produced.

An Analysis of Singaporean versus Indonesian Textbooks Based on Trigonometry Content

Background:Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development [OECD] (2016) released the results of PISA 2015 and reported that the students’ performance in Mathematics of Singapore and Indonesia had significant differences. There is a strong relationship between the textbook used and the mathematics performance of the students. If textbooks differ, students will get different opportunity to learn and the opportunity to learn influences students’ achievement (performance).Material and methods:Material : Singaporean and Indonesian Mathematics Textbooks Methods: Qualitative study regarding horizontal and vertical analysisResults:This study found Singaporean textbooks put more emphasis on all the concepts of trigonometry on right-triangle and further trigonometry (sine/cosine rules) while Indonesian textbook provided more discussion on angle and its concepts, trigonometry on right-triangle, and graph function of trigonometry (which is a lot more difficult than sine/cosine rules. In addition, Singaporean textbook provided more mathematical questions requiring higher cognitive demand levels while Indonesian textbook provided more questions requiring lower levels.Conclusions:The difference of textbooks design (mathematics topics and cognitive demand level) is a factor which influences student’s mathematics performance in Singapore and Indonesia

Linking pre-service teachers’ questioning and students’ strategies in solving contextual problems: A case study in Indonesia and the Netherlands

IntroductionThere is now a widespread body of knowledge that identifies the potential and challenges of using contextual problems to advance children's learning of mathematics. Some studies have demonstrated that context plays a significant role as a starting point of learning for students because it allows students to start with informal strategies and offers opportunities for students to solve the problems at different levels of formality (Freudenthal, 1983, 1991; Gravemeijer & Doorman, 1999; van den Heuvel-Panhuizen, 1996, 2000; van den Heuvel-Panhuizen & Wijers, 2005). This was also reported in earlier studies from Indonesia where the use of contextual problems supported students to develop mathematical understandings (Dolk, Widjaja, Zonneveld, & Fauzan, 2010; Sembiring, Hadi, & Dolk, 2008; Widjaja, Dolk, & Fauzan, 2010). However, existing studies have also revealed the challenges of incorporating contextual problems into students' learning for two main reasons. Firstly, students bring different experiences and prior knowledge to the classroom. This may influence the students' interpretations of the contextual problem and lead them to solve the problem in an inappropriate way (Boaler, 1993; Carraher & Schliemann, 2002; Widjaja, 2008, 2013; Wijaya, van den Heuvel-Panhuizen & Doorman, 2015). Secondly, the way students solve contextual problems depends on how the students have been taught (van den Heuvel-Panhuizen, 2005).Since 2000 a movement called 'Pendidikan Matematika Realistik Indonesia ' (PMRI) was adapted and implemented in Indonesia. This was inspired by Realistic Mathematics Education (RME) which was developed in the Netherlands (Freudenthal, 1983, 1991; Sembiring, Hadi, & Dolk, 2008; Sembiring, Hoogland, & Dolk, 2010). PMRI advocates the teaching of mathematics which moves away from teaching based on symbolic manipulation. Studies incorporating the use of contextual problems in Indonesian classrooms confirm this assertion (Widjaja, Dolk, & Fauzan, 2010; Dolk, Widjaja, Zonneveld, & Fauzan, 2010). Nevertheless, the bottom up approach in the PMRI movement implies that these changes are not mandated. As a result the PMRI movement has not been implemented nationally and is not reflected in Indonesian national curriculum. To date there are still limited opportunities for students to engage in making sense of mathematics through contexts in Indonesian textbooks (Fauzan, Plomp & Gravemeijer, 2013; Wijaya, 2015; Zulkardi, 2002). Similarly, solving contextual problems in multiple ways is another approach which is not common in Indonesia. Many concepts in mathematics are introduced without context, nor do they enable students to explore multiple meanings of the concept. For instance, fractions are only introduced as parts of a whole. Fractions as quotients and ratios are excluded. This is not in line with the RME principles where fractions are introduced through various real-life contexts such as fair sharing, measurements and money so as to enable students to understand the relationship between all the concepts involving fractions. According to RME principles, students are expected to learn fractions in informal ways using their investigations before moving on to more abstract and formal mathematics (van den Heuvel-Panhuizen & Wijers, 2005).This case study is based on teaching experiments conducted by volunteer Indonesian and Dutch pre-service teachers using contextual problems on fractions with Grade 4 children in Indonesia and the Netherlands. The study aims to examine how pre-service teachers' questioning influence students' reasoning in solving contextual problems with fractions. Whilst a number of cross-national studies on the topic of fractions have been documented (Alajmi, 2012; Cai & Wang, 2006; Moseley, Okamoto, & Ishida, 2007; Mosvold, 2008; Son & Senk, 2010; Yim, 2010), to date there is no study where pre-service teachers examine their own questioning as a way to engage students when solving contextual problems about fractions. …

An Indonesian concatenative speech synthesis system

An Indonesian concatenative speech synthesis system was developed that can (1) differentiate between the pronunciation of [e] and [@] (XSAMPA) by utilizing a pronunciation dictionary and pronunciation rules and (2) automatically create derived words that are then inserted into the pronunciation dictionary, which is used in converting text into phonemes. Speech data were recorded from a female native Indonesian speaker. Phrases included proper nouns and text samples from Indonesian textbooks, newspaper articles, and TV scripts, which covered almost all possible Indonesian syllables. There were 4,490 phrases lasting a total of 5.1 hours. The transcription was constructed considering pauses during narration. A forced alignment technique was used to obtain the phoneme boundary of the speech, and each phoneme and its acoustic/linguistic features were added to a database. In the synthesis step, an input text was converted into phonemes. An appropriate segment sequence, which has features similar to the phonemes...

The development of character values and cultural values is a long process start- ing from the initial incoming students to completion of an educational unit. In fact, the pro- cess starts from the kindergarten continues to elementary school and lasted at least until the 9th grade or last grade of junior high school. The development process of character and cultural values carried by each subject, and in each curricular and extracurricular activities, through all subjects, personal development, and education unit. This study seeks to describe the profile of Indonesian subjects teaching materials in the current elementary school according to teachers and students opinions and the needs of students and teach- ers towards Indonesian subjects thematic teaching materials which contains character and cultural values. Research and development is applied to the field of education . The subjects of research were elementary school students and elementary schools teachers in Ungaran and Semarang. 27 people (29 %) of teachers declared that there are Indonesian textbooks were still least helpful in teaching. 8 people (9 %) of teachers stated that the Indonesian textbooks were incomplete. 85 people (91 %) of teachers want the Indonesian textbook to be more complete, making it easier for teachers to teach.

Opportunity-to-learn context-based tasks provided by mathematics textbooks

Based on the findings of an error analysis revealing that Indonesian ninth- and tenth-graders had difficulties in solving context-based tasks, we investigated the opportunity-to-learn offered by Indonesian textbooks for solving context-based mathematics tasks and the relation of this opportunity-to-learn to students’ difficulties in solving these tasks. An analysis framework was developed to investigate the characteristics of tasks in textbooks from four perspectives: the type of context used in tasks, the purpose of context-based tasks, the type of information provided in tasks, and the type of cognitive demands of tasks. With this framework, three Indonesian mathematics textbooks were analyzed. Our analysis showed that only about 10 % of the tasks in the textbooks are context-based tasks. Moreover, at least 85 % of these tasks provide exactly the information needed to solve them and do not leave room for students to select relevant information by themselves. Furthermore, of the context-based tasks, 45 % are reproduction tasks requiring performing routine mathematical procedures, 53 % are connection tasks requiring linking different mathematical curriculum strands, and only 2 % are reflection tasks, which are considered as tasks with the highest level of cognitive demand. A linkage between the findings of the error analysis and the textbook analysis suggests that the lacking opportunity-to-learn in Indonesian mathematics textbooks may cause Indonesian students’ difficulties in solving context-based tasks. Based on the results of this study, recommendations are given for improving the opportunities-to-learn to solve context-based tasks as well as for doing further research on this topic.

고등 교육을 위한 인도네시아어 반복법 연구

Despite the importance of reduplication in Indonesian grammar, domestic researchers have neglected investigating this. In Indonesian grammar textbooks for higher education, the reduplication phenomena have typically been discussed simply and shortly. This is one reason why domestic university students who are studying Indonesian are not familiar with its reduplicated linguistic forms. Thus, this paper will examine and describe Indonesian reduplication in an effort to address this issue using a representational theory that was suggested by Raimy (2000). In addition, a rhythmic reduplication, one of three reduplication types in Indonesian, will be studied especially on its vowel/consonant changes. From this research, both lecturers and students will be able to have a comprehensive knowledge on the Indonesian reduplication.

Visible Boys, Invisible Girls: The Representation of Gender in Learn English with Tito (A Critical Discourse Analysis of English Language Textbooks for Primary School)

ABSTRACT: This study, entitled “Visible Boys, Invisible Girls: The Representation of Gender in Learn English with Tito (A Critical Discourse Analysis of English Language Textbooks for Primary School)”, is aimed at revealing the representation of gender in a series of Indonesian primary school English textbooks which are published by PT. Mutiara Permata Bangsa, Yogyakarta in 2007. The study is also aimed at gaining information about the editor’s perspective upon the issue and investigating the underlying ideology behind the representation. This research employs the framework of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA). The main data are six textbooks for primary school. This study also conduts an inteview with the book editor. The text analysis utilizes transitivity system of Halliday which focuses on investigating Participants, Processes, and Circumstances of a clause. It is supported by lexical choise analysis of the text and a qualitative analysis of the interview. The findings show that the books favor males than females. Male characters are more visible in that they occur dominantly and they appear to hold more important roles of Participant. In terms of Gender stereotyping, males are perpetually associated with a more well-paid jobs i.e. ‘doctor’ and ‘pilot’ for male characters and ‘teacher’ for females’. Meanwhile, females are more likely valued by their physical appearance and personality i.e. ‘slim’, ‘fair-skinned’, ‘beautiful’, ‘kind’, and diligent’. At the end of the research, the editor admitted the lack of concern on the issue of gender in composing her textbooks. These seem to indicate male domination as the underlying ideology behind the representation.

This paper attempts to classify the more commonly used forms other than the standard terms neatly presented in any Indonesian language textbook.

A New Indonesian Textbook from Australia

Elementary instruction in modern foreign languages at the university level in the United States is very different now from what it was before the second world war when, despite the pioneering contributions to teaching the spoken language by figures like Henry Sweet, Otto Jespersen, and Michael West, foreign language instruction still consisted largely of grammar and translation to prepare the student to study the literature of the language and the civilization it reflected. Yet except for the specialist it was the unusual student who from this training learned a foreign language well enough to use it effectively even in reading.
