Reflection 2: Problem Of Mathematics Teaching

Based on a research, the method of teaching, reflect on traditional method of teaching and learning of mathematics. All method that used in teaching and learning depend on the teacher. Teacher influence the student, so student can’t develop without the development of teacher.

Actually, if teacher use traditional method, it means the teacher didn’t believe about student ability. The teacher obligate to deliver the knowledge anywhere and anytime. So, the best way is the teacher facilitate the student with various methods, resources, and equipments, such as webblog and online task. It can develop the student to be active then students can contribute their ideas. The students should start to open their mind and their dimension.

The best teaching and learning also based on culture and religion. But it is should be adapted with situation and compared with various method. The problem is the difficulties to accomodate it with education.

The education problem start from the adult, not from the young. Stimulus-respon method is not eligible anymore. The position of student is unpredictable. From now on the student should changing. It is important to learn the nature of all aspect learning of mathematics, for example: the nature of school mathematics, the nature of student’s learning mathematics, the nature of learning resources, etc.

Mainly, there are two types of mathematics:
FORMAL MATHEMATICS
SCHOOL MATHEMATICS
Axiomatic mathematics
Mathematics is a search of pattern and relationship.
Pure mathematics (University Level, Child doesn’t eligible to absorb formal mathematics)
-  Mathematics is a problem solving activity
-  Mathematics is an investigation activity
-  Mathematics is the means of communication
