Problem-Solving Skill based on Self-Directed Learning Perspective with the Implementation of Problem-based Learning Assisted by Sie Sandra

Abstract

This research described the problem-solving skill seen from learning style and local cultural appreciation of ethnomathematics nuanced problem-based learning assisted by Sie Sandra. The applied method was the qualitative method with 36 learners of X MIPA 1 of Public High School 2 Grabag as the research subjects in the academic year 2021/2022. The researchers collected the data with a self-directed learning questionnaire, problem-solving skill test, and interview. The researchers analyzed the data descriptively by reducing, displaying, and triangulating the data. The results showed that (1) learners with high self-directed learning and high local culture appreciation could reach high and moderate mathematics problem-solving skills; (2) learners with moderate self-directed learning and moderate local culture appreciation could reach high, moderate, and low mathematics problem-solving skill; (3) learners with low self-directed learning and problem-solving skill had moderate and low problem-solving skills.
