Destina Wahyu Winarti; Sitti Maesuri Patahuddin; Tom Lowrie – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2024
This study assessed the effectiveness of a spatialized mathematics intervention on the mathematical performance and spatial visualization skills of students from an underprivileged Indonesian community. Grade 8 students (N = 407) were assigned to one of twelve experimental classes, receiving the spatial mathematics intervention, or one of seven…

Wahidah, Nanda Rahmatul; Johar, Rahmah; Zubainur, Cut Morina – Malikussaleh Journal of Mathematics Learning, 2020
Geometry is one of the topics that students must comprehend in mathematics. However, in reality, the students' ability concerning geometry is relatively low due to their low spatial reasoning ability. The ELPSA framework is one of the solutions to develop students' spatial reasoning abilities. This study aimed to describe students' spatial…

Patahuddin, Sitti; Logan, Tracy; Ramful, Ajay – Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, 2018
This paper attempted to make explicit some of the underlying characteristics of spatial visualisation using the concept of area of composite shapes. By engaging students with metric-free tasks, we identify the type of perceptual and visual/spatial manoeuvres that they deploy in such situations. Interview data collected from three students in Grade…

Risma, Dwi Afrini; Putri, Ratu Ilma Indra; Hartono, Yusuf – International Education Studies, 2013
This research aims at studying on how students develop their spatial visualisation abilities. In this paper, one of five activities in an ongoing classroom activity is discussed. This paper documents students' learning activity in exploring the building blocks. The goal of teaching experiment is to support the development of students' spatial…

Shanty, Nenden Octavarulia; Wijaya, Surya – Indonesian Mathematical Society Journal on Mathematics Education, 2012
We examine how rectangular array model can support students' spatial structuring in learning multiplication. To begin, we define what we mean by spatial structuring as the mental operation of constructing an organization or form for an object or set of objects. For that reason, the eggs problem was chosen as the starting point in which the…

Revina, Shintia; Zulkardi; Darmawijoyo; van Galen, Frans – Indonesian Mathematical Society Journal on Mathematics Education, 2011
Many prior researches found that most of students in grade five tended to have difficulty in fully grasping the concept of volume measurement because they have to build their competence in spatial structuring. The unit of volume "packing" measurement must be integrated and coordinated in three-dimension. On the other hand, it is revealed…
