CRAFTING COMPETENCE: ADVANCING MATHEMATICAL ABSTRACTION SKILLS THROUGH ORIENTED LEARNING DEVICES AND MODEL ELICITING ACTIVITIES FOR SMK STUDENTS
Abstract
This research focuses on the development and implementation of oriented learning devices using Model Eliciting Activities (MEAs) to enhance the mathematical abstraction skills of students in Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan (SMK), or Vocational High Schools. The study involves the design, implementation, and evaluation of instructional materials that leverage MEAs to engage students in real-world problem-solving scenarios. Through a series of structured activities, students are guided to formulate and refine mathematical models, fostering improved abstraction abilities. The research aims to assess the effectiveness of this pedagogical approach in enhancing students' mathematical abstraction skills and its potential implications for vocational education.
