CONTEXTUAL TEACHING AND LEARNING APPROACH (CTL) IN MATHEMATICS TO DEVELOP ADVERSITY QUOTIENT (AQ)

Abstrak / Ringkasan

CTL approach is a learning process that involves students in important activities that help students associate academic learning with real-life context. There are seven components in the CTL approach, namely: 1) contructivism, 2) inquiri, 3) questioning, 4) learning community, 5) modelling, 6) reflection, and 7) authentic assessment. It is important to know that generally students have difficulties in learning mathematics, the difference is only in levels of difficulty. In this case, potential AQ is truly needed in learning mathematics. AQ is an individual's ability to survive in the face of all sorts of trouble to find a way out, to solve various problems, reduce barriers and obstacles by changing the way of thinking and attitude towards the difficulties faced. There are four dimensions of AQ: control, ownership, range, and endurance. Based on the level of AQ, there are three types of student groups, namely: quitter, campersdan climbers. This paper studied the theory of mathematics learning, contextual teaching and learning approach (CTL), and adversity quotient (AQ).

Keywords: Learning math, contextual teaching and learning approach (CTL), and adversity quotient (AQ).
