Abstract
Understanding combinatorics is challenging for students in particular, they struggle with determining when and how to implement combinations. We present an activity using ideas from the role playing of “takraw teams” to help student understand the concept of combinations to solve the problem in real life. This study aims to produce a learning trajectory using the role playing of “takraw teams” activity. Therefore, the design research was chosen to meet the research aims and to give in formulating and developing local instructional theory in learning combinations. Learning trajectory designed in the early phases and tested on 6 tenth-grade students in SMA 15 Palembang. The results showed that the activity of takraw teams …show more content…
Teachers may select appropriate learning activities as the basis to stimulate students to think and act when constructing the mathematics. Gravemeijer (2004) stated that the HLT consists of three components, namely (1) the purpose of providing sufficient details to allow the work to be reproduced, mathematics learning for students, (2) learning activities and devices or media are used in the learning process, and (3) a conjecture of understanding the process of learning and students’ strategies that arise and thrive during class’ learning
