Develop Students’ Mathematical Literacy in Learning

Abstract

Indonesia consistently ranks in the bottom ten in the international PISA (Program for International Student Assessment) assessment results. This PISA shows that the literacy ability, especially the mathematical literacy of Indonesian students, is still a concern. One of the main factors that affect students' knowledge is the ability of teachers to carry out the learning process. Therefore, teachers as learning agents must play an active role in improving students' mathematical literacy skills. The writing methodology used is a literature review which contains a review of mathematical literacy from various library sources. This article discusses mathematical literacy, efforts to develop mathematical literacy through learning and learning media, which are expected to be alternative solutions in developing Indonesian students' mathematical literacy. Further research needs to be done, considering that mathematical literacy skills are very important in everyday life.
