Teaching Methods Used In Teaching Mathematics


A.      INTRODUCTION
Factors that affect the learning process is the educational facility, teaching media, teaching methods, teaching aids, psicological aspect, the context of teaching learning (culture), syllabi, and technologi. Not only syllabi but also curriculum, lesson plan, students work sheets, assessment, teaching learning resources have affect in learning process. The purpose of presenting a kinds of teaching methods and their application in the learning of mathematics is that teachers have a broad knowledge of the methods of learning and have the skills to implement, especially in mathematics learning.
B.       DISCUSSION
From some factors that affect teaching learning  is a teaching learning, a method is the way, approach, or process to convey information, while learning is a process of interaction between students and teachers with learning resources, so the teaching methods  is a way or process to convey information on teachers and students with manner that have been designed in the learning process. Teaching methods that will be used is:
1.      Lecture method
2.      Expository method
3.      Memorized the training methods
4.      Methods of practical exercises
5.      Question Methods
6.      Method of demonstration
7.      Discussion method
8.      Methods of field activities
9.      Laboratory methods
10.  Game method
11.  Methods of the field trip
12.  Method of the invention
13.  Methods inkuri
14.  Problem-solving methods
15.  Method of administration tasks
16.  Methods of project
Of some of the above methods most teachers use the lecture method and expository method on the grounds that method in a sense more easily in comparison with other methods. However, both methods will only make the students become passive because this method is the teachers who play an active role while the students are just a listener. A good teaching methods in mathematics such as methods of the invention  and discussion methods. By the method of the invention the students will try to think to find problems, as well as students will learn to solve them, in this method only acts as a mentor teacher learning. While the method of discussion students will learn how   to cooperate in resolving problems between groups with only groups, students should be able to learn to accept and respect others' opinions. Implication to Method and Model of TEACHING is LEARNING Processes The learner then begins to "articulate assumptions" about Their current mental models and how this new information fits Their thinking currently, the learner revises his or her assumptions to the make the fit better with the new situation, the learner begins to put into practice the new assumptions.
C.       CONCLUSION
Learning method is a way or processes to deliver information on teachers and students with manner  that have been designed in the learning process. Poor teaching methods iis method lectures and expository method. While a good learning method is a Method of the invention and discussion methods.
