Subclaims¶

q2 i? Pre-test results showed students' basic geometry ability was limited to visual skill, with difficulty linking connections between solids. → Nurwijayanti 2019 q2 i? Teachers delivered lessons without visual models, and students tended to memorize formulas rather than understand them. → Nurwijayanti 2019 (2)

q2 · i? · design · r2

Needs analysis in the preliminary stage at the target school. On the verbal skill, students "still struggled to link the connection between geometry", which obstructed building geometry concepts and limited logical process and daily-life application.

"The pre -test result for the basic geometry skills to some students revealed that their ability was limited t o visual skill only."

q2 · i? · design · r3

Observation and interviews in the preliminary stage. Illustrations were merely drawn on the whiteboard, students "tended to memorize the formula, but not to understand it", and media use was limited to models for some subjects only.

"On this stage, we found that the teachers’ activity only supported by text -book. They delivered the lesson without any visual model ."
