Analisis Dialog Internasional 4 - Pendidikan Matematika

Analysis Dialog International 4 - Pendidikan Matematika:

I agree with both Prof. Marsigit and Donald. There are mitigating factors in math education. I want to consider if these factors (teacher competency, school system desederata, and other factors) have just already solved. Then how to apply this constructivism? I just can't figure out, because we know that students have their own knowledge, then how to help to construct their mind if their knowledge are discrepancy, totally discrepancy. if we consider about how long we teach? then I doubt that teachers will successfully help student to construct.

I read many Indonesian articles about PTK (Action Research Class), I just don't have any idea. I think that all the articles / thesis are illogical. How come PTK can solve a problem in a short time? and Is it true? because base on my teaching experiences it will need more than a year to discover a problem in one class. And how long this solution will be sustained? I doubt that. Sorry to say this, i didn't mean to underestimate PTK. I don't know PTK in others country, may be it has a different implementation than here.

About the unizor.com and Natasha. I totally agree with Prof. Marsigit. That math concept is for adult. moreover to Natasha, Oke, I agree you have succeed your students, but I have important question "Which students you refer to? Student with high intelligent? or who?".
I ever made the same tool through mobile learning. My purpose isn't helping student to construct, but help teachers to drill. I mean, because the time teaching is limited, then teachers can use this tool to give student more exercises to do at home or anywhere, while teachers can focus how to help students to construct their own math concepts through their own knowledge in the class. after constructing, teachers give student addition exercise through this tool. And, I still feel this tool ineffective. Unfortunately, I can't give you the link, my server had been blocked due to the contract time.

So, for me technology just used as a tool nor a facilitator. and Math is a science of live and problem solving is a part of live.

Thanks
