Teaching Math was never
easy, teachers usually get into
trouble
teaching
their
students. Some teachers give
more time on solving
problems and sometimes lead
them to discuss one topic per
week
that
was
very
problematic for they have to
take some topic in just one
day that cause the learners to
have a low performance and
with the aid of calculators,
teachers got a partner on
dealing the problems in math
that makes the student solve it
in a second or a minute. The
class will have a fast
discussion as the learner can
easily provide the answer on
their discussion.
Formulated Meaning
One of the major concern of
some teachers was the low
performance of their students
especially in math. Learners
solve problem inaccurately,
tends to compute and get
wrong with the signs only and
have wrong answers and it
was very common. The
tendency if they have this
calculator they can perform
well because of this tool that
gives them accurate answer
and if learners got the correct
answer, performance in class
will improved.

Formulated Meaning
One of the common issue
before was this anxiety in
math, learners before are not
so fun in learning math for
they expect that math was not
an easy subject that they
might got low grades in math.
With the introduction of
calculator at some point
change really came up.
Before learners were so
hesitant to raise their hands
give their answer as to they
are afraid to be wrong and
reprimanded by their teacher
but here comes calculator that
makes them feel that they
have the chance to get perfect
in math as it becomes easy
with the calculator.

Teaching doesnt only

depend on a book then have
an activity with pen and
paper. In math class students
get bored and get sleepy or
noisy when they dont
understand and get the topic if
the teacher relies only to the
book and give a quiz with a
head breaking equation. But
when they are with their
calculators their eyes gets
wide, their hands gets active
and their knees will stop
shaking or bending and ready
to sleep. When they have this
they got involve with the
class, good discussion will
cover the classroom with a
teacher having a discussion
and a students who were
motivated,
active
and
participative.

Learning without an active
participation makes the
learning easy to forget.
Students cannot learn fully
because they just rely their
answer base on the answers
given by the calculators, by
doing this student become
forgetful and lazy. Teacher
who allow students to use
calculator even the student
does not learn the concepts
of the topic fully will make
students become oblivious.

teacher in solving problems
