Discovery learning is a method of inquiry-based instruction, in discovery learning, learners have opportunities to discover facts and relationships for themselves. In Vietnam, this method was approached from many decades ago. The paper will present the results of the investigating mathematics teachers' opinions on the use of discovery learning in teaching geometry in junior schools of Vietnam in the case of instructing topic " trapezoid " .

The Effects of a Discovery Learning Module on Geometry for Improving Students’ Mathematical Reasoning Skills, Communication and Self-Confidence2020 •
The aim of the study was to examine the effectiveness of the Discovery Learning Module on Geometry (D-Geometry Module) in improving reasoning skills, communication, and self-confidence in mathematics among secondary school students. The research design was a quasi-experimental with a non-equivalent control group with pre-test and post-test design, where 128 students were grouped according to gender and the group of the intervention as well as a traditional group. Mathematical reasoning skills, communication, and self-confidence instruments were administered towards the students involved. Two-way MANOVA analysis showed that there was a main effect of the grouping. The finding showed that the integration of learning theories and discovery learning in Geometry could improve students’ reasoning, mathematical communication, and self-confidence. Students’ engagement is more dominant through the Discovery Learning Module rather than traditional learning. Therefore, the D-Geometry module sh...

The Effect of Using Discovery Learning-Based Mathematics Learning Modules on Students' Interest in Learning Mathematics2023 •
The purpose of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of the discovery learning-based mathematics learning module in terms of students' interest in learning mathematics. This type of research is quasi-experimental. The research design used was the One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The research was conducted in class V SDN Ngijo 02 Gunungpati District, Semarang City. The number of students in the class is 28 students. The instrument used in the study was a questionnaire of interest in learning mathematics. Data analysis techniques used parametric statistical tests t-test and N-Gain. The statistical test results showed that the significance value was 0.00, meaning that the average score of students' learning interest after using the discovery learning model-based mathematics learning module was higher than the average score of students' learning interest before using the discovery learning model-based mathematics learning module. The average interest in learning mathematics in class V at SDN Ngijo 02 experienced an n-gain increase of 0.45 with the "medium" criterion. Thus, it can be concluded that the use of discovery learning model-based mathematics learning modules in learning has proven to be effective in increasing interest in learning mathematics for fifth-grade students at SDN Ngijo 02.

Research has documented the prevalence of lessons characterised by homework check, followed by teacher lecture and demonstration, followed in turn, by learner practice sequence of classroom instructional activities in our classrooms. This sequence of classroom activities does not allow for the development of sound mathematics practices and mathematical proficiency. Meanwhile, curriculum reforms in South Africa as well as in other parts of the world recommend classroom activities where teachers create opportunities for, listen to and extend learners. This paper presents a sequence of activities to be used in the teaching of geometry and surface areas of solid shapes in a grade 8 classroom. The sequence portrays the teaching of these concepts as an investigative rather than instructive process.

Exploration of Students’ Understanding of Geometry ConceptsThis article contains an exploration of conceptual understanding in geometry lectures in the Elementary School Teacher Education Study Program, Cokroaminoto Palopo University, Odd Semester, Academic Year 2020/2021. This research was conducted through a qualitative approach with the aim of explaining the details of the relationship between concepts in detail and recommending appropriate learning in problem solving. Data were collected using observation, documentation, and written tests. The three techniques are elaborated with the aim of analyzing the concepts and problem-solving patterns of the students' final semester test results. The results of the study explain several findings, namely, Teaching geometry should begin with the process of identifying the important concepts that build up a particular problem. These concepts are then analyzed and linked to one another to form a network. The concept network is then represented in an image/visual display. Through this visual displ...

Application of Discovery Learning Method in Mathematical Proof of Students in Trigonometry2020 •
Trigonometry is a part of mathematics in learning that is related to angles. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the application of discovery learning methods in students' mathematical proof ability on trigonometry. The research method used in this study is quasi-experimental. The population in this study was the second semester of 2016/2017. The sample was 66 people who were determined by purposive sampling. The instrument used in this study was a mathematically proof ability test. Analysis of the data used is the t-test. The results of this study are (1) based on an average score of mathematical proof ability The student's mathematical proof ability in applying the Discovery Learning Method to trigonometry is not higher than the mathematical proof ability of students who do not use the discovery method (2) there is no significant influence in the application of learning methods Discovery in students' mathematical proofs on trigonometry.

The Influence of Discovery Learning Method and Motivation to Result of Student Learning Mathematics2017 •
The purpose of this research is to know (1) Influence of discovery learning method to student learning result of mathematics, (2) Influence of motivation to result of student learning of mathematics, (3) Interaction between discovery learning method with motivation learn in influencing student learning result of mathematics. The population of this research is the students of class V State Elementary School 18 of Banda Aceh. The sample in this study was chosen by purposive sampling class as much as two classes. The experimental class is treated by discovery learning method and control class is treated with expository learning method. Instrument used consists of test results of mathematics learning in the form of a description of 10 questions that have been declared valid and reliable. Data analysis was performed using two-way ANAVA. From the results of this study obtained the average learning outcomes taught discovery learning method that is 81.23 while the average learning outcomes ...

An Analysis of a Geometry Learning Process: The Case of Proving Area FormulasGeometry is one of the courses in the curriculum for students of prospective mathematics teachers that can develop deductive thinking ability. The question is, how is the learning and teaching process of the geometry course implemented so as to develop this deductive thinking ability? This research, therefore, aims to investigate the learning and teaching process of a geometry course for prospective mathematics teachers. For reaching these aims, this qualitative study was conducted through observations on the learning process and the written test of a geometry course, for the case of area formulas, involving 56 students of mathematics education program. The results revealed that the learning process is implemented by emphasizing the use of the deductive approach, and from the written test we found various proof strategies in proving an area formula. We conclude that the learning and teaching process of the geometry course has influenced the development of student deductive thinking.
