The Perceptions of Students and Teachers About The Use of Edutainment Instructional Media in Mathematics Learning

摘要

The purpose of this study was to describe the perception of students and teachers about the use of edutainment instructional media in mathematics learning. This study employed 223 students of junior high schools and 34 mathematics teachers. The data for this study were collected using a survey comprising questions in the research model. The results showed that the majority of students had positive perceptions to use edutainment instructional media in mathematics learning and they prefer games as edutainment instructional media rather than other types. Moreover, majority teachers had positive perceptions, but some others believed that edutainment instructional media can not facilitate mathematics learning better than the teacher.
