    The ability of thinking logically needs to be developed due to the fact that it is an essential basic skill. Logical thinking affects that giving reason must be true, and that a sequence of assumptions is based on the high truth value. Mathematics is a subject that functions to train students to think logically. The understanding of logic will help students to arrange the proof that support through process to finally arrive at a conclusion. Currently, metacognition is viewed as an essential element of learning. It refers to someone knowledge of processes and the result itself or of that connected to the process. Metacognition is needed when student solves the task that needs argumentation and logical understanding. In order to help student to skillful think logically, mathematics learning must be designed as such so that the condition will raise the skill of metacognitive acts.

    Hidden Curriculum in Promoting Self-Regulated Learners for Teachers

    Get PDF
    Teachers and students in general are surrounded by many things and information when they are interacting with people on campus or off campus. Therefore they might absorb many lessons that are not included formally in the formal course of study on campus. Those aspects that they absorb in the long run somehow may contribute to their performance in terms of their achievements, skills or on their character. What they absorbed might be positive or negative, depends on the environment that the students as well as the teachers have on campus. The situation might be so diverse in terms of culture, languages, races, social status etc. It means that the student as well as the teachers must realize the importance of becoming self regulated learners, that they must learn how and what to learn or what to teach related to the issue of hidden curriculum. Very often the students as well as the teachers did not realize that when they interact with one another there must be certain message that they convey to one another that they must take the advantage of being interactive is a very important momentum to be used appropriately. It is important that the interaction should be conducted intentionally in order for them to learn from the hidden curriculum. This means that they need to be sensitive in noticing a good momentum to learn different aspects so as to act to change what could be changed in the future
