The Role of Subject Teachers as Counselors in the Teaching Learning Process

Teachers have three roles in carrying out their duties, namely the role of educators, instructors and mentors. The role as an educator is always required to be a role model in his steps both in the school environment and in the community, then the role as a teacher always provides knowledge in accordance with his field in a humanistic manner, while the role as a supervisor is to deliver students to be able to overcome their own problems with encouragement and attention to his personality. Misperception about the task of implementing guidance and counseling services in schools is only done by guidance and counseling teachers, it seems that there needs to be an improvement in the perception of subject teachers. Therefore, to change this, universities as prospective subject teacher printers must provide guidance and counseling courses with explanatory content leading to the role of subject teachers as supervisors

Subject teachers’ perceptions of academic mentoring and counseling services

KEMAMPUAN PEMAHAMAN MATEMATIS SISWA MTS PADA MATERI ALJABAR

Students who tend to only follow directions from the teacher cause learning to be meaningless. This meaningless learning causes students to be unable to master mathematical concepts and principles, so that when given a problem students are unable to work on the problem independently. Therefore, this study aims to describe the mathematical understanding ability of MTs students on algebraic material using descriptive qualitative. The research subjects used were 6 students who were taken using purposive sampling technique. The test instrument is in the form of a description of algebraic material consisting of 7 questions that are adjusted to the indicators of mathematical understanding ability according to the Ministry of National Education and non-test in the form of interviews. The data analysis technique used in this research is data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results of the student's instrument will be analyzed based on indicators of mathematical understanding ability by converting the score into percentage form. The results obtained from 7 indicators of mathematical understanding, 5 of which are already above 50% and 2 others are still below 50%. These results indicate that students' mathematical understanding abilities are still not optimal because students still have difficulty applying their understanding in solving algebraic questions, especially on indicators of building necessary conditions and applying concepts or algorithms in problem solving
