The Use of Problem Based Learning-Based Electronic Student Worksheets (E-LKPD) as an Effort to Improve Elementary School Student Mathematical Literacy

Abstract

The rapid development of the 21st century must be followed by excellent human resources (HR) so that people can adapt and even contribute to this development. One of the essential skills in building the 21st century is mathematical literacy. Knowing the importance of mathematical literacy, the development of this competence in the learning process must also be maximized. The government has been emphasizing building excellent and competent generations according to the needs of the 21st century through the learning program policy. The integration of mathematical literacy into learning activities seems to have been implemented, although it is not optimally implemented yet. Communication, technology, and values are three important things that must be considered by educators in attempting to develop student literacy skills. The purpose of this study is to describe the importance of using Problem Based Learning (PBL)-based E-LKPD for learning so that in the implementation of this research, the study literature method will be used by collecting the reference sources relevant to the topic from various scientific researches. The results showed that PBL-based E-LKPD was considered capable to be one of the solutions in the attempt of developing students’ mathematical literacy, as well as in the literature aspect, this PBL-based E-LKPD is highly supportive to be applied to a wider learning scale.
