Mathematical Communication Ability in SAVI Learning Model with Mathematics Board Game in terms of Mathematical Resilience

Abstract

This study aims to: examine the quality of SAVI learning model implementation with board game on mathematical communication skills, analyze the effect of mathematical resilience on mathematical communication skills, describe mathematical communication skills in terms of mathematical resilience. This study used a mixed method of sequential explanatory type. The population of this research is all seventh grade students of SMPIT Nidaul Hikmah Salatiga. The results showed that the implementation of the SAVI learning model with a quality math board game on mathematical communication skills. Students' mathematical resilience has a positive effect on students' mathematical communication skills. Students with high mathematical resilience fulfill all indicators of mathematical communication. Medium resilience students met indicators 2 and 3, needed guidance for indicators 1 and 4, not yet met indicator 5. Low resilience students are only able to achieve indicators 1 and 4 with guidance. A special case, a student with high resilience and a habitual background of studying for Olympiads showed significant differences between verbal and written mathematical communication.
