Mathematics Learning Delivery Methods

Mathematics is a field of study for this is still considered the scourge of most students, whether it's from the primary schools, junior high schools, senior high schools, and even universities. no doubt that mathematics has become one of the lessons are more difficult than other subjects. There are several reasons that push students' thinking that mathematics is a difficult subject, one of which is the notion that mathematics is a collection of formulas that are difficult memorized, mathematics is not just rely on logic alone, but the precision in the work. fact that such things can be minimized by teachers, so students are not particularly think that mathematics is a difficult subject, one solution is the method of delivery. delivery of a material having an important role in the learning. submission of a rigid, will affect students' interest in learning to follow, otherwise delivery will be flexible and attractive to students interested to follow it. Interest is what makes the students become more interested in following lessons.
There is some mathematical way of delivering learning materials, such as:
a.    interaction between teachers and students
interaction that goes on here is between teacher and student. in this case there are several methods that can be used, such as the lecture method, the teacher conveys the material in front of their students, then there is a method of discussion, in which the teacher role here is as tutors and students to participate actively in the learning so that students can add their experience in receiving a subject matter. other than that students could also be given the material by using appropriate instructional media, so that students will be more challenged and interested in learning the material being taught.
b.    student interaction and material
interaction here means that students interact directly with the material being taught. students in this regard is expected to discover a new concept through the material provided by teachers, with a concrete example is given in accordance with the material. the material here could be the formula associated with the daily life of students, so students can understand the concept of a formula or formulas are easily
with both of these methods, students are expected to kana more interested in mathematics and the learning environment will foster motivation to learn mathematics in the patterns of thought, so there is no longer thought that mathematics is a difficult lesson, but learning is fun.
