Elementary teachers’ knowledge on fraction multiplication: An anthropological theory of the didactic approach

Zetra Hainul Putra

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate Indonesian in-service elementary teachers’ knowledge on fraction by their responses to contextual problems on multiplication of a fraction by a whole number (O1) and multiplication of a fraction by a fraction (O2). Fifty Indonesian in-service elementary teachers from Elementary School for Teacher Education study program, University of Riau, participated in this research in 2015. This research is based on anthropological theory of the didactic (ATD), in particular praxeology, as a framework to analyse the data. The result showed that only 22% of Indonesian in-service elementary teachers have a satisfactory relation to O1 and 64% of them have succeeded on the problems related to O2.
