Summary: | Problem solving in Mathematics is one of the key elements in Mathematics to enhance students’ ability to face the real-life situation. It is not solely about solving problem but it is combination of few mathematics concepts and skills. However, students face difficulty in Mathematics word problem solving and finds it as boring task. Therefore, this study is to investigate the achievement level of Mathematics problem solving among level 2 primary school students and relates the achievement level with the ‘World’s New Famous House’ technique and Miracle Comic through quantitative research with 45 students level 2 primary students. Instruments used in this study were two questionnaire that consists of questions to evaluate the achievement level of problem solving using likert scales (1 as strongly disagree to 5 strongly agree) and evaluate relation of achievement level with the technique used in comic to answer problem solving question using open-ended questions. The data were analysed with descriptive analysis. The photography analysis used to analyse the efficacy of the technique in comic in Mathematics problem solving. The data collected through photovoice. The result showed the achievement level of students in Mathematics relates with the efficacy of the technique used with the comic. The findings of this study emphasis on Mathematics problem solving. |
