Abstract

This study aims to development the design of hypothetical learning trajectory (HLT) in solid geometry learning for elementary school students grade 2 in Indonesia. The research method used in design research with 3 phase, namely preliminary design, teaching experiment phase, and retrospective analysis phase. In this study, steps are discussed are preliminary design. The main activities carried out include needs investigations, curriculum analysis, literature studies, and designing initial prototypes. Further, have generated HLT using an ethnomatematics. ethnomatematics is mathematics in culture. HLT is used as a guideline in the implementation of learning as well as a follow-up to all possible problems faced by students in the learning process. HLT patterns found can be used as material for consideration to design appropriate learning designs with the learning path of students so that they can increase student success in learning.In this study, HLT is a follow-up of needs analysis based on the results of identification carried out by the researcher. The article about needs analysis were published in The 2nd International Conference On Child-Friendly Education (ICCE) 2018. © 2020, IJSTR.
