BELAJAR MATEMATIKA DENGAN MENYENANGKAN MELALUI WORDWALL BERSAMA YAYASAN KASIH ANAK KANKER INDONESIA

Abstract

Community Service Activities (PkM) is one of the tri dharma of higher education which aims to increase student competence and awareness of problems in society. Community Service in the context of mathematics is an activity that aims to increase people's understanding and competence in using mathematics in everyday life. In the context of mathematics education, many students find it difficult and tend to get bored with this lesson. However, with a more enjoyable learning approach, students' motivation and understanding of mathematics material can increase. This activity aims to provide an interesting mathematics learning experience through the use of the Wordwall platform to children with cancer who live temporarily at the Patient Shelter Home of the Indonesian Cancer Children's Cancer Foundation (YKAKI). Children undergoing cancer treatment are given the opportunity to learn mathematics through educational games on Wordwall. This activity can help them keep learning math and reduce anxiety about their school learning. The impact of this activity shows that using Wordwall as a learning medium provides a fun and interactive experience, increases interest in learning mathematics, and fosters self-confidence in children with cancer in working on math problems. Therefore, the use of technology in mathematics learning can be an effective alternative for improving the quality of education, especially for children who have certain health conditions.
