Numeracy Literacy, Students, Junior High School, StrategyAbstract
This study explores strategies to improve junior high school students' numeracy literacy, focusing on enhancing their ability to understand and apply mathematical concepts. It emphasizes the importance of efficient teaching methods, curriculum development, and the integration of technology to support students facing difficulties in reading, writing, and arithmetic. The study aims to address barriers in numeracy literacy through contextual learning methods, including the use of reading books, letter cards, and number cards. Additionally, it highlights the role of educator training and the development of appropriate curricula to foster students' problem-solving abilities and creativity. By reviewing existing literature and school development strategies, this study proposes effective teaching methods and solutions to improve numeracy literacy. The expected outcome is to equip students with essential numeracy skills, preparing them for future academic and life challenges.
