BILINGUALISME DALAM PEMBELAJARAN MATEMATIKA

Abstract

The purpose of education is to create a generation that has competencies that can compete both on a national and international
scale. Accordingly, mathematics education in schools should provide the competence that enables students to align their
abilities with other students in the international world. To be like that, the student must have the ability to understand the
English language which is typical for the field of study of mathematics. In order for them to access the correct information so
as to avoid mistakes and misunderstandings. For that learning mathematics in schools should provide an introduction to the
terms of English in mathematics so that students become familiar with the use of different foreign terms. But in fact, the use
of English in learning mathematics in schools is generally still very limited. This is due to a lack of understanding of
bilingualism in mathematics learning, so teaching bilingual math to teachers can be a fear of its own. This paper explores
how bilingual math learning is, about how it is prepared, and how it is executed. Then the teachers no longer feel afraid to
try it.
