HOW TO UNCOVER PSYCOLOGICAL PHENOMENA

In Mathematics learning psychology course, at November 10th 2009, the lecturer, Mr. Marsigit tell us that we must give one suggestion or comment about our learning. There are some comments teaching learning process:
1. More responsible
2. In the teaching and learning should be more systematic and clear
3. Syllabus is not clear
4. The Teaching Learning process is not monotone
5. The student should read a lot
6. The student are not ready in the learning process, because the material is not clear

This case is considered as one of communication form between the lecturer and student. So we can know what the better for the learning process. And this case can increase student motivation in following the course.
One communication problem that is discussed in the class is about traumatic. Traumatic is all events that can’t be explained. Philosophically, traumatic is known as accident. In politics, authoritative governance can cause a traumatic. While psychologically, traumatic is known as hermeneutic. In Hermeneutic, there is spiral dynamic. A good communication is a dynamic communication, which is consisting of two kinds, flexible and contextual.
Psychologically, spiral dynamic is known as contextual. While philosophically spiral dynamic is known as flexible, depends on the place and the time. So it is fixing with the real condition.
Authoritarianism can cause traumatic. Everything without any sign or other situations can cause traumatic, too. That case should be notice in the teaching learning process. Don’t become authoritative, because it will cause traumatic for the students.
In this life, we can see outside through three ways:
1. With concepts
2. With perception
3. With sensation
If we look the world only through the sense, it’s not enough, because it is a part of concepts. Experiences that is got from sense is called empirical concept. While the meaning of a priory concept is everything that isn’t look reality, and isn’t look for a data. This concept often is used in pure mathematics. Example: f(x) =x+5, where x is integer. This case can be founded without a data. Sometimes we can use assumption. Assumption is undefined term. It is not need explanation, because it has been assumption for general people. In pure science, we often use definition, axiom, and theorem. All of those are concepts. Generally, life is traumatic, so if you want to still alive, you have to be a courageous person in facing traumatic.

In teaching and learning process there are some cases that we must understand about it.
1. Structure of Teaching
a.Introduction
b.Teaching Learning Process
c.Closing remark
2. The scheme of Interaction
a.Classical
b.Group Discussion
c.Individual
3. The scheme of competencies achievement
a.The nature student
b.The nature subject
4. The Nature of student learn Mathematics, in fact the student:
a.Need motivation
b.Individual
c.Need collaboration
d.Learn in content
