Abstract

Students need to learn the problem-solving skill with which students can become a problem solver on a daily basis in their environment. Year-seven students have been in their formal phase of physical age; however, many of the students may mentally be still in the particular stage. Thus, the latter students are in the period of transition between solid phase to abstract. Mathematical comics media is one of the media that may able to bridge the transition from particular stage to abstract because the learning of mathematics becomes meaningful when it is adjusted with, the characteristic of the cognitive development of the students. One of the supporting aspects of knowledge is the use of the instructional media being applied. Comics media can allegedly improve problem-solving skills of year-seven students.
