Abstract

The study explores how the implementation of a problem-based learning strategy, combined with a realistic approach and facilitated through Moodle, can contribute to the development of students’ mathematical literacy. The study involved seventh-grade students from SMP Negeri 20 Semarang during the 2023/2024 academic year and employed a quantitative research design. Data were collected through testing to assess students’ learning outcomes. The data analysis involved prerequisite testing of the pretest and posttest data, followed by hypothesis testing on the posttest results. The study demonstrates that utilizing a problem-based learning approach, integrated with realistic contexts and facilitated through Moodle, substantially improved students’ mathematical literacy, effectively addressing all phases of instruction: planning, implementation, and evaluation. © 2025 by the authors.
