| description | There are many ways of analysing effectiveness of learning
especially in computer learning environment. However, not much
attention has been given to analyse it from fuzzy theory
perspective. Due to the fuzziness in perception toward learning,
this paper presents an application of fuzzy set conjoint model in
analyzing students’ perceptions on learning algebra and role of
teacher in the presence of a computer algebra system (CAS). The
study involves a survey which consists of eleven attributes in
which six attributes were about learning algebra and another five
attributes about role of teacher in a CAS learning environment.
Data were collected from one hundred and sixty four students at
a secondary school in Terengganu, Malaysia. Scores of
perceptions were transformed into degree of similarity and level
of agreement for attributes using fuzzy set conjoint model. It is
found that attributes about learning indicate the highest degree of
similarity at 0.77 with the level of ‘disagree’ while attributes
about role of teacher measured at 0.81 degree of similarity with
the level of ‘strongly agree’. These measurements implicate the
successful of fuzzy approach to evaluate perceptions toward
learning algebra in CAS environment.
Keywords: fuzzy sets, conjoint model, perceptions, computer
