Abstract

Math is often seen as a difficult subject and causes anxiety. This is due to students' own perceptions, which make them unhappy in learning mathematics. In fact, student happiness in learning mathematics is an important aspect that can affect student learning outcomes. Therefore, this study aims to develop contextual mathematics learning activities with MathCityMap to support student happiness. This research uses the ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation) model in its development. The data collection techniques used were semi-structured interviews, implementation observation, and questionnaire distribution. The questionnaire responses before the application of the high level of happiness indicated that 16 students reported a high level of happiness. While the results of the questionnaire response after implementation, the level of high happiness amounted to 13 students. There was an insignificant decrease in student happiness. This decrease was caused by technical constraints, high temperatures, and problem places that could not be used.
