Abstract

Indonesian students’ relatively low performance in PISA has been closely linked to their difficulties in applying mathematical knowledge to real-world contexts, which often led to errors. The main objective of this study was to explore the types of mistakes students made when solving PISA-type questions within the content area of uncertainty and data. This research was qualitative descriptive in nature. The research subjects consisted of five ninth-grade students from a junior high school in Jambi Province, selected based on teacher recommendations. Data were collected through tests and interviews. The results of the study showed that students frequently made mistakes at the stage of writing the final answer, primarily due to difficulties in interpreting the given information and focusing too heavily on calculation procedures while overlooking what the problem was actually asking. These findings provide a basis for further research on analyzing students’ mathematical literacy skills in solving PISA questions, particularly within the domain of uncertainty and data.

Abstract

This study is qualitative descriptive research that aims to describe eighth-grade students’ numeracy skills in solving a PISA 2022 quantity content problem. This focus is important because PISA-type tasks require reasoning, quantitative interpretation, and decision-making skills that are essential for students’ mathematical literacy in real-life situations. Thirty-two eighth-grade students of a junior high school in Jambi, Indonesia, participated in this study. Data were collected through a written test adapted from the PISA 2022 released items and follow-up interviews with selected students. The results showed that most students demonstrated low numeracy performance, particularly in interpreting information, performing multi-step calculations, and drawing correct conclusions. Only a small number of students were able to meet the expected indicators of numeracy skills. These findings indicate that students have not yet fully met the cognitive demands of PISA quantity tasks. The results highlight the need for instruction that provides more opportunities for students to practice contextual quantitative reasoning. For classroom practice, teachers are encouraged to incorporate multi-step contextual tasks that gradually strengthen students’ interpretation, strategy selection, and reasoning abilities. The findings also serve as a basis for further research on developing PISA-type jumping tasks adapted to relevant local contexts to support students’ numeracy skills.
