Abstract

This study aims to analyze the types of errors made by 11th grade students at SMAS Amir Hamzah Medan in solving geometric transformation problems involving translation, reflection, rotation, and dilation. The study employs a qualitative descriptive approach with a sample of 15 students selected based on high, medium, and low ability categories. Data were collected through essay tests and analyzed using Newman's Error Analysis, which consists of five stages of errors: reading, understanding, transformation, process skills, and writing the final answer. The analysis results indicate that the highest incidence of errors occurred in the understanding stage and process skills stage, each accounting for 36%. Transformation errors accounted for 21.33%, while reading and final answer writing errors were in the very low category, each at 9.33%. These findings indicate that students still face difficulties in understanding basic concepts and technical steps in geometric transformations. Based on these results, it is recommended that teachers implement systematic learning strategies such as Learning Therapy, emphasizing the understanding of prerequisite concepts, writing down known and asked information, and developing the habit of structuring and evaluating solution steps systematically to minimize similar errors in the future.

Abstract

The study aims to describe students' answers in solving reflective thinking problems and literacy of the Pythagorean theorem material, reducing student errors in completing reflective thinking tests and mathematical literacy skills through the application of the inquiry learning model. This study uses a qualitative approach. The subjects in this study were 30 students of class VIII-1 MTs Abata Al Washliyah in the 2024/2025 academic year. The results of the study are as follows: students' answers in reflective thinking and literacy on the Pythagorean theorem material on the reacting, elaborating and contemplating indicators and on students' literacy skills in solving problems on the indicators of being able to describe problems systematically; being able to use concepts, facts, procedures, and reasoning in mathematics; and interpreting mathematics to solve problems. Errors in thinking and reflective literacy skills in the application of the inquiry learning model, students with high categories did not experience errors, in the medium category, students experienced transformation errors, process skill errors, low categories, students experienced errors in understanding questions; transformation errors and process skill errors.
