Abstract

Mathematical modeling is a process for producing mathematical models. This process requires analysis, creativity and precision to create the right mathematical model for the problem to be solved. In mathematical modeling, mathematical formulas, principles and concepts are also needed to understand patterns and provide solutions to problems. This research is motivated by the importance of mathematical understanding of mathematical modeling concepts. The aim of this research was to analyze the mathematical understanding abilities of students at SMPS HKBP Pulo Brayan class VIII in mathematical modeling material.The research subjects were 20 students in class VIII of a private junior high school in the city of Medan. The research methodology used is a qualitative case study type by analyzing student answers and interview results. The instruments used were mathematical understanding ability tests and interview sheets. Tests are used to provide a more in-depth explanation of students' mathematical understanding abilities, while interviews are used to check answers to questions that students have worked on. The results obtained were that students with high abilities had high mathematical understanding abilities with a percentage of 75%, students with medium abilities had moderate mathematical understanding abilities with a percentage of 20%. And students with moderate abilities have moderate mathematical understanding abilities with a percentage of 5%. In other words, students with high abilities have high mathematical understanding abilities. students with moderate abilities have moderate mathematical understanding abilities, and students with low abilities have low mathematical understanding abilities.
