Abstract

This research aims to describe the level of understanding the concept and critical thinking in resolving trigonometric equations using graphs. Tests and interviews were conducted to search for data and study more in the ability to understand the concepts and critical thinking skills that students have in resolving trigonometric equations using graphs. The test given to the students is a test of the explanation with the subject of his research is a class XI student. The subject selection of six students is based on the category of ability and daily replay value of the student in trigonometric materials. The six students are each ? two students of high, medium and low categories. The results showed that the ability level of understanding students ' concepts in determining the set of solving trigonomic equations using graphs, gained students understanding the concept of high and moderate levels. Students with a high level of understanding are able to fulfill all indicators ? an indicator of concept comprehension. Students with the level of understanding of concepts are also meeting the indicators of understanding the concept but less appropriate, which has not been able to identify the properties of a concept. Students are also less able to classify objects based on the requirements that make up the concept. The level of students ' critical thinking ability to determine the set of solving trigonomic equations using graphs obtained by the subject of students critical thinking moderate and low levels. Students with critical thinking levels are not yet able to meet interpretation indicators, i.e. students have not been able to understand and write the answer to the problem given. Students with critical thinking levels are also underprivileged to meet critical indicators of inference. Students with critical thinking levels are less able to draw conclusions, i.e. less capable of providing the right reasons for student work. Students with critical thinking levels are low, not yet capable of meeting critical thinking indicators in determining the set solving trigonometric equations using graphs. Students have not been able to meet all indicators of critical thinking ability.

Abstract

This research was to describe students? mathematical communication skills based on their learning styles. This research was a descriptive research with qualitative approach. Data was obtained in three steps, namely written test on SLETV material, questionnaire on learning styles, and interviews. Research subject was eighth grade students. The procedure in this research began with the pre-field stage. At this stage, the research was designed, starting from observation and interviews with the teacher, as well as discussion with the supervisor. The second was the field stage, which was the stage for conducting research. The final stage was writing the report, which was the stage where researchers have conducted the research, processed and analyzed data that has been obtained from the research. Data collection techniques in this research were distributing questionnaire, giving test questions about SLETV, and conducting interviews to find out the students? mathematical communicationskills more specifically. The instruments in this study were questionnaire onlearning styles, test questions about SLETV, and interview guide sheets. Dataanalysis techniques in this research aimed to achieve data reduction by sorting out important answers from student results in the form of questionnaire, test, and interviews. Data presentation was in the form of narrative texts. Interviews were aligned with the test questions about SLETV. Finally, conclusions were formulated by describing each student?s written mathematical skill based on the 4 student learning styles. Based on the results, students with interpersonal learning style had the ability to learn better through friendship, students with self-expressive learning style had the ability to learn by paying more attention to the final results and tended to use unusual ways to find the best results, students with understanding learning style had the ability to see facts and remember large amounts of knowledge, ideas, theories, or concepts, while students with mastery learning style were able to write to the point and focus more on results.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the implementation and effectiveness of the PBL learning model with Maple Software in solving Trigonometry problems during mathematics lessons. It is descriptive research with a quantitative approach. The participants were 20 tenth-grade students from an vocational school in the second semester of the 2022/2023 academic year. Data were collected through student questionnaires and written tests. The questionnaires assessed student understanding in solving Trigonometry problems with Maple Software, while the tests included 5 questions to evaluate problem-solving skills using the software. The findings indicate that: (1) The PBL model with Maple Software enhances student engagement and effectively solves Trigonometry problems. (2) The PBL model using Maple Software is effective in improving students' problem-solving abilities in Trigonometry.
