Abstract

Students frequently respond to problems posed by their instructors through trial and error, without first grasping the underlying concepts. They often perceive the problems as entirely new and unrelated to their previous experiences, leading to a lack of confidence and reinforcing the belief that mathematics is a difficult subject. Consequently, their responses are often incorrect or incomplete. The objective of this study is to describe the mathematical problem-solving abilities of grade XI students on the topic of sequences and series in one of the schools in Bekasi Regency. This research employed a descriptive qualitative method, with data analysis techniques based on the interactive model developed by Miles and Huberman. The subjects of this study were 25 grade XI students selected using purposive sampling. The test instrument consisted of problem-solving tasks, while non-test data were obtained through interviews. The results indicate that students' mathematical problem-solving abilities fall into three categories: 4% of students demonstrated high problem-solving skills, 4% were in the medium category, and 92% were classified as low. A detailed analysis of problem-solving indicators reveals that: (1) in understanding the problem, many students struggled to identify the given information and the goal of the problem; (2) in devising a solution plan, most students failed to select an appropriate strategy, often guessing rather than structuring a logical approach; (3) in executing the plan, students in the low category frequently made calculation errors and misapplied formulas; and (4) in reflecting on the solution, very few students revisited their answers to verify accuracy or consider alternative methods. These findings suggest that students’ mathematical problem-solving abilities remain relatively low, with significant gaps in comprehension, planning, execution, and reflection. Strengthening these aspects through targeted interventions is necessary to enhance students’ overall problem-solving skills.

Abstract

Elementary mathematics education necessitates new instructional strategies that can address the varied baseline competencies and backgrounds of kids. The Eliciting Activities Model is a strategy that prioritizes student-centered discovery to enhance learning outcomes. This study seeks to examine the use of the Eliciting Activities Model on mathematics learning outcomes, focusing specifically on students' beginning mathematical competencies and their educational backgrounds. This quantitative study was carried out in three elementary institutions: SDN Batujajar 3, SDN Sukamaju, and SDS Yayasan Beribu, encompassing a total of 81 pupils. The research utilized a survey methodology and applied Two-Way ANOVA to investigate the impact of school origin and beginning mathematical proficiency, along with their interaction, on mathematics learning outcomes. The data gathering process included pre-tests to evaluate students' basic mathematical competencies and post-tests to measure learning results following the implementation of the model. The findings indicated substantial disparities in mathematics learning outcomes contingent upon school origin and pupils' beginning competencies. A notable interaction effect was observed, wherein students with high beginning ability from SDS Yayasan Beribu attained superior learning outcomes relative to students from SDN Batujajar 3 and SDN Sukamaju. The findings indicate that the Eliciting Activities Model effectively improves mathematics learning outcomes, especially when tailored to students' beginning skills and the educational environment.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the significance of mathematical reasoning in problem solving, while self efficacy is considered to influence its development. The objective of this study is to the level of mathematical reasoning ability and self efficacy while also investigating the relationship between these two variables in SPLDV material. The study employs a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The research participants numbered 32 people from class VIII at a junior high school in Karawang Regency. Data collection was done using a mathematical reasoning ability test and a self efficacy questionnaire, both of which were analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistics. The descriptive analysis provides an overview of students mathematical reasoning ability and self efficacy levels, while the inferential analysis applies the Pearson Product Moment correlation test to determine the relationship between the two variables. The descriptive analysis revealed that the average score for students mathematical reasoning ability was 40.63, lacing it in the moderate category, indicating that not all indicators of mathematical reasoning were well achieved. The average self efficacy score was 86.34, which also falls within the moderate range. The inferential analysis showed a strong and significant relationship between mathematical reasoning ability and self efficacy, with a correlation coefficient value of 0,803 and Sig.(2-tailed) = 0,000 where 0,000 < 0.05. This reveals the greater the students self efficacy, the better their ability in mathematical reasoning.

Abstract

Critical thinking is an essential component of mathematics learning, particularly when students are required to solve word problems that demand reasoning, interpretation, and systematic decision-making. However, evidence from previous studies shows that many junior high school students still struggle to apply critical thinking skills effectively, especially in the topic of Systems of Linear Equations in Two Variables (SPLDV). This study aims to analyze the types of errors made by students when solving SPLDV word problems based on indicators of mathematical critical thinking skills. This qualitative descriptive study involved 36 eighth-grade students from SMP Negeri 1 Ciranjang. The data were collected through five open-ended test items developed according to four indicators of mathematical critical thinking: interpretation, analysis, evaluation, and inference. Students’ written responses were scored using an established rubric, and the data were analyzed through the processes of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings show that students frequently experienced several types of difficulties, including: (1) failing to identify the known and asked information; (2) using unsystematic problem-solving procedures; (3) constructing incorrect or incomplete mathematical models; (4) applying inappropriate strategies; (5) performing inaccurate or incomplete calculations; and (6) being unable to draw conclusions aligned with the context of the problem. These results indicate that students’ mathematical critical thinking skills related to SPLDV remain weak and require improvement. Therefore, structured guidance, explicit reasoning instruction, and consistent practice are needed to strengthen students’ problem solving abilities.
