Abstract

Literacy is essential in preparing for 21st-century life and the significant data era. At the very least, people need the ability to process, analyze, read, and use the data to make decisions. This ability is known as statistical literacy. The students' statistical literacy must be diagnosed well for appropriate learning improvements. This study is qualitative research with a quantitative descriptive approach; the instruments used are AKM (Asesmen et al. - Minimum Competence Assessment) problems and Watson's statistical literacy category. The respondents were 187 students from six schools with different statuses (three state and three private schools) with different abilities (two high-level schools, two medium-level schools, and two low-level schools). The results obtained: there are no students at level 1; 3.07% of students are at level 2; 8.82% 0f students at level 3; 14.84% of students are at level 4; 55.61% of students are at level 5, and 17.65% of students gain level 6. Based on the result, it is evident that the students' statistical literacy spread to several levels. Most of the students are in level 5, and a few can gain the sixth level, but still, there are several students at the third level, even the second level. Those data can be used as preliminary data to improve statistical learning methods and teaching materials and for further research, especially about why and how to increase students' statistical literacy

Abstract

Mathematics is a subject that exists at all levels of study and requires the ability to think logically, organize, and demonstrate. One of the materials that require this ability in mathematics is the limit function material. The boundary functional material becomes the basis for mastering the next material, namely derived material. The fact that students do not have a solid understanding of the limit function literature indicates that students do not do well academically at this level. This is because students have difficulty and make mistakes in understanding concepts, facts, and procedures in the limit function literature. Vygotsky's theory can be applied to the matter of limit functions. Vygotsky applies the Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD) which is a level of development slightly above a person's current level of development. When children have learning difficulties, Vygotsky suggests that teachers can use scaffolding as support or assistance through someone who is more proficient in mastering the material to help solve problems, problems for people with higher levels of cognitive development.

Abstract

Students' attitudes towards learning mathematics: "too soft attitudes-very difficult-bored-in a good way" is an expression that is described because of a problem. Difficulties in understanding mathematical concepts have an impact on poor problem-solving abilities, so it is important to know what causes students to make mistakes and difficulties in learning mathematics. The goal to be achieved through this research is to find learning problems, their causes, and how to overcome them in learning mathematics. The research method of this research is a qualitative research based on a phenomenological approach. This study was conducted at his MTs Darul Hikmah Kedungwaru in Tulungagung. The main data sources are students and teachers of mathematics. Sources of supporting data are the Head of MTs Darul Hikmah Kedungwaru and class teachers. Data collection techniques through observation and interviews. Data analysis techniques are data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion/validation. The results are as follows. (a) student problems: Lack of understanding of the material provided by the teacher, low student motivation to study, lazy to do homework regularly. (b) Educator's Problems: The teacher's inability to master the class, the teacher's inability to master the learning material. Efforts to overcome problems learning mathematics: (a) Efforts to Solve Student Problems: Strive to improve the learning environment Attempt to motivate students by providing suggestions to help them learn more actively Reward students with grades and praise for their learning Remind them to complete their homework (b) Efforts to solve educator problems, namely: Schools conduct assessments, summon teachers who are unable to attend class, and conduct teacher coaching and training, especially math teachers
