Abstract

Calculus learning requires a high level of visualization in instilling concepts optimally to students. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to look at students' innovative attitudes in developing matlab GUI-based learning media in solving calculus problems and see the influence of the ability to use matlab GUI attributes on the level of innovation of the students in developing learning media. In the early stages, the students developed media according to the given topic. In the second stage, the product was assessed in terms of its validity. The students' innovative attitudes were assessed by a team of experts using questionnaires with 5-point Likert scale. From the 16 media successfully developed, validation results were obtained with an average score of 3.83 which means "valid". Meanwhile, from the assessment of innovative attitudes, the students’ attitudes are in the category of "innovative" with an average score of 3.61. In addition, the results of the regression tests revealed that the innovative attitudes are influenced by the ability to use the matlab GUI attributes by 84.2%. The rest is influenced by other factors with similarities: . Lastly, the results of the assessment showed that the media belonged to the category of "very effective" (score 81.2%).

Abstract

One of the impacts of online learning that is not optimal is learning loss. Therefore, the aims of this study, we conduct computing practicum with Maple and Matlab to improve students' ability to develop learning media based on Network Virtual Laboratory (NVL). The implications of this practicum can improve students' innovative attitudes in developing various learning media NVL-based, with still through the validation process and field tests so that quality learning media is produced  . The subject of this study consisted of 61 students who took the integrated mathematics computing course calculus  . This is a development research (R&D), where each student develops learning media then validated and field trials. We assess each media resulting from the development using questionnaires and field observations. The results showed that as many as 85% of students have been able to innovate well in developing learning media NVL-based including function limit materials, derivatives, and integrals. The results of the assessment of the expert team showed that the ability of students in developing learning media reached an average score of 3.97 which is categorized as "innovative", while the results of product trials for early-level students obtained an average of 4.07 blessings "very qualified". Furthermore, the practicum module and all media results of student development have been uploaded to the University's Learning Management System Moodle-based for use in the learning process in the future. We hope that the learning media that has been developed can be applied to calculus learning in the future.

Abstract

Proportional reasoning plays a crucial role in mathematical reasoning, yet many students struggle to coordinate multiplicative relationships when solving mathematical problems. This study aimed to examine the processes behind students’ errors in proportional reasoning and to describe the types of incorrect strategies they used when working through a contextual joint‑work problem. Using a qualitative exploratory descriptive design, data were collected from students’ written solutions, think‑aloud explanations, and interview responses to capture their reasoning processes in depth. The participants were 15 first-semester students from the Mathematics Education Department, Universitas Islam Negeri (UIN) Mataram. Results showed four major categories of incorrect reasoning: intuitive reasoning based on misleading but salient information, additive reasoning that relied on differences rather than multiplicative structures, proportion attempts that identified proportional cues but applied them incorrectly, and other incomplete or unsupported strategies. Additive reasoning emerged as the most dominant pattern across students of varying proficiency, indicating a strong tendency to default to non‑proportional interpretations even when the situation required multiplicative thinking. Although some students recognized structural features such as periodic assistance, they struggled to coordinate unit work or rates, leading to systematically flawed conclusions. These findings suggest that students’ proportional reasoning errors stem from entrenched intuitive and additive tendencies. The study highlights the importance of instructional approaches that explicitly develop unit‑rate reasoning, strengthen multiplicative understanding, and support accurate representation of proportional situations.
