Abstract

This study aims to describe the problem-solving ability of two-variable linear equation system material in students with visual, auditorial, and kinesthetic learning styles. This type of research is descriptive qualitative. The subjects of the study were grade VIIIB students of SMPN 1 Gunungsari for the 2023/2024 school year, totaling 20 students, with 5 students of visual learning style, 7 students of auditorial learning style, and 8 students of kinesthetic learning style. The sampling technique is carried out by purposive sampling technique. The research instruments are questionnaires, test questions, and interviews. The data analysis technique used is data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions. Analysis is carried out based on John Dewey's stages, namely facing problems, defining problems, finding solutions, testing several solutions, and choosing the best hypothesis. Based on the results of the study, it was obtained that, students of visual learning style, in general, have high problem-solving skills because they are able to carry out all five stages. Students of auditorial learning style, in general, have high problem-solving skills, where auditorial students are able to carry out all five stages. Meanwhile, the kinesthetic learning style has moderate problem-solving abilities, where kinesthetic students are only able to carry out four stages, because at the stage of choosing the best hypothesis, kinesthetic students are not able to carry it out

Abstract

This study aims to analyze mathematical literacy skills in solving PISA mathematics questions based on the level of mathematical literacy skills among students at SMPN 13 Mataram in the 2024/2025 academic year. This is a descriptive qualitative study involving 52 students from classes IX A and IX B, with 8 students selected as subjects. The research instruments used were a mathematics literacy test adapted from PISA and interview guidelines. Data were analyzed based on mathematics literacy process indicators (formulate, employ, interpret). The results showed that out of the 6 levels of mathematical literacy, no students reached levels 5 and 6. At level 1, students could formulate explicit information and solve problems using simple algorithms, at level 2, they could identify implicit information and select basic strategies to solve problems; at level 3, they could process complex explicit information containing distractors and develop sequential strategies for decision-making, while Level 4 can formulate explicit information in everyday contexts and apply strategies to complex concrete situations. Students at Levels 1-4 also have the ability to interpret and draw conclusions based on the context of the problem.
