Abstract

Abstrak. The mathematical literacy ability is crucial for the students to have in the mathematical study. The purpose of this study is to find out how a student's mathematical literacy ability is reviewed from gender. It falls into a sort of descriptive qualitative research. Subject is chosen using an impressive sampling technique. The data collection techniques used in this research are tests and interviews. To obtain validity data on research used triangulated techniques. The data analysis techniques used in this study are data reduction, data presentation, and deduction drawing. The results of this study show that students' mathematical literacy ability in solving contextual problems between men and women has almost the same characteristics. Male and female students can only achieve indicators of formulating problems and using mathematics to solve problems. This is also the basis for why literacy in Indonesia is low. Lack of motivation and monotonous learning models can also be the cause of low mathematical literacy.

Abstract

Mathematical reasoning is a crucial competency in geometry, yet many students struggle to bridge the gap between abstract concepts and real-world contexts. This study aims to analyze the mathematical reasoning processes of senior high school students when solving a contextual geometry problem. This study involved 36 eleventh-grade students at a senior high school in Central Java, selecting 3 subjects through purposive sampling for analysis. The supporting instruments used included a mathematical geometry reasoning test and an in-depth interview guide. The instruments used have gone through the stages of validity testing from experts. The approach used in this study is descriptive qualitative. The results showed that each subject had a tendency to have a relatively similar mathematical reasoning process but in S1 subjects made a unique representation because made an image first. This finding is of concern to teachers or practitioners that representation is an important part of the mathematical reasoning process, especially in geometry materials.
