Abstract

This research aims to measure the level of mathematical literacy in the context of daily life among high school students, with a focus on differences between male and female students. The research method employed is quantitative with a survey approach. A total of 13 male students and 24 female students from various high schools participated as subjects. The instrument used was a Likert scale questionnaire consisting of 15 statements designed to measure students' perceptions and understanding of mathematical literacy in everyday life. Data analysis was conducted using the paired sample t-test to compare differences in responses between male and female students. The analysis results showed a paired sample t-test value of -0.368, with a significance value (sig) of 0.719. These findings indicate that there is no significant difference between the responses of male and female students regarding mathematical literacy in the context of daily life. Nevertheless, this research provides an important contribution to understanding students' perceptions of mathematical literacy and its implications in the educational context. Further research can delve into the factors influencing students' perceptions of mathematical literacy and broaden the sample scope to obtain a more holistic understanding of the phenomena under investigation.

Abstract

English plays a strategic role in education because it serves as a means of global communication and an instrument for improving the quality of human resources. However, in learning practice, students still face obstacles in writing skills, especially in mastering vocabulary in descriptive texts. This study aims to identify and analyze vocabulary errors made by junior high school students and explore the factors that cause them. The research method used was qualitative descriptive with 30 students from class VIII B MTs NW Suwangi as subjects. The research instruments were written tests, documentation, and brief interviews with students and teachers. The data were analyzed using error analysis procedures, including identification, classification, and interpretation. The results of the study show that there are four main categories of errors, namely pronoun misuse (58.3%), word form error (25%), misuse of words (12.5%), and redundancy/repetition (4.2%). The main factors causing errors include mother tongue transfer, limited vocabulary, and generalization of grammar rules. The conclusion of this study confirms that vocabulary errors are a natural part of second language acquisition, reflecting the development of students' interlanguage. Therefore, teachers need to implement error-based learning through contextual exercises, descriptive vocabulary reinforcement, and the provision of meaningful language input.
