Abstract

Low math learning outcomes in students, especially in comparison materials, are reflected in low scores on the National Exam and learning outcomes in the classroom. Several factors, both internal and external, can cause learning difficulties experienced by students. This study aims to analyze the obstacles to students' difficulties in learning mathematics and their causes. The subjects involved were 30 students. This type of mixed research uses data collection methods through tests, interviews, and questionnaires. The instruments used are closed questionnaire sheets and interview guidelines. Data analysis techniques using data collection are interactive model data analysis techniques, especially in the data reduction and conclusion drawing sections. The results revealed that 12 students experienced difficulties in interpreting language. These difficulties include difficulty understanding the problem's core and integrating everyday language into the depth of mathematical language. The conclusion that can be formulated is that the difficulties experienced by students arise because of themselves and from people around their school environment. This research implies that educators design materials by improving concepts and mathematical literacy to overcome student difficulties.

Abstract

Students still experience difficulties and many misconceptions about mathematical concepts, especially integer operations. The urgency of the research is based on the fact that these misconceptions can affect the development of students' understanding in mathematics. The aim is to identify and analyse students' errors and misconceptions using the Rasch Model. The research method used is quantitative with a survey approach, with respondents of 675 elementary and high school students in Makassar. Data were collected through instruments, multiple-choice questions arranged according to mathematics curriculum standards, then analysed using the Rasch Model to identify the type of misconception and the level of difficulty of the questions. The results show that the main misconceptions are related to the understanding of negative symbols and the concept of numerical balance. These findings indicate the need to develop more comprehensive diagnostic instruments and improve teacher training in integer learning. In conclusion, the use of the Rasch Model has proven effective in identifying misconceptions and can be the basis for developing learning strategies. The implications of the research support teacher training and methods for learning mathematical concepts.
