Abstract

Difficulty is the cause of errors, math errors refer to actions or results that do not follow the correct steps or procedures in solving math problems. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to describe procedural errors in solving social arithmetic problems using Polya's steps. In this context, procedural errors refer to mistakes made by students while following the systematic steps recommended by Polya, which include understanding the problem, planning a solution strategy, carrying out the plan, and reviewing the results. This study aims to identify where and how errors occur at each of these stages, as well as to provide a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by students in solving social arithmetic problems. This research used a qualitative approach with a case study design. The participants of this study were 22 students of class VII of State Junior High School 3 Satu Atap Tawangharjo. Data validity uses triangulation of methods, namely through interviews and observations, and source triangulation. Data analysis technique with the flow method of the Miles and Huberman model. The study found that students experienced errors at each stage of Polya's steps. The percentage of student errors at each step is as follows: 20% in the understanding the problem step, 30% in the devising a plan step, 35% in the carrying out the plan step, and 15% in the looking back step. Three students were selected as samples, S-1, S-2, and S-3, each showing errors at different stages. S-1 made errors in understanding the problem and devising a plan, S-2 in devising a plan and carrying out the plan, while S-3 made errors in carrying out the plan and looking back. This research will describe the problem-solving errors experienced by students based on each Polya step they perform.

Abstract

Population estimates are needed to project future populations, allowing for preparation in facing the possible impacts of population growth. This study aims to find a general formula or formula for the first-order linear differential equation and the arithmetic method based on the average value of the error of both, in projecting the population in Surakarta City in the future, and to determine the method that has a higher level of accuracy. This study is included in the category of descriptive research with a quantitative approach. Data were collected through literature studies and documentation of the population in Surakarta City from 2016 to 2024. Meanwhile, data analysis was carried out using quantitative descriptive analysis and comparative analysis. The study results show that the formula obtained for the first-order linear differential equation method is N(t)=562801 exp(0.0071997706t. While the formula obtained for the arithmetic method is Pt = 562801 (1+0.007357544t). From the comparison of the two methods, the arithmetic method is proven to be more accurate because it has a smaller average error (MAPE-based) than the first-order linear differential equation method.  These results can provide insight into the best methods for estimating population growth as the basis for population policy planning and regional development.

Abstract

Mathematical skills are essential in academic contexts, everyday life, and various professional fields. This study is motivated by the low achievement of Indonesian students' mathematics skills in the PISA survey and the importance of integrating technology and psychological factors in 21st-century mathematics learning. This study analyzes the direct and indirect effects of using GeoGebra, self-efficacy, complex work character, and critical thinking ability on students' mathematics learning achievement. This study uses a quantitative approach with a correlational research design  and involves a sample of 156 grade XI students at a high school in  Boyolali. Data collection was carried out through questionnaires and tests, which were tested for validity and reliability, and data analysis was carried out by path analysis using SPSS. The results showed that the use of GeoGebra and self-efficacy had a significant direct effect on the character of hard work. However, the four variables had no significant direct effect on mathematics learning achievement. The indirect effect of self-efficacy on learning achievement through complex work character was significant, while the other indirect paths were insignificant. This study concludes that complex work character is an important mediator that connects self-efficacy with mathematics learning achievement. This study recommends strengthening self-efficacy and utilising learning technologies such as GeoGebra and appropriate pedagogical strategies to build positive learning dispositions and improve mathematics learning outcomes.

Abstract

This community service program aims to implement RME in secondary school mathematics, develop RME-based worksheets, assess its impact on students' outcomes, and explore teachers' and students' responses. The participants involved were students from a combined class of Grade VIII Tahfidz and Regular tracks. The activity was carried out using a Participatory Action Research model. Data were collected through questionnaires, mathematics tests, observations, interviews, and documentation. A paired sample t-test was employed to analyze the data and determine whether there was a significant difference in students’ learning outcomes prior to and following the implementation of RME. The community service results indicated that the implementation of RME successfully enhanced student engagement and understanding in mathematics learning. Statistical analysis showed a significant difference between students’ scores before and after the RME-based instruction, with the average score increasing from 46.36 to 62.44. Questionnaire responses revealed that students positively perceived the RME-based learning, particularly in terms of engagement, conceptual clarity, and meaningful learning experiences. Teachers also expressed that the RME approach provided new perspectives for delivering mathematics more contextually and engagingly, and showed interest in applying it to other mathematical topics. These findings imply that the RME approach has the potential to be sustainably integrated into broader mathematics learning through continued collaboration and material development.

Abstract

Concept understanding allows students to relate existing knowledge to new information or situations, so that they can represent mathematical ideas in various forms, both verbally, visually, and symbolically. This study aims to describe the effect of gender differences on students' mathematical concept understanding ability in social arithmetic material in junior high school. The research method used was qualitative with a case study approach, involving 22 seventh-grade students who were selected voluntarily. Data were collected through observation, tests, document analysis, and in-depth interviews, then analyzed using data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion-drawing techniques. The results showed that male students tend to rely more on logic and reasoning in solving problems, while female students are more analytical but sometimes less optimal in mathematical representation. Nevertheless, both gender groups were able to fulfill the indicators of concept understanding, such as restating concepts, classifying objects, and applying concepts, although with different approaches. These findings indicate the importance of considering gender differences in designing inclusive and effective mathematics learning strategies. In addition, this study provides important implications for the development of gender-responsive learning strategies to improve students' conceptual understanding.

Abstract

The fragmentation of creative thinking structures is a phenomenon requiring serious attention in Realistic Mathematics Education (RME). However, studies that systematically explore how students’ creative thinking fragmentation manifests across RME learning stages remain limited. This study aims to examine the types and forms of students' creative thinking fragmentation across four RME activities: situation, model of situation, model for knowledge, and formal mathematics. This research employs a qualitative case study design. Participants consisted of 18 seventh-grade students from an Integrated Islamic Junior High School in Sukoharjo Regency. Data were collected through non-routine mathematical problem tests and in-depth interviews, with validity ensured through source triangulation. Data analysis involved thematic coding based on a fragmentation typology aligned with RME stages, followed by data reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. The results identified five types of fragmentation: (1) less-strict fragmentation at the situation stage, (2) translational fragmentation (text to symbol) at the situation stage, (3) pseudo-false fragmentation at the model of situation stage, (4) translational fragmentation (text to image) at the model for knowledge stage, and (5) pseudo-true fragmentation at the formal mathematics stage. These findings extend theoretical perspectives and inform instructional design and scaffolding strategies in RME classrooms.

Abstract

Batik Ceplok Sogan Solo is one of the traditional batik motifs that has a distinctive golden brown color produced from natural dye of soga tree bark (Peltophorum pterocarpum), but it is less known by the younger generation. Therefore, the integration of batik in mathematics learning is one of the strategies to introduce the batik culture. This research aims at mathematical concepts such as geometry, algebra, arithmetic, and statistics in solo ceplok sogan batik motifs. This research uses qualitative ethnography. The subject of this research is the Solo Ceplok Sogan batik motif. Data validity was obtained through source triangulation, while data analysis included reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The exploration process was carried out by answering four main questions, namely “where do I start looking?”, “How do I find it?”, “How do I recognize that it has found something significant?”, and “How do I understand what it is?”. The results show that of the four math concepts, only one, geometry, was found in this batik. Sub-concepts of flat geometry (quadrilateral and circle), and sub-concepts of plane geometry (congruence and straight line segment), as well as sub-concepts of transformation geometry (dilation, reflection, and translation). These findings can be integrated into mathematics learning through the development of ethnomathematics-based assessments oriented towards High Order Thinking Skills.

Abstract

[English]: This study aims to identify students’ difficulties in learning curved-surface solids, analyze the key aspects of their conceptual understanding, and explore their needs regarding content and digital features for an RME-based e-module. A mixed-method approach with a sequential explanatory design was employed. The participants consisted of 94 ninth-grade students from a private junior high school in Surakarta, Indonesia. Data were collected using a questionnaire as well as in-depth interviews. Quantitative data were analyzed descriptively, while qualitative data were processed through reduction, display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that students continue to struggle with visualizing three-dimensional shapes, understanding the structure and use of formulas for volume and surface area, and identifying components of curved-surface solids. Their conceptual understanding falls within the “moderate” category, with noticeable uncertainty in explaining, connecting, and applying concepts. Moreover, students require content that offers deeper conceptual explanations, step-by-step procedural examples, and contextualized exercises, highlighting the need for integrating the RME approach into the e-module. They also expect digital features such as 3D visualizations, tutorial videos, interactive object manipulation, and automated assessments.

Abstract

Reflective thinking plays a vital role in mathematics learning, particularly in solving complex problems. Understanding students’ reflective thinking abilities across its aspects—technique, monitoring, insight, and conceptualization—is essential for selecting appropriate instructional methods. This study aims to describe junior high school students’ reflective thinking abilities in learning statistics based on their initial mathematical ability. A qualitative approach with a case study design was used to explore reflective thinking skills in the four aspects: technique, monitoring, insight, and conceptualization. The research participants consisted of 30 seventh-grade students from a junior high school in Boyolali, Indonesia, who were grouped into three categories based on their mathematical ability: high, medium, and low. Data were collected through reflective thinking tests, observations, and interviews, and analyzed using the constant comparative analysis method. The results reveal a hierarchical relationship between mathematical ability and reflective thinking. Students with high mathematical ability demonstrated complete reflective thinking, fulfilling all indicators across the four aspects. Students with moderate ability exhibited partial reflective thinking, meeting some indicators but not fully optimizing others. Students with low mathematical ability showed the weakest reflective thinking skills, meeting indicators only partially in technique, monitoring, and insight, while failing to achieve the conceptualization indicators optimally. These findings confirm that foundational mathematical knowledge is a critical determinant of students’ capacity for deep reflective problem solving in statistics and provide important implications for the development of targeted instructional methods.
