Abstract

This study aims to describe the mathematical connection abilities of ninth-grade junior high school students in solving story problems on probability. The aspects examined include connections among mathematical concepts, links to other disciplines, and relevance to daily life. A descriptive qualitative approach was applied to 22 students at a junior high school located in Tapung Hilir District. Data were collected through essay-based tests and semi-structured interviews, with three students selected to represent high, medium, and low levels of mathematical connection ability. Results showed that 9 students were categorized as high, 9 students as medium, and 4 students as low. Students in the high category demonstrated a strong conceptual understanding, although they lacked systematic problem-solving strategies. Medium-level students showed comprehension yet required guidance. Low-level students struggled to interpret story problems and relate them to probability concepts. These findings emphasize the need for contextual learning and structured practice to enhance students’ mathematical connection abilities.

Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the mathematical connection abilities of ninth-grade junior high school students in learning mathematics on the subject of Two-Variable Linear Equation Systems (SPLDV). This study used a qualitative method with a descriptive approach, which aims to understand phenomena in depth through direct observation. The study was conducted at a junior high school in Riau, with a sample of 12 ninth-grade students who had studied the topic of Systems of Linear Equations with Two Variables (SPLDV). The sampling technique used in this study was purposive sampling, selecting three students for further analysis based on the following criteria: (1) students with high mathematical connection skills (all indicators met), (2) students with moderate mathematical connection skills, and (3) students with low mathematical connection skills. The instruments used in this study consisted of a written test and an interview guide. The written test comprised three essay questions designed to measure students' mathematical connection skills in the SPLDV material. The results and discussion of this study showed that 6 students had high mathematical connection skills, 2 students had moderate mathematical connection skills, and 4 students had low mathematical connection skills

Abstract

Purpose – This study describes seventh-grade students’ mathematical connection ability in rational number topics at an Islamic Integrated Junior High School in Pekanbaru, prompted by recurring difficulties with cross-conceptual and contextual problem solving. Methodology – Using a descriptive qualitative design and purposive sampling, three Grade VII students were selected to represent high (DP), medium (KY), and low (IS) achievement. Data were gathered through a written test (three rational-number tasks) and in-depth interviews guided by NCTM (2000) mathematical connection indicators. Analysis included data reduction, indicator-based coding, test–interview triangulation, and conclusion drawing. Findings – DP satisfied all three indicators consistently. KY met some indicators but showed weaknesses in symbolization and contextual application. IS showed limited connections within mathematics, across disciplines, and to daily-life situations. Connection ability varied with conceptual understanding and independence, suggesting the need for more contextually and integratively focused instruction on rational numbers. Novelty – The study offers detailed qualitative profiles of mathematical connections in rational numbers across three distinct ability levels using NCTM (2000) indicators. Significance – Results support teachers, curriculum developers, and researchers in designing learning tasks and interventions that explicitly cultivate mathematical connections.
