Abstract

One of mathematical abilities which is concepted by NTCM must be mastered by a student is mathematical connections. Some Study’s results showed that mathematics anxiety can influence students' mathematical abilities, including mathematical connections abilities. The study intends to know about  mathematical connection’s ability that will be reviewed from high school students,s mathematics anxiety  in solving problem related to material sequences and series. The samples in this study were 36 students of class XI IPA 2 at SMA N 1 Sekampung  in East Lampung in  academic year 2020/2021. Qualitative approach with descriptive method is used in this study. The tehnicque in collecting the data in this study by  providing students math anxiety quessionair and  tests to see the abilities of mathematical connections. There were 8 students indicated high math anxiety, 19 students indicated moderate math anxiety and 9 students indicated low math anxiety. The analysis was focused on  the students who are chosen as the subject from each category. The conclusion is that student indicated  high mathematics anxiety was able to achieve the ability to connect mathematical topics, connect mathematical topics to other sciences, while students with moderate and low mathematics anxiety can only achieve mathematics connection ability in indicator of connection in and between mathematical concepts. There is an anomaly in this study, which is due to high mathematics anxiety student get  mathematical connection ability tend to be better. Keywords : Mathematical connection, mathematics anxiety, sequence
