Abstract

Creative thinking is an essential competence in mathematics learning because it enables students to generate diverse ideas, approach problems from multiple perspectives, and produce original solutions. However, in the Indonesian educational context, students’ creative thinking skills remain low, and current assessment tools have not adequately measured all dimensions of creativity namely fluency, flexibility, and originality. This study aims to fill this gap by developing and validating a culturally contextualized open-ended assessment instrument designed to measure students’ creative thinking skills comprehensively. Using a research and development (R&D) approach, the instrument was tested with 28 ninth grade students from a junior high school in Malang City. The instrument’s construct validity was examined through Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), and its internal consistency was tested using Cronbach’s Alpha. The findings indicate that the instrument demonstrates good reliability and a clear three factor structure aligning with theoretical dimensions of creative thinking. These results suggest that the developed assessment can effectively capture students’ creative potential within culturally relevant mathematical contexts. The study contributes to educational assessment practices by providing a valid and reliable tool that promotes culturally responsive approaches to fostering creative thinking in mathematics learning.

Abstract

Mathematical reasoning ability is an essential competency emphasized in the Merdeka Curriculum, particularly in the Learning Outcomes (CP) for Phase E, which requires students to understand, generalize, and prove mathematical concepts. However, various studies have shown that Indonesian students' mathematical reasoning skills remain relatively low, including in the topic of sequences and series. This study aims to analyze students’ errors in solving mathematical reasoning problems related to sequences and series in Grade 10, based on Nolting’s error theory. The research employed a qualitative descriptive approach involving 20 tenth-grade students from Senior High School 12 Pekanbaru. The research instrument consisted of four mathematical reasoning essay questions covering arithmetic and geometric sequences and series, adapted from Fadillah. The analysis revealed four types of student errors: Careless Errors (34.30%), Connection Errors (31.20%), Test-Taking Errors (21.80%), and Application Errors (17.50%). These errors were attributed to various factors, including cognitive factors such as lack of conceptual understanding and affective factors such as low learning motivation. The findings highlight the importance of teachers in analyzing student errors to help minimize learning difficulties in mathematics and improve the overall quality of mathematics instruction

Abstract

The Minimum Competency Assessment (MCA) measures students’ numeracy skills, a crucial ability in the 21st-century digital era. However, PISA and the 2024 Indonesian Education Report show that Indonesian students’ numeracy skills remain low. This study aims to describe students’ numeracy skills in solving MCA questions on geometry and measurement content. The method used is descriptive with a qualitative approac. Data were collected through triangulation involving test results from seven MCA numeracy questions on geometry and measurement and through interviews. The subjects of this study consisted of 32 eighth-grade students from SMPN 40 Pekanbaru. The analysis of students’ answers revealed that 46.88% were categorized as low, 43.75% as moderate, and only 9.38% demonstrated a high level of numeracy proficiency. Interviews were conducted with selected students based on the results of the response analysis. Students in the high category were able to understand the context, interpret visual information, and apply reasoning and geometric concepts to real-life situations. They demonstrated the full range of cognitive processes, although improvements in accuracy are still needed. Students in the moderate category showed a lack of systematic thinking and often missed key details due to insufficient attentiveness when reading questions and selecting strategies. Meanwhile, students in the low category experienced fundamental difficulties in understanding visual information, units, and problem contexts. Their responses tended to be based on guesses rather than logical calculation, indicating the need for intensive support and more foundational instruction.

Abstract

Education in Indonesia requires development, particularly in students’ numeracy skills and self-efficacy (SE). The importance of numeracy skills is stated in the Graduate Competency Standards (SKL). Moreover, numeracy skills are also related to students’ self-efficacy. Students with good numeracy skills tend to have high self-efficacy, and students with poor numeracy skills generally have low self-efficacy. Based on these factors, it is necessary to develop an appropriate learning model. The aim of this study is to develop a problem-based learning (PBL) model to enhance students’ numeracy skills and self-efficacy, and to determine the feasibility of the developed product in improving students’ numeracy and self-efficacy. This development research follows the ADDIE stages: Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate. The research methods used were both quantitative and qualitative. Quantitative methods were employed to determine the level of feasibility of the developed product, while qualitative methods were used to describe the calculated feasibility scores, suggestions and comments from validators, teachers, and students. The results showed that the developed product met the criteria of validity and practicality but did not meet the criteria of effectiveness. The ineffectiveness of the product was due to students not being accustomed to using the PBL model and their unfamiliarity with discussion-based learning.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the enhancement of students’ learning motivation and cognitive achievement through the implementation of a module-based instructional model integrated with the local wisdom of West Papua. Employing a quantitative descriptive approach with a one-group pretest–posttest design, data were collected using cognitive tests and a Likert-scale motivation questionnaire. Quantitative analysis was conducted using Minitab software to assess statistical significance, while students’ motivational responses were analyzed descriptively. The results revealed a substantial improvement in students’ cognitive performance, with the average score increasing from 40.80 (pretest) to 86.40 (posttest). A paired-sample t-test indicated a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores (t = -8.718, p < 0.05). Meanwhile, the motivation questionnaire results showed a significant enhancement in students’ learning motivation, with the mean Likert score rising from 3.2 (pretest) to 4.0 (posttest), corresponding to 100% positive responses categorized as highly valid. These findings demonstrate that integrating culturally responsive learning modules can effectively enhance both students’ cognitive understanding and their motivation toward learning mathematics. The local wisdom–based module has proven to be a feasible and engaging instructional tool for contextualized mathematics learning.

Abstract

The ability of mathematical creative thinking is essential for students to possess, but in reality, the level of mathematical creativity in Indonesia remains comparatively low. This study aims to find out if learning with PACE-GeoGebra helps improve students' mathematical creative thinking abilities and to understand how self-regulated learning relates to the improvement of these abilities through PACE-GeoGebra. Quasi-experimental research methodology is employed. The study uses a non-equivalent comparison group design. All of the 10th graders enrolled in one of Cianjur's high schools for the 2024–2025 school year make up the study's population. Two classes—classes X-E and X-F—were chosen as samples from the population using a purposive sampling technique. While the control group employed the standard learning model, the experimental group employed the PACE-GeoGebra learning model. Tests and questionnaires with information on quadratic functions were the tools utilized. Using the two-sample mean equality test, data analysis was done on the average gain index between the two sample classes. The research results show that (1) there is a significant difference in the improvement of mathematical creative thinking abilities between students who use the PACE-GeoGebra approach and students who use conventional learning. (2) There is a correlation between student self-regulated learning and the improvement of mathematical creative thinking skills through PACE-GeoGebra learning.

Abstract

Students' mathematical investigation ability is not only influenced by cognitive knowledge, but also by affective factors such as mathematical disposition and self-esteem. This study aims to analyze the effect of mathematical disposition on students' mathematical investigation ability, analyze the effect of self-esteem on students' mathematical investigation ability, and analyze the effect of mathematical disposition and self-esteem on students' mathematical investigation ability. This study uses a quantitative approach. The population of the study was 49 students of class XI of a private high school in Cianjur Regency in the 2024/2025 academic year. The sample in this study was class XI-1 selected by purposive sampling. The research instruments were mathematical disposition and self-esteem questionnaires, as well as students' mathematical investigation ability tests on circle material. In addition, interviews were conducted with several students to strengthen the results of the mathematical investigation test. The data analysis techniques used included simple linear regression tests and multiple linear regression tests, by first ensuring that the classical assumptions were met. The results of the study showed that there was a significant influence between mathematical disposition and mathematical investigation ability of 40.2%. Meanwhile, self-esteem did not have a significant effect on mathematical investigation ability, with a contribution of 18.7%. Simultaneously, mathematical disposition and self-esteem had a significant effect on students' mathematical investigation ability, with a contribution of 31.6%. This finding emphasizes the importance of strengthening mathematical disposition in learning to improve students' mathematical investigation ability
