Students frequently respond to problems posed by their instructors through trial and error, without first grasping the underlying concepts. They often perceive the problems as entirely new and unrelated to their previous experiences, leading to a lack of confidence and reinforcing the belief that mathematics is a difficult subject. Consequently, their responses are often incorrect or incomplete. The objective of this study is to describe the mathematical problem-solving abilities of grade XI students on the topic of sequences and series in one of the schools in Bekasi Regency. This research employed a descriptive qualitative method, with data analysis techniques based on the interactive model developed by Miles and Huberman. The subjects of this study were 25 grade XI students selected using purposive sampling. The test instrument consisted of problem-solving tasks, while non-test data were obtained through interviews. The results indicate that students' mathematical problem-solving abilities fall into three categories: 4% of students demonstrated high problem-solving skills, 4% were in the medium category, and 92% were classified as low. A detailed analysis of problem-solving indicators reveals that: (1) in understanding the problem, many students struggled to identify the given information and the goal of the problem; (2) in devising a solution plan, most students failed to select an appropriate strategy, often guessing rather than structuring a logical approach; (3) in executing the plan, students in the low category frequently made calculation errors and misapplied formulas; and (4) in reflecting on the solution, very few students revisited their answers to verify accuracy or consider alternative methods. These findings suggest that students’ mathematical problem-solving abilities remain relatively low, with significant gaps in comprehension, planning, execution, and reflection. Strengthening these aspects through targeted interventions is necessary to enhance students’ overall problem-solving skills.

Elementary mathematics education necessitates new instructional strategies that can address the varied baseline competencies and backgrounds of kids. The Eliciting Activities Model is a strategy that prioritizes student-centered discovery to enhance learning outcomes. This study seeks to examine the use of the Eliciting Activities Model on mathematics learning outcomes, focusing specifically on students' beginning mathematical competencies and their educational backgrounds. This quantitative study was carried out in three elementary institutions: SDN Batujajar 3, SDN Sukamaju, and SDS Yayasan Beribu, encompassing a total of 81 pupils. The research utilized a survey methodology and applied Two-Way ANOVA to investigate the impact of school origin and beginning mathematical proficiency, along with their interaction, on mathematics learning outcomes. The data gathering process included pre-tests to evaluate students' basic mathematical competencies and post-tests to measure learning results following the implementation of the model. The findings indicated substantial disparities in mathematics learning outcomes contingent upon school origin and pupils' beginning competencies. A notable interaction effect was observed, wherein students with high beginning ability from SDS Yayasan Beribu attained superior learning outcomes relative to students from SDN Batujajar 3 and SDN Sukamaju. The findings indicate that the Eliciting Activities Model effectively improves mathematics learning outcomes, especially when tailored to students' beginning skills and the educational environment.

This research is motivated by the significance of mathematical reasoning in problem solving, while self efficacy is considered to influence its development. The objective of this study is to the level of mathematical reasoning ability and self efficacy while also investigating the relationship between these two variables in SPLDV material. The study employs a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The research participants numbered 32 people from class VIII at a junior high school in Karawang Regency. Data collection was done using a mathematical reasoning ability test and a self efficacy questionnaire, both of which were analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistics. The descriptive analysis provides an overview of students mathematical reasoning ability and self efficacy levels, while the inferential analysis applies the Pearson Product Moment correlation test to determine the relationship between the two variables. The descriptive analysis revealed that the average score for students mathematical reasoning ability was 40.63, lacing it in the moderate category, indicating that not all indicators of mathematical reasoning were well achieved. The average self efficacy score was 86.34, which also falls within the moderate range. The inferential analysis showed a strong and significant relationship between mathematical reasoning ability and self efficacy, with a correlation coefficient value of 0,803 and Sig.(2-tailed) = 0,000 where 0,000 < 0.05. This reveals the greater the students self efficacy, the better their ability in mathematical reasoning.

Problem-solving ability is an essential skill that must be possessed by students, especially in Vocational High Schools (SMK), in order to apply the concepts learned in real situations. However, many students have difficulty in identifying and solving mathematical problems because the learning method is still centered on the teacher and the minimal use of interactive learning media. This study aims to analyze the mathematical problem-solving ability of vocational high school students whose mathematics learning uses the Problem Based Learning model assisted by interactive media canva and quizizz compared to those who use regular learning. This study uses a quasi-experimental method with a Nonequivalent Control Group Design. The research sample consisted of 64 grade XI students of SMKN 1 Cariu, which were divided into an experimental class (32 students) who received learning using PBL assisted by interactive media Canva and Quizizz, and a control class (32 students) who used regular learning methods. Data collection was carried out through problem-solving ability tests (pretest and posttest), questionnaires and observations. Data analysis using inferential statistics, namely the average difference test with N-Gain as a measure of learning outcomes, and thematic analysis for qualitative data. The results of the study showed that the mathematical problem-solving ability of vocational high school students whose mathematics learning used the Problem Based Learning model assisted by interactive media canva and quizizz was better than those who used regular learning.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the mistakes made by students while working on math problems in Sequence and series. The background to this study is that it is difficult to understand students during their studies, which leads to mistakes in solving the math problems of Sequence and series. The purpose of this study is to determine what mistakes are common in solving questions about Sequence and series. The subjects of this study were 10 students of eleventh grade at SMK Plus Darussurur, Cimahi City. The data collection method uses written essay questions with results obtained from the analysis of the level of error based on the Kastolan Theory. Based on the results of the research and discussion, it was found that the level of student errors in working on sequence and series problems is as follows : 1) Conceptual errors with a percentage rate of 50% with the criterion of "High Enough" error rate; 2) Procedural Errors with a percentage rate of 32.1% with the criterion of "Low" error rate; 3) Technical errors with a percentage of 17.9% with the "Very Low" error rate criterion. From this, we can conclude that the common error in solving the Sequence and seriesproblem is a form of conceptual error. This means that the students' conceptual understanding of Sequence and series is still lacking. Because learning tends to focus on procedures without linking basic concepts, lack of visualization and real context, and limited abstract thinking skills and varied exercises.

Problem solving ability is one of the skills that need to be developed in students. The background of this study is based on the results of preliminary observations which show that students' problem solving skills and self confidence are still low, one of which is caused by the use of conventional learning methods. This study aims to determine the effect of problem-based learning on improving students' mathematical problem solving ability and self-confidence, see the effectiveness of problem-based learning on students' mathematical problem solving ability and self-confidence and see students' responses to problem-based learning. This research used quasi-experimental method with Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design. The research subjects were VIII grade students of SMP Negeri 2 Saguling as many as 64 students, consisting of two classes, namely experimental and control. The research instrument was a description test to measure mathematical problem solving ability and a Likert scale to measure students' self-confidence. Data were analyzed using normality test, homogeneity, t-test, Mann-Whitney, and N-Gain calculation. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the experimental and control classes in improving mathematical problem solving skills seen from the average n-gain value of the experimental class in the high category while the control class was in the medium category. Problem based learning is very effective in improving mathematical problem solving skills seen from the percentage of student learning completeness and effective in increasing student self confidence. Students' response to problem-based learning was positive.
