Abstract

The purpose of this research is to describe the process of thinking interaction of students in solving the open-ended problem. The thinking interaction of students' in this study is defined as an activity of exchanging thoughts between students one with other students through communication to produce the suitability of the thinking process between them through the resolution of open-ended problems. This study was conducted on a group of junior high school students with heterogeneous capabilities, consisting of 5 students, and have taken the material to build space. The data of thought interaction activity is obtained from discussion result in solving open-ended problem analyzed by information processing theory. Students' thinking interaction activities begin from one subject person who gives statement and understanding about the problem provided. Activity mutual ideas, complement or give feedback to other subject's comments, ask questions that have not been understood, or give an explanation in deciding the answer to be agreed. Subsequent activities decide the answer orally to be written by each subject. All subjects poured the agreed result on the answer sheet, but there were still doubts from the two subjects on the answer, so the subject looked back at the answers from other subjects. Some subjects continue to write answers and in the end, each subject has a form of answer in accordance with their respective understanding.

Abstract

This research aims at analyzing the representation translation of Junior High School students in solving mathematical questions related to algebra. This research used descriptive qualitative approach. The focus of representation translation used in this research was the external representation which was a verbal translation into diagram, verbal into symbolic, symbolic into diagram, diagram into symbolic, and diagram into verbal. Based on the analysis of research findings, it shows that representation translation of students from verbal, symbolic, and diagram into verbal and diagram was not really mastered by the students. Meanwhile, the representation translation into symbolic was frequently used by the students although they were expected to do other translation rather than symbolic.

Abstract

An assessment has many benefits, especially in efforts to modify tasks. Often the teacher overrides the process of assessing students in problem-solving. Teachers use easy methods to teach. This causes students only to be able to practice questions and solutions conceptually and cannot develop their creativity in problem-solving. In this study aims to assess prospective teachers to accomplish problem-solving so that they can be creative in modifying tasks for students. The main aspect of this study is to provide an assessment of the problem-solving ability so that prospective teachers can change the new assignment. Students were practicing using an approach to a multi-dimensional perspective SPUR. Can make students excited and try to be creative in modifying the task.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify problem posed by prospective teachers about addition fractions based on meaning structure. This study is a quantitative descriptive to identify errors of fraction problem posed by prospective teachers based on the meaning.  46 prospective primary teachers in 8th semester in universities at Surabaya were involved in this research. Instrument in this study is a problem posing worksheet consisting two operations on fractions. Problems posed by prospective teachers were analyzed through three stages, grouping problems based on categories, structure of meaning, and analyze the error of the problem posed. The results of data analysis indicated that: (1) on the category of questions about fractions of 93.48% for 1stoperations and 97.83% for 2ndoperation, (2) on the Non-question category about operations fraction is 6.52% for 1st operations and 1.17% for 2nd operation. Grouping problems posed by prospective teachers based on structure meaning combined category is 62.79% for 1st operations and 75.56% for 2nd operation. For category of part relationships overall is 27.91% for 1st operations and 20% for 2ndoperation, while those which not belonging to the second category are 9.3% for 1st operations and 4.44% for 2nd operation. The errors of problem posed by prospective teacher based on meaning structure are (1) not related to daily life situation, (2) illogical problem, (3) unit is not appropriate, (4) fractions incompatible with the sum operation (5) gives whole number to give meaning fraction, (6) lost information, and (7) the added result exceeds the overall concept of the fraction.

Abstract

Interpreting the mean of the data presented in a bar graph constitutes a mix of two concepts highly useful for testing students? level of understanding of the mean. This study aimed to  describe students? misconceptions in the interpretation of the mean of data that are represented in a bar graph and the causes of such misconceptions and to examine whether misconceptions differed by gender and grade. The participants of this study consisted of 112 students (48 males, 64 females) of the Natural Science program of SMAN 1 Tanjungpinang in three grades?tenth, eleventh, twelfth. Employing a mixed method with an exploratory sequential design, this study collected and analyzed qualitative data prior to quantitative ones. The research identified 12 misconceptions about the mean and 8 causes of such misconceptions, and based on the chi-squared test results, neither gender- nor grade-based difference in students? misconceptions was found. These results have an implication for teachers and other educational stakeholders in considering the achievement of learning objectives and core competences in the learning process, especially in the processing, reasoning, and presentation of the mean of data that are presented in a bar graph.

Abstract

Multiple representations have an essential role in the mathematics learning process for the students, pre-service and in-service teachers. It is important for them to understand the concept of mathematics and mathematical problem solving particularly in word problem-solving. However, pre-service teacher and in-service do not fully notice of using a variety of representations in the learning process. Thus, the purposes of this study are intended (1)  to find out the type of multiple representations used by pre-service teachers to solve the word problem by their own,  and (2) to figure out how they teach the process of word problem solving to the students. The participants of this research were the sixth-semester students of the Mathematics Education Program. Their written responses were analyzed and interviewed (semi-structured interview). The result showed that the types of multiple representations used by pre-service teachers are symbolic and verbal representations. Different multiple representations are used to help the student in word problem solving, even though pre-service teachers did not fully aware to apply them in their teaching activity. Hence, sharing the knowledge and the usage of multiple representations for pre-service mathematics teachers are urgently required in the real classroom setting.
