Abstract

Algebra is one of concept that must be learned  by pupils. It is because the algebraic concept can be used in all areas of mathematics. One of the ways that is used to develop pupils' algebraic abilities is to think algebraically. While one of the ways  to develop pupils' algebraic thinking skills is to adapt pupils with mathematical problem solving. The purpose of this study is describing algebraic thinking profiles of junior high school pupils in mathematical problem solving. The description of pupils' algebraic thinking profiles is explained based on six indicators namely generalization, abstraction, analytic thinking, dynamic thinking, modeling and organization. This research is a qualitative study using test and interview methods. The research subjects consisted of one student in each student with high mathematical abilities, medium mathematical abilities and low mathematical abilities. The results showed that there were differences in algebraic thinking  of junior high school pupils  in solving mathematics in terms of mathematical abilities. Based on research data shows  that pupils with high mathematical abilities always think algebraically in each problems solving are given, while students with medium and low ability do not always think algebraically in each of problem solving.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the students' thinking ability in solving mathematical problems with Islamic nuances on the subject of the 7th grade set of MTs Darul Ulum Banyuanyar. Before conducting the research, the subject was given learning or knowledge about mathematics with Islamic nuances, more specifically the set material. The technique of taking research subjects is done by using purposive sampling technique. The selected subjects were 3 respondents. In checking the validity of the research using triangulation, the triangulation used is time triangulation. The results of this study indicate that high-ability students can pass all indicators in the indicators of critical thinking, creative and inductive reasoning. Meanwhile, for students with moderate abilities (second and third subjects) in critical thinking, the two subjects go through elementary clarification indicators, not through basic support indicators and determine strategies and tactic. Indicators for drawing conclusions (inference) and further clarification (advances clarification) can be passed, but in the work carried out, it is not done correctly. In creative thinking, students with moderate ability are both through the indicators of fluency and flexibility, and not through indicators of originality and elaboration. Whereas in inductive reasoning the second subject only met two of the 3 indicators of inductive reasoning, namely, fulfilling the indicators of identifying mathematical processes/concepts and their tendencies from the given situation, and compiling estimates relevant to the statement. Meanwhile, in inductive reasoning, the third subject only fulfills one indicator, namely identifying mathematical processes/concepts and their tendencies from the given situation.

Abstract

The objectives in this study are 1) Describe the implementation of the 2013 curriculum in mathematics learning, 2) Formulate what factors support and hinder the implementation of the 2013 curriculum. This study is a type of qualitative research using a descriptive approach. The study subjects were mathematics teachers who taught in class X of SMA Muhammadiyah 3 in Tangerang City. Data collection techniques used are in-depth interviews, observation, documentation. Technical data analysis is done by reducing, presenting data, and verification. The results showed that the X grade mathematics teacher in implementing the 2013 curriculum was still lacking. This can be seen by teachers not compiling RPPs based on the 2013 curriculum. As a result, the learning process is not in accordance with the demands according to 2013 curriculum references. Factors that prevent teachers from implementing the 2013 curriculum are teachers who have not attended 2013 curriculum training, teachers have not joined and are taking part in routine activities in the city high school MGMP routine Tangerang, schools have not facilitated 2013 curriculum training activities and the lack of existing infrastructure in the school environment to support the implementation of the 2013 curriculum

Abstract

The focus of this research was to verify if there was a link among anxiety toward mathematics, learning engagement, and their perception of technology's usefulness in mathematics. This ex-post research looked into the relationship and predictive degree of students' math anxiety, learning engagement, and perceived usefulness of technology to their mathematics achievement. Students' math anxiety and perceived usefulness of technology were found to be high in the study, whereas student engagement was found to be low and level of students' performance in mathematics was also high. Both math anxiety and students' perceptions of the utility of technology in learning have a significant impact on students' mathematics performance, but not on their engagement. The findings showed the importance of a high level of anxiety in improving student math performance. Additionally, math anxiety and the perceived usefulness of technology were discovered to be predictors of student mathematics performance. The findings suggest that anxiety, engagement, and perceptions of technology's usefulness should all be considered when improving students' general mathematics performance.
