Abstract

Assessment in education has shifted from summative to formative models in recent decades, with technological advancements facilitating flexible implementation anytime and anywhere. Stemming from this phenomenon, this study aims to identify the trends in mathematics learning assessment in Southeast Asia through a systematic literature review (SLR) utilizing the PRISMA protocol. Articles were collected from the Scopus and ERIC databases, yielding an initial 1533 articles, which were then filtered to 39 final articles for analysis. The results indicate that Assessment for Learning is the most frequently studied assessment topic in the context of mathematics assessment in Southeast Asia (15 articles), with quantitative research dominating the methodologies employed (18 articles). The most prominent research objective is assessment for evaluation purposes (nine articles). Furthermore, junior high school and undergraduate levels are the most researched educational levels (10 articles each). Lastly, the Quizizz application is the most frequently discussed assessment practice in mathematics classrooms in Southeast Asia (two articles). The practical implication of these findings highlights the need for a study on the topic of assessment as learning in mathematics education. More effort is needed to make prospective teachers and teachers of mathematics utilize technology in assessment in mathematics learning.

Abstract

Critical thinking is a fundamental competence in 21st-century education, particularly in mathematics, where students frequently encounter contradictory information that requires logical reasoning and reflective judgment. This study explores the stages of critical thinking among junior high school students when solving contradictory mathematical problems. A qualitative descriptive design was employed, involving two eighth-grade students from SMP Negeri 01 Sumber Pucung, Malang, who were selected based on their skeptical responses to illogical mathematical tasks. Data were collected through open-ended tests and interviews, then analyzed to capture reasoning patterns and problem-solving strategies. The findings revealed three distinct stages of mathematical critical thinking: (1) Initial Stage (interpretation), where anomalies are sensed; (2) Tracing Stage (analysis), where contradictions are identified; and (3) Global View Stage (evaluation and inference), where holistic reasoning and alternative solutions are proposed. Subject 1 demonstrated conceptual awareness, cognitive flexibility, and evaluative rigor, while Subject 2 showed procedural accuracy but limited inferential precision. These findings suggest that contradictory problems can serve as effective instructional tools for balancing procedural and conceptual reasoning. Practical implications highlight the need for integrating contradictory problems into mathematics instruction to promote metacognitive reflection. Future research should expand participant diversity, employ longitudinal and experimental designs, and explore affective dispositions influencing students’ critical engagement.

Abstract

Derivatives are a significant concept in calculus; nonetheless, students' conceptual understanding remains inadequate.  Therefore, a conceptual understanding of this subject should be a priority.  This study aimed to elucidate the conceptual understanding of Mathematics Education students on the topic of Derivatives.  A qualitative approach was employed.  The participants in this study comprised 62 students enrolled in the Mathematics Education programme who completed the Differential Calculus course.  The instrument employed was a conceptual knowledge assessment comprising three questions that examined the definitions of derivatives, derivative theorems, and derivatives of implicit functions.  To investigate students' conceptual understanding, the researcher interviewed four students selected to represent each category for every topic.  The employed data analysis method was qualitative data analysis as per Miles and Huberman.  The findings indicated that the majority of students had not employed the correct notion.  Students encounter difficulties in determining the differentiability of a function at a certain point and in applying the rules of multiplication and differentiation to implicit functions.  It can be argued that students' conceptual understanding of derivatives was significantly deficient.
