Abstract

Poverty was a fundamental issue of concern for every province in Indonesia, and Aceh was no exception. While the percentage of poor people in Aceh had declined over the last 5 years, Aceh still ranked first of Sumatra with an average poverty rate of 15.70%. In addition, this figure exceeded the national poverty average of 9.96%. People were categorized as poor if they had an average per capita expenditure below the poverty line. One of the ways to overcome poverty was by understanding the factors that influenced it. Research on the poverty rate was not enough if it only focused on one location at a given time. Instead, a study was needed over time to observe the poverty rate across time and individuals. Panel data regression analysis was a regression analysis that used data from several individuals observed over a while. The study aimed to obtain a suitable model for the poverty rate data in Aceh and identified the factors influencing the poverty rate in both Aceh and North Sumatra from 2017 to 2021. The method used was panel data regression, covering 23 districts/cities in Aceh and 33 districts/cities in North Sumatra. The research findings indicated that the appropriate model for the poverty rate was the Random Effect Model with individual effects, with an  value of 68.21%. The study identified three significant independent variables that affected the poverty rate in both Aceh and North Sumatra. The common factor for both provinces was economic growth. However, two distinct factors were observed average years of schooling and life expectancy in Aceh, while population density and open unemployment rate were identified as significant factors in North Sumatra.

Abstract

Conceptual understanding is a fundamental skill that students must acquire, making it a key objective in mathematics education. However, there is room for improvement in students' comprehension of mathematical concepts in schools. One psychological aspect that can enhance students' success in learning mathematics is their learning independence. This study explores the relationship between students' understanding of mathematical concepts and their level of learning independence, specifically in the topic of powers. The research employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive design, involving 30 10th-grade students as participants. Data was collected through independent learning questionnaires, tests assessing understanding of mathematical concepts, and interviews. The study's findings reveal that students' understanding of mathematical concepts varies according to their level of learning independence. Students with high learning independence demonstrate a firm grasp of concepts, falling within the high category and fulfilling all six indicators of understanding mathematical concepts. Those with a moderate level of independence display a solid understanding, falling within the medium category and fulfilling five indicators. In contrast, students with low learning independence exhibit a limited understanding, falling within the low category and fulfilling only one indicator of understanding mathematical concepts.

Abstract

Mathematics often evokes fear in students, leading to anxiety when facing math problems. Understanding the phenomenon of math anxiety is a crucial aspect to consider. In this study, researchers employed a quantitative approach to examine math anxiety's impact on student learning outcomes at one of the junior high school in Sigli, Aceh, Indonesia. The population of interest consisted of all students enrolled at the selected school, with the sample comprising all eighth-grade students selected through a simple random sampling technique. A simple linear regression analysis was conducted to investigate the relationship between variables, resulting in the following equation. Furthermore, a rank-Spearman correlation test yielded a correlation coefficient of r = -0.6. The data analysis revealed a significant influence of math anxiety on the student learning outcomes.

Abstract

Problem-solving constitutes a significant objective in mathematics education. However, empirical evidence indicates that students often struggle to answer non-routine math questions. Various factors, including mathematical ability and gender, can influence students' problem-solving skills. The present study aims to investigate Year 10 students' problem-solving abilities based on mathematical ability and gender. A qualitative approach with a descriptive design was employed for this research. The participants comprised 34 Year 10 students. Data collection involved administering math problem-solving tests, mathematical ability test, and interviews. The findings revealed that female students displayed greater attention to detail when answering questions. Both male and female students with low mathematical abilities exhibited limited problem-solving skills, primarily due to difficulties comprehending the information presented in the questions and formulating and executing appropriate plans. Male and female students with moderate mathematical abilities demonstrated moderate problem-solving skills, often making calculation errors and neglecting to perform thorough evaluations. Male and female students with high mathematical abilities displayed moderate problem-solving skills, mainly due to suboptimal planning resulting from the selection of inappropriate strategies. Male and female students with high mathematical abilities showcased problem-solving abilities by effectively analyzing problem information, devising appropriate plans, and conducting thorough verifications.

Abstract

Motivation plays a crucial role in teaching and learning activities as it significantly impacts the quality of learning outcomes, particularly in mathematics. This influence becomes evident when motivation contributes to students' learning achievements. This study aimed to examine whether motivation influenced junior high school students’ learning outcomes. A quantitative approach with a descriptive correlational design was employed. The population solely comprised Year 8 students, selected using a random sampling method. Motivational questionnaires and student learning outcome tests were utilized to collect the data. The data were analyzed using simple correlation tests. The analysis showed a relatively strong positive correlation between student motivation and mathematics learning outcomes (r=0.478). The learning motivation accounted for 22.85% of the variation in learning outcomes. Thus, it can be concluded that motivation contributes to student learning outcomes, with a relatively modest impact. The findings of this study are expected to assist teachers in emphasizing student motivation and helping students attain high levels of motivation, enabling them to solve problems with ease and achieve optimal learning outcomes.

Abstract

This research is driven by the significance of representational proficiencies in acquiring mathematical knowledge. The study aimed to examine students' mathematical representational aptitude in the context of circle. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed to fulfill this purpose, and 31 Year 8 students were selected as the research sample. Data was acquired through tests and subsequent interviews. The findings revealed that students' mathematical representational abilities could be classified as very high in visual representation, high in symbolic representation, and medium in verbal representation. The high-ability group of students demonstrated proficiency across all dimensions of representation, namely visual, symbolic, and verbal. The middle-ability group exhibited proficiency in two dimensions of representation, namely visual and symbolic. The low-ability group only demonstrated proficiency in the visual aspect. Various factors influenced students' representational abilities, including challenges in generating geometric depictions, constructing mathematical models, and articulating mathematical concepts orally. Student errors during problem-solving endeavors were attributed to a lack of attentiveness to the given questions, insufficient review of previous material, limitations in problem analysis, and a deficiency in precision and experience when handling representation-related queries. It is hoped that the findings can serve as a reference for educators to enhance students' representational proficiencies.
