Abstract

Semiotics is defined as using signs to represent mathematical concepts in problem-solving. The mathematical semiotic process involves creating meaning from the triadic relationship between the representamen (R), object (O), and interpretant (I). Mathematical semiotics play an essential role in the cognitive processes of individuals as they formulate and communicate mathematical ideas. Therefore, this study aims to describe the stages of the semiotic process of junior high school students solving integers-related mathematical problems. In this qualitative analysis, the participant is a seventh-grade student categorized as pseudo-semiotic. The research instrument is a test on integers and interviews. The results demonstrate that the semiosis related to integers involves the representamen, object, and interpretant stages. For a subject with a pseudo-semiotic type, this meaning-making process requires the construction of a comprehensive understanding of the concept. Furthermore, the understanding is developed using various instruments, resulting in connection conflicts between different components of the semiotic system. Connection conflict occurs because of the mismatched relationship between the elements of semiosis: representamen, object, and interpretant. A pseudo-semiotic subject only has a superficial understanding of mathematical concepts, making it challenging to establish accurate connections between symbols and their underlying meanings. Consequently, this hinders the ability to understand mathematics profoundly and apply the concepts in real-life situations.

Abstract

Geometry self-efficacy is an essential affective aspect that will influence students in solving mathematics problems, especially geometry material. Therefore, teachers must be able to develop learning instructions that not only affect students' mathematical abilities but also strengthen students' affective aspects. This research explores students' geometry self-efficacy when learning to solve three-dimensional geometry problems through the 5E Instructional Model intervention. A grounded theory design was used to reveal the aims of this research. Participants in this research were one mathematics teacher and 22 students (12 girls and 10 boys) in class VIII at a state Junior High School in Indramayu Regency, Indonesia. The research involved the qualitative analysis of gathered data obtained through observation, questionnaires, interviews, and documentation, employing grounded theory analysis techniques, including open coding, axial coding, and selective coding. The findings revealed that students with high self-efficacy in geometry display confidence in describing and calculating the surface area and volume of three-dimensional geometric objects. Those with moderate self-efficacy in geometry are self-assured in addressing straightforward assignments but may need more confidence in tackling more complex tasks. Conversely, students with low self-efficacy in geometry tend to need more confidence and are prone to giving up easily. Therefore, this research emphasizes that the geometry self-efficacy level can influence how students act and complete 3D geometry tasks given by teachers in learning, especially 3D geometry learning.

Abstract

This research explores the intricate relationship between students' cognitive processes and problem-solving approaches, explicitly focusing on misconceptions in solving quadratic inequalities. This study was conducted among 179 undergraduates in a mathematics education program in Malang, East Java, Indonesia; this mixed-method concurrent explanatory sequential design research employed the DISC questionnaire and quadratic inequality assignments. The DISC questionnaire categorized respondents into Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness. Data were generated from these pre-service teacher responses to the questionnaire, task assignment, and follow-up interviews to solicit information. Purposive sampling facilitated in-depth interviews, providing nuanced insights into the interplay between personality types and mathematical misconceptions. The quantitative data analysis results show a significant association between personality type and the type of error experienced by students when completing an open-ended task about quadratic inequalities X2(12) = 26.836, p = 0.008, V = 0.224. Meanwhile, qualitative data analysis findings reveal patterns associating personality types with specific misconceptions. Dominant traits are linked to theoretical misconceptions, while Influence and Conscientiousness traits correspond to conceptual misconceptions. Additionally, Steady traits are associated with classification misconceptions. This study contributes novel perspectives to mathematics education by exploring the influence of personality on mathematical cognition. The aim is to inform tailored teaching strategies for optimized learning outcomes, addressing persistent barriers posed by misconceptions in quadratic inequalities.

Abstract

Constructing proofs for the limit using the formal definition induces a high cognitive load. Common assessment tools, like cognitive load scales, lack specificity for the concept of limits. This research aims to validate an instrument tailored to assess cognitive load in students focused on the formal definition of limits, addressing the need for diverse strategies in education. The research employs a quantitative survey design with a Rasch model approach, utilizing a data collection instrument in the form of a questionnaire. Subsequently, the data are analyzed by focusing on three aspects: (1) item fit to the Rasch model, (2) unidimensionality, and (3) rating scale. A total of 315 students from three private universities in Banten participated as research respondents. The findings of this study affirm the validity of the cognitive load scale centered on the formal definition of limit, meeting the stringent standards set by Rasch modeling. Additionally, the results of the study provide evidence of the scale’s adherence to the monotonic principle of the Rasch model. These outcomes contribute to a comprehensive understanding of cognitive load in the context of learning formal definition of limit, providing a solid foundation for instructional design and assessment strategies.
