Abstract

This study aims to use the Pendidikan Matematika Realistik Indonesia (PMRI) approach to measure the mathematical reasoning ability of grade VII students in answering PISA-like mathematics problems on number content in the context of COVID-19. This study employs descriptive research with 34 participants from a junior high school in Palembang, Indonesia. Tests, interviews, and observations were utilized to collect data. The method of analysis adopted is descriptive. Google Meet is used to facilitate learning. Learning the PMRI technique was accomplished in this study by assigning sharing and jumping tasks. That is, assignments for students to discuss with each other have different levels of difficulty, followed by two exam questions. In the context of COVID-19, the test questions are PISA-like maths problems. The results show that students’ average mathematical reasoning skill is 63,037, with mathematical manipulation a common indicator. Most students have exhibited indications for presenting conjectures. However, only a few students have put down indicators for drawing logical conclusions, so drawing logical conclusions is an indicator that students rarely see. Overall, grade VII students' mathematical reasoning skills in answering PISA-like mathematics questions on number material in the context of COVID-19 utilizing the PMRI approach is good since students are used to modeling contextual problems such that mathematical manipulation indicators occur.

Abstract

The test is a tool to collect information about the achievement of learning objectives so that the test must have good quality in order to be able to measure students' abilities accurately. To determine the quality of the test, it is necessary to do an analysis, one of which is the Rasch model approach. This study aims to analyze the quality of the final semester test results in learning mathematics—sampling using a purposive sampling technique. The subjects of this study were 56 students of Junior High School (SMP) in Yogyakarta, consisting of 25 males and 31 females. The test instrument consists of 40 multiple choice questions with the correct answer given a score of 1 and the wrong answer being given a score of 0. Therefore, the data obtained is dichotomous. The test kits were analyzed by applying the Rasch model. The study results obtained an estimate of the validity of item fit, where the questions analyzed had an INFIT MNSQ value between 0.94 - 1.11 and all questions with an OUTFIT value t ≤ 2.00; thus, 40 items fit according to the Rasch model. The characteristics of the test questions based on the Rasch model have a very difficult difficulty level of 0 items by 0%. The difficult category is three items at 7,5%, the medium category is 20 items at 50%, the easy category is 17 items at 42.5%, and 0% for the very easy category. The reliability of the case estimate value is 0.00 in the medium category, and the reliability of the item estimate value is 0.85 in the very high category. The implication of this research is additional knowledge regarding the Rasch analysis of mathematical problem models as a graduation standard.

Abstract

The teacher’s attitude towards mathematics teaching is seen as an essential factor in forming students’ attitudes towards mathematics. However, no one has extensively described the reflection of teachers’ self-confidence in teaching mathematics, especially for novice primary teachers. Therefore, the purpose of this study sought to describe a reflection of the self-confidence attitude of novice primary teachers in teaching mathematics. A questionnaire based on novice primary teachers’ teaching experience was administered to a total of 28 novice primary teachers (N = 22 males, N = 6 females) conveniently selected to participate in the study reported in this article. The semi-structured interviews data explored novice primary teachers’ reflections on the given questionnaire scale items. The qualitative data obtained from semi-structured interviews informed the quantitative information extracted from the questionnaires. The results showed that the reflection of the self-confidence attitude of novice primary teachers in low, moderate, and high participants on the scale of confidence in teaching mathematics raises three essential findings, specifically (1) ability on content knowledge, (2) ability to explain, and (3) ability in classroom management. The resulting reflection in low, moderate, and high participants on the scale was an attitude toward success in teaching mathematics, namely, the appraisal of others, and on the scale, the usefulness of mathematics teaching, namely the ability to understand the usefulness of mathematics.

Abstract

The development of mathematical critical thinking ability and individual uniqueness in the learning of prospective teacher students needs attention so that they have sufficient provisions in their future work. This study aims to analyze the differences in prospective teacher students' mathematical critical thinking ability in their achievement and improvement from two different learning models and their learning styles. Problem-based learning was used in the experimental group, while the control group used conventional learning. This study used a quasi-experimental quantitative method with the pretest-posttest non-equivalent group design. Data were collected using: mathematical critical thinking ability test and a learning style questionnaire. Data were taken from 56 students of the Mathematics Education Study Program, Universitas Negeri Semarang. Data analysis was performed using independent samples t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, and normalized gain. The results showed that in the achievement and improvement of mathematical critical thinking ability, students who obtained Problem-based learning overall and viewed from a kinesthetic learning style were better than conventional learning. Meanwhile, in terms of auditory and kinesthetic learning styles, the mathematical critical thinking ability of students who obtained descriptive problem-based learning was better. However, in statistical testing, the two groups were not significantly different. Based on these results, Problem-based learning is considered adequate for developing mathematical critical thinking ability, especially for kinesthetic learning styles.

Abstract

This article explains how to analyze test items in arithmetic operation with fractions to obtain the items' level of difficulty and fitness. Data were collected by using multiple-choice questions given to 50 fourth-grade students of an elementary school in Tasikmalaya city. The answers were then analyzed using the Rasch model and Winsteps 3.75 application, a combination of standard deviation (SD) and logit mean values (Mean). The score data of each person and question were used to estimate the pure score in the logit scale, indicating the level of difficulty of the test items. The categories were difficult (logit value +1 SD); very difficult (0.0 logit +1 SD); easy (0.0 logit -1 SD); very easy (logit value –SD). Three criteria were used to determine the level of difficulty and fitness of the questions: the Outfit Z-Standard/ZSTD value; Outfit Mean Square/MNSQ; and Point Measure Correlation. It resulted in a collection of test items suitable for use with several levels of difficulties, namely, difficult, very difficult, easy, and very easy, from the previous items, which had difficult, medium, and easy categories. Rasch model can help categorize questions and students' ability levels.

Abstract

Various studies on the development of mathematical literacy tests have not shown any research that focuses on developing mathematical literacy tests using the context of Bugis-Makassar local wisdom with Classical Test Theory (CTT). Thus, this study aimed to produce mathematical literacy tests using the context of Bugis-Makassar local wisdom based on CTT for junior high school students through development research using ADDIE design. The development of the test integrates mathematical literacy and local wisdom elements of Bugis-Makassar. There were 15 multiple-choice items developed and tested on 33 males and 68 females at seventh-grade junior high school students. The trial involved two schools in Makassar City using a convenience sampling technique. The test kit was validated by three mathematicians and produced an Aiken index score in the range of 0.67 to 0.89. The empirical data from the trial results were analyzed using CTT assisted by ITEMAN 4.3 software. The test analysis showed an average category for reliability test scores. As many as 47% of the items were in the medium category, and the rest were in the fair category. Meanwhile, 93% of the items have a good discriminatory ability, and 67% have distractors that were not functioning properly, then the tests items must be revised.

Abstract

Mathematics inequality is an essential concept that students should fully understand since it is required in mathematical modeling and linear programming. However, students tend to perceive the solution of the inequalities problem without considering what the solution of inequality means. This study aims to describe students’ mistakes variations in solving mathematical inequality. It is necessary since solving inequality is a necessity for students to solve everyday problems modeled in mathematics. Thirty-eight female and male students of 12th-grade who have studied inequalities are involved in this study. They are given three inequality problems which are designed to find out students’ mistakes related to the change of inequality sign, determine the solution, and involve absolute value. All student work documents were analyzed for errors and misconceptions that emerged and then categorized based on the type of error, namely errors in applying inequality rules, errors in algebraic operations, or errors in determining the solution set, then described. The result shows that there were some errors and misconceptions that students made caused by still bringing the concept of equality when solving the inequalities problem. It made them did not aware of the inequality sign. Students are still less thorough in operating algebra and do not understand the number line concept in solving inequalities. The other factor was giving “fast strategy” to the students without considering the students’ understanding.
