Abstract

This study addresses the critical issue of insufficient spatial thinking abilities among students, which significantly affects their performance in higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) tasks, particularly in trigonometry. Focusing on 11th-grade students in Tanjungpinang, Indonesia, the research investigates how spatial thinking influences the ability to solve trigonometric comparison problems. Employing a mixed-method approach, the study integrates quantitative data from the Higher-Order Thinking Skills in Trigonometric Comparisons Assessment (HOTS-TCA) with qualitative insights from post-test interviews. Rasch Model Analysis evaluates the quality of an assessment instrument by providing measures of respondent abilities and item difficulties, fit statistics to ensure model alignment, reliability, and separation indices for consistency, a Wright Map for visualizing the relationship between skills and difficulties, and checks for unidimensionality and potential item bias to ensure fairness and validity. The Rasch analysis further confirms the reliability and validity of the HOTS-TCA instrument, highlighting its effectiveness in measuring spatial thinking across varying ability levels. The study finds that students with high spatial ability excel in visualizing geometric relationships but struggle with complex three-dimensional tasks. In contrast, medium-ability students have difficulties with mental manipulation and real-world applications, and low-ability students face significant challenges in basic visualization and interpreting geometric structures, leading to frequent misconceptions.

Abstract

Students frequently encounter difficulties comprehending and applying the least common multiple (LCM) concepts due to traditional teaching methods lacking engagement and failing to incorporate relevant real-life contexts. Through the Indonesian Realistic Mathematics Education approach, students are expected to be able to solve the problems given related to the Least Common Multiple (LCM) topic and understand it more deeply. This research is design research with a validation study type that includes three main stages: preparing for the experiment, designing an experiment, and retrospective analysis. A literature review and needs analysis were conducted in the preparation stages to identify problems in learning this LCM topic. The design experiment stage involved using activity sheets, which were implemented into teaching and integrated the LCM concept utilizing the context of a calendar. This stage involved data collection through observation, questionnaire, documentation, and field notes. Retrospective analysis was conducted to evaluate the learning design and make revisions based on the evaluation result and feedback from students, teachers, peers, and lecturers. The result showed that using the context of the activity calendar in learning for LCM topics can enhance students’ understanding of the material and make the learning process more contextual and interesting.

Abstract

Mathematics research often focuses only on students' learning outcomes without considering their emotional aspects. This study aims to describe the tendency of students' sentiment toward mathematics in general and partially based on mathematics learning outcome groups, namely high, medium, and low. In addition, a mood analysis was conducted using Ekman's Basic Emotion classification. Data collection techniques are questionnaires and documentation. The questionnaire contains open questions about students' opinions on mathematics and closed to queries for student demographics. Documentation is done by collecting test scores from student grade books. This study used a descriptive method with data in the form of 72 comments from grade XI high school students in Bandung City, which were analyzed using the Orange Application Sentiment Analysis. The results of the study showed that (1) student sentiment was generally dominated by positive sentiment at 72.22%, (2) positive sentiment also dominated the groups of students with high, medium, and low learning outcomes, with a percentage of more than 68%, and (3) the results of the classification of emotions based on Ekman's Basic Emotion indicated that "joy" was the most dominant emotion, while "anger" had the lowest frequency of occurrence. This study provides new insights regarding students' emotional aspects in mathematics learning, which can be used to improve teaching strategies.

Abstract

In education, evaluation instruments such as tests are important tools to measure students' abilities objectively. However, unbalanced question quality, such as too easy difficulty levels or ineffective distractors, can reduce the validity and reliability of the test in distinguishing participants' abilities. This study analyzed the quality of the midterm test Mathematics questions for Grade VI at Sekolah Prestasi Global. Analysis using CTT with the help of SPSS and JMetrik allows for a more detailed evaluation of the quality of the questions. The source of research data was the results of 111 students' answers to 25 Midterm Exam Questions, with 15 multiple-choice questions analyzed further, consisting of 10 multiple-choice questions and five true-false questions. The results showed that most of the UTS Mathematics questions for Grade VI were relatively easy (80% with a difficulty level >0.70), so they were less effective in distinguishing participants' abilities. Only three questions were in the ideal difficulty level category (0.31–0.70), while most distractors were ineffective with low or zero discrimination values. Although the overall reliability of the question was good (Cronbach's Alpha 0.763), improvements in test quality are recommended through question revisions, distractor improvements, and a more balanced distribution of difficulty levels. This study concludes that the quality of the Grade VI Mathematics UTS question at Sekolah Prestasi Global needs to be improved through revision of easy questions, improvement of distractors, and a more balanced distribution of difficulty levels to produce a test instrument that is more valid, reliable, and able to evaluate participants' abilities accurately.

Abstract

This study aims to develop a product in the form of a mathematics teaching module based on the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model to enhance students' mathematical communication skills in the context of linear equations and inequalities with one variable for Grade VII students in junior high schools (SMP/MTs). The study evaluates the teaching module's validity, practicality, and effectiveness. Additionally, the findings of this research can serve as a reference for teachers in designing teaching modules that improve communication skills in other mathematical topics and as a resource for students to practice and enhance their communication skills. This research is based on the importance of mathematical communication skills for students. According to the Ministry of National Education, one of the objectives of mathematics learning is to enable students to communicate their ideas through symbols, tables, diagrams, or other representations. However, field observations show that the reality is quite the opposite. The mathematical communication skills of Grade VII students (Phase D) in junior high schools are still relatively low, particularly in linear equations and inequalities with one variable. One of the indicators of this issue is that students do not create mathematical symbols accurately when solving problems. While they can solve problems presented in a format like the teacher's examples, they struggle with different problem formats, especially word problems, which are confusing. The data collection instruments used in this study include validation and practicality instruments. The data collection techniques involve interviews, questionnaires, and mathematical communication skill tests. The data analysis techniques employed are both quantitative and qualitative analyses. The development of the teaching module in this research follows the 4-D model (Four-D Model), which consists of four stages: defining, designing, developing, and disseminating.

Abstract

Mathematics anxiety (MA) is a common issue in primary education, negatively impacting students' academic performance, motivation, and confidence in mathematics. This study addresses existing gaps by systematically analyzing global trends, theoretical foundations, causes, and effective interventions for MA. A systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted using PRISMA guidelines, which included the stages of identification, screening, eligibility, and inclusion. Articles analyzed from the Scopus database were published between 2014 and 2024. The findings reveal a significant rise in MA research in recent years, with major contributions from China and the UK. Key theoretical foundations include anxiety and cognitive load theories, emphasizing the interplay between emotional and cognitive factors in MA development. Major causes of MA include cognitive limitations, gender, and curriculum. Effective interventions involve pedagogical approaches, psychological strategies, teacher support, and technology integration. These approaches include active learning, mindfulness techniques, and the use of interactive digital tools. This study highlights the importance of collaboration among educators, policymakers, and researchers to mitigate MA's impact and foster positive mathematical experiences for primary school students.
