Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan pemahaman konsep perbandingan siswa SMP berkemampuan matematika rendah.

Kurangnya pemahaman guru matematika akan media pembelajaran berbasis computer salah satunya adalah Aplikasi Geogebradan Maple membuat mereka kesulitan mengajarkan siswa akan rumus-rumus yang dianggap "membosankan" dan "sulit" bagi siswa. Hal ini sejalan dengan survey yang dilakukan terhadap guru matematika SMP/MTs di Proppo, mereka masih banyak yang belum paham akan kedua aplikasi di atas, bahkan ada yang masih belum tahu sama sekali jika ada dua aplikasi tersebut. Melalui dana hibah Lembaga Pengabdian Masyarakat Universitas Madura dilaksanakan pelatihan aplikasi geogebra dan Maple yang bertujuan untuk memberikan bantuan keilmuan dan sekaligus praktek penggunaan aplikasi geogebradan Maple kepada guru matematika se-kecamatan Proppo. Adapun metode yang dilakukan dalam pengabdian ini adalah pelatihan diberikan dalam dua pertemuan .Pertemun pertama membahas dan mempraktekkan aplikasi geogebra dan pertemuan kedua membahas dan mempraktekkan aplikasi Maple. Berdasarkan pengamatan yang dilakukan selama kegiatan pengabdian hasil positif yang didapatkan adalah 1.) peserta pelatihan sangat antusias terhadap materi pelatihan, 2.) peserta pelatihan menunjukkan respon yang positif terhadap materi pelatihan, 3.) peserta pelatihan sangata aktif dalam praktek penggunaaan aplikasi geogebra dan Maple. Melalui kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini, diharapkan dapat menambah wawasan keilmuan dan praktik penggunaan media pembelajaran computer khususnya aplikasi geogebra dan Maple untuk meningkatkan kualitas guru matematika.

This study aims to determine the students' learning outcomes, students' activities and students' response of Osborn model with the Brainstorming technique using the matlab application in the numerical method subjects, especially in the roots of nonlinear equations material. This research is descriptive research with a qualitative approach. The subjects in this study were 6 students of sixth semester. Data collected are through observation of student activities, test questions and student response sheets. While data analysis techniques are carried out using the mean and percentage formulas. The results showed that at the 1st meeting the mean student activity reached 84,5%, the second meeting reached 95,2%, and the 3rd meeting reached 98,2%. Student learning outcomes are the lowest 81 and the highest is 93.5. While the percentage of student responses 93.3% is very good category. From the results of this study, it can be concluded that Osborn Learning Model with the Brainstorming technique by applying matlab application is effective on student learning outcomes in numerical method subjects.

This study aims to describe the commognitive analysis of the solving problem of logarithm on college students of Mathematics. This type of research is a qualitative description. The research subjects were three college students of Mathematics Education from Universitas Madura. The instruments used in this study were mathematical problem sheets and semi-structured interviews. The results of this study show that college students have many differences in working or mistake in mathematics problem-solving. In the word use or use precise words to inform the comprehension, the students have differences in writing base, degree of the numeral, or other symbols. In the visual mediators or use of precise object or media, the students have differences in the premise of working logarithm. In the narratives, students have differences in solving the problem systematically based on comprehension of logarithm form. In the routines, students have differences in understanding the basic concept of logarithmic characteristics.

This study aims to describe and analyze the written mathematical communication of high school students on linear program questions based on gender. This research was conducted at SMAN 3 Pamekasan class XI MIPA I. The subjects in this study were 2 students out of 32 students of class XI MIPA I who were the superior class of mathematics selected by purposive sampling. This research uses descriptive research with a qualitative approach. The instruments used were Mathematics Ability Test, written Mathematical Communication Test and Interview Guidelines. Data were analyzed descriptively in the form of qualitative data obtained from the results of the Written Test to describe students' written mathematical communication. The results showed that female students were more dominant than male students in the cognitive domain and completed written math problems in full.
