Analysis of Mathematical Literacy on Students’ Metacognition in Conic Section Material

Abstract

Mathematical literacy is one of the components that use mathematical concepts and applies them to an everyday situation. Mathematical literacy helps people to identify and understand the role that mathematics plays in the world, and to make the well-founded judgments and decisions required in life by constructive, engaged, and reflective citizens. By contrast, not everybody acquires sufficiently. This study aims to describe the ability of mathematical literacy especially geometry literacy in terms of student metacognition on conic section material. The problems in this study were: 1) How is the ability of mathematical literacy in terms of student metacognition on conic section material 2) What types of mistakes do students make in solving the problem of cone section and 3) What factors cause students to make mistakes in solving conic section question. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The subjects in this study were 36 mathematics education students who took courses in Analytical Geometry. The data collected using observation, written test, and interview. Before the researcher conducted the analysis, the researcher examined the validity of the data using validity and reliability tests in order to obtain valid data. Furthermore, the valid data were analysed descriptively through identification, grouping, clarification, explanation and conclusion.

Augmented Physics’ Lab: Magnetic Field Use Virtual Learning Media for 21st Century Students

“…Data from the Program of International Student Assessment shows that aspects of Indonesian science were placed 38 th in a series in 2000 and 2003 among an average of 393 and 395, and rated 50 th in 2006 by a record of 393, whereas in 2012 it ranked 64 th from 65 countries by a number of 382. This illustrates that the score of Indonesia's scientific achievement is significantly below the international average set at a score of 500 (Salsabila, Rahayu, Kharis, & Putri, 2019). This is also supported by Trends in Mathematics and Science Study data which the result in the field of physics show that Indonesia scored 397 where this amount is subsequently the international score of 500.…”

Profil Kemampuan Literasi Matematis Siswa Dalam Menyelesaikan Soal High Order Thinking Skill

“…Literasi matematis adalah ketrampilan siswa dalam membaca informasi, menganalisis, memahami masalah serta membuat keputusan dengan cara yang benar (Salsabila et al, 2019) Berdasarkan hasil penelitian sebelumnya, belum ada penelitian yang menghitung tingkat literasi matematis dan fokus pada kemampuan penyelesaian soal materi sistem persamaan linear tiga variabel berorientasi HOTS. Alasan pemilihan materi SPLTV yang berorientasi soal HOTS adalah karena materi ini dinilai memiliki tingkat kesulitan tinggi karena mengambil contoh pengaplikasian pada kehidupan sehari-hari.…”

Integrasi Sejarah Matematika dalam Pembelajaran Matematika pada Materi Phytagoras

“…Penerapan Teorema Phytagoras pada kehidupan sehari -hari Soal di atas berkaitan dengan minat siswa di bidang pramuka. Selain itu, metode pembelajaran di atas adalah studi kasus yang merupakan langkah yang tepat untuk meningkatkan keingintahuan siswa (Setyowati, 2007), serta dapat dikembangkan lebih luas dalam mengasah kemampuan berpikir kritis matematis (Putri, 2020) dan kemampuan metakognitif siswa (Salsabila, 2019). Metode penyajian soal dengan metode ini juga menarik karena berkaitan dengan kehidupan sehari-hari.…”
