“…A total of ninety (90) students were sampled from the students' population of five hundred and thirteen (513). This forms eighteen percent (18%) of the total population since this agrees with the work of Gorard (2001) who claimed a sampling fraction of between (10 -20)% of the population is acceptable. Therefore, sampling eighteen (18%) present of the population is within (10 -20) % which is enough for the study.…”

This study examined High School students' error displayed in solving trigonometry problems. The literature revealed that trigonometry is difficult for students to understand and our paper contends that identifying students' error and understanding how the errors occurred can serve as a point of reference for instructional decisions which will make the concept easier. The study uses a quantitative research techniques to explore students' errors in solving trigonometry problems. Ninety students were sampled using multistage sample techniques. Trigonometry Achievement Test (TAT) was used in data collection. Descriptive statistics (figures and tables) was used to present the students' error after content analysis was carried out and Modified Newman's Error Hierarchy was used in classifying students' error. The results revealed most students' errors occurs at transforming, processing and encoding stages. Independent sample t-test was used to compare the errors committed by male and female students. Independent samples t-test of groups' differences in means among male and female students indicated that, there was a significant difference in their mean scores at t(89) = 2.198, p < .05. Thus, female students' level of committing errors in solving trigonometry problems was significantly higher than their male counterparts. The study recommends that Mathematics teachers should make the teaching of trigonometry practical and more activity-oriented to limit students' error in solving trigonometry problem most importantly among the female students.

This study aims to describe and compare the students’ reading competencies on high order items across classes, text genres, and reading indicators in SMPN 1 Ubud. The design implemented was descriptive and comparative research. The population of this research was the seventh grade students of SMPN 1 Ubud and the samples were four intact classes which determined through Cluster Random Sampling. The data were gathered by using Reading Competency Test. The collected data were then analysed descriptively and then inferentially by implementing a parametric statistics, namely: 1) central tendency measures, 2) measures of dispersion, and 3) simultaneous comparison. The result shows the students’ reading competency categorized as poor reading competency and there was not significance different in students’ reading competencies on high order thinking items across classes, text genres, and reading indicators. Poor reading competencies implies both of the students and EFL teachers to train intensively and extensively in reading process in order to have ability in determining the reading indicators of both descriptive and recount texts.

“…Therefore, it cannot be separated from critical thinking. It is a reading process carried out to understand deeply about the information on readings/texts, both explicit and implied information from a text or reading it self (Silalahi, 2019), (Dwi Asyura, 2021), (Rosdiana, 2015). According to Nofitria et al, (2017)critical reading is part of an intensive reading process carried out seriously and carefully.…”
