Kemampuan Koneksi Matematis Siswa Ditinjau dari Kemampuan Awal dan Gender

Abstract

This research aimed to examine student’s mathematical connection ability based on previous ability and gender. The instruments of the study were the researcher as the main instrument, the test of prior knowledge, the test of connection ability, interview and documentation. The triangulation technique was used for the data (test, observation, interview, and documentation). The subject of this research were six students representing each category of the previous ability. Three indicators of mathematical connection ability used in this research, namely: connections between mathematical topics, connections with the science other than mathematics, and connection with life. The results showed that 1) high-ability male subject had high levels of mathematical connection ability on indicators of connection with life, 2) high-ability female subject had high level of mathematical connection ability on indicators of connection with the science other than mathematics, 3) medium-ability male subject had high levels of mathematical connection ability on indicators between topics mathematics, 4) medium-ability female subject had high levels of mathematical connection ability on indicators between topics mathematics, 5) low-ability male subject had high levels of mathematical connection ability on indicators between topics mathematics, 6) low-ability female subject had high levels of mathematical connection ability on indicators between topics mathematics.

Analysis of Mathematical Connection Ability in terms of Mathematical Resilience and Gender of MTs Students

“…From the results of the analysis of the two subjects in the high MR category, it was found that female students were superior to boys, but the difference was only slightly where male students were less than perfect in the MCA indicator linking mathematics in their field due to forgetting the speed formula but he knew this question relates to other fields. This is following the research conducted by Aliyah et al, (2019) which found that female students got better test scores than boys. Eliza (2020) also revealed that men are better at reasoning, relying only on their memory, and lacking in literacy while women are better at learning styles where women are more diligent, thorough, and careful in learning and like to read, this is what makes women more attractive.…”

Analisis Kesulitan Belajar Siswa Kelas IV SD Windusari Belitang Jaya Pada Mata Pelajaran Matematika

“…Matematika merupakan aset yang sangat penting bagi siswa sekolah dasar dan menengah karena mendorong perkembangan intelektual secara positif untuk menyongsong perubahan yang semakin maju. Musriliani (Musriliani, 2015) Menurut peneliti, konsep belajar matematika adalah belajar angka dan angka yang prosesnya melalui perhitungan dan memiliki hasil tertentu, dan hasilnya tidak dapat dituliskan.…”

Kemampuan koneksi matematis berdasarkan disposisi matematis siswa pada materi sistem persamaan linear dua variabel

“…Adapun indikator koneksi matematis yang diukur dalam penelitian ini (Latipah & Afriansyah, 2018;Aliyah, Yuhana, & Santosa, 2019;Indriani & Sritresna, 2022), yaitu: a) Mengidentifikasi masalah dalam kehidupan sehari-hari; b) Menggunakan konsep matematika yang terkait dengan topik yang dipelajari; c) Menggunakan konsep matematika yang berhubungan dengan disiplin ilmu lain.…”
