“…However, in general, in learning mathematics, mathematical representations are not used as the main focus (Handayani, 2015;Yuniarti, 2013). Even though mathematical representation abilities are very important in learning mathematics, in reality, students tend to imitate the teacher's steps in solving problems (Athallah & Roesdiana, 2021;Rivaldo, 2021;Silviani et al, 2021;Sri, 2019). As a result, students' representation abilities do not develop, even though mathematical representation is very necessary for learning mathematics for both students and teachers (Ambarwati et al, 2020;Gaffar et al, 2019;Maryati & Monica, 2021;Ulya et al, 2019) However, several studies have found that students' mathematical representation abilities are still relatively low.…”
