The ability of the Question and Answer (Q&amp;A) Method With the Help of Learnin Videos  Against Student Learning Outcomes Amid the Covid-19 Pandemic

This study aims to see and simultaneously describe the ability to think critically and creatively in student physics teacher candidates in the Fermi-Dirac course. Descriptive quantitative was used as the method of this research. Data collection in the study used tests on the cognitive domain in the form of a description of 8 questions where four measured critical thinking skills and four questions measured creative thinking skills. The data analysis process was carried out qualitatively and then described to determine the students' mathematical critical thinking and creative thinking skills, which were then assessed in distribution based on the categories that had been created. The data and facts that the researchers found after the study showed that the average mathematical thinking ability of students was in the Good Enough category, and the average mathematical communication ability of students were also in the Good Enough category.

“…The student's ability strongly influences the thinking process in deriving the Bose-Einstein equation in statistical physics material, and the best mathematical thinking ability will provide much convenience for students in understanding and solving the Bose-Einstein equation. The benefits of students' mathematical thinking skills give educators confidence to pay attention to improving their mathematical thinking skills; in other words, a physics education student should have a maximum mathematical ability so that they can easily solve various phenomena in physics (Putra et al, 2021;Sulman, 2012;Sulman et al, 2022), especially on the derivation of the Bose-Einsten equation.…”

This study aimed to describe the problem-solving abilities and mathematical connections of the sixth-semester students of Physics Tadris in the Statistical Physics course, especially the Bose-Einstein Equation Material. This type of research is quantitative descriptive research. Data collection in this study used a cognitive test technique in the form of a description test to measure students' mathematical abilities, which amounted to 8 questions, of which four were used to measure problem-solving abilities, and four were used to measure students' mathematical connections. Data analysis was carried out descriptively to determine the profile of students' mathematical abilities and the distribution of predicate achievement on the ability of problem fractions and students' mathematical connections. The results showed that students' average problem-solving ability and mathematical connection were in the Pretty Good category.

“…The lecture process emphasizes the focus on the ability to understand mathematical concepts, which are indirectly very important for students. The ability of mathematical understanding makes students able to find ideas and provide solutions (Meiliani et al, 2021;Putra et al, 2021;Sulman et al, 2020) to the derivation of the Maxwell-Boltzman equation that is being analyzed, which ultimately makes it easier for students to be able to easily find ways to solve the Maxwell-Biltzman equation for analysis so that the lecture process can run optimally. In addition to mathematical understanding, of course, students' basic mathematical abilities are also needed so that they can improve their learning understanding, namely mathematical communication skills.…”

The research that has been carried out aims to see the ability to understand mathematical concepts and mathematical communication of students on the Maxwell-Boltzman material for Tadris Physics students, especially students in semester VI. This research is a quantitative descriptive study in which the data collected from the test results and the results of the lecture process at the time of giving the Maxwell-Boltzman material will be analyzed and described and added with a test technique on the cognitive domain in the form of a description test (essay) consisting of 7 test questions, where five questions are for understanding students' mathematical concepts and two questions for technical analysis of students' mathematical communication skills. The data obtained in the quantitative analysis and according to the five categories that have been determined. The facts obtained from the results of the study show that students' ability to understand mathematical concepts in the Maxwell-Boltzman material is in the Good Enough category, and the average mathematical communication ability of students is also in the Good Enough category.
