Hasenda Alfa Dinara, Fadhilah Rahmawati, Nurul — Tue, 15 Nov 2022 00:00:00 +0700

This research aims to describe the critical thinking ability of mathematics students of class VIII of Junior High School N 2 Magelang. The subjects in the study were students of grades VIII-A and VIII-D. The research was carried out in the even semester of the 2021/2022 school year. The data collected is in the form of learning style questionnaire results, mathematical critical thinking ability tests, and interviews in an unscathodox manner. Learning style questionnaires are used to determine students' learning styles, tests to measure mathematical critical thinking ability consist of four questions about the description of polyhedron materials. The results of the questionnaire and test were then analyzed according to the indicators of mathematical critical thinking ability used in this study, namely providing basic clarification, bases for a decision, inference, advanced clarification, supposition and integration. The results of data analysis show that students' critical thinking ability in visual, auditorial, and kinesthetic learning styles is classified as moderate. The results of this study can provide information to teachers about students' critical thinking ability so that teachers are expected to be able to design learning activities that can improve students' critical thinking skills to be good.

Most junior high school students have difficulty in solving math problems, causing students to make mistakes in solving math problems. The purpose of this study is to analyze the types of mistakes made by students in doing problems in the pythagorean theorem material. This type of research is qualitative descriptive research. The instruments in this study are test and interview instruments. The subjects of the study were as many as 9 students from class VIII at SMP Negeri 25 Kota Serang. The results of error analysis in this study show that students made mistakes in solving mathematical problems in the pythagorean theorem material in the form of fact errors, concept errors, principle errors and operating errors. The percentage of errors made by learners on factual errors was 17%, the percentage on conceptual errors was 44%, the percentage on principle errors was 17%, and the percentage on operating errors was 22%. The type of mistake most made by learners is the type of misconception. Concept errors occur because students do not understand the concept of pythagorean theorem material, causing students to have difficulty in solving mathematical problems in pythagorean theorem material.
