Email this article Problem Solving Ability of Junior High School Students Towards Geometry: Gender and Mathematical Disposition Analysis
Abstract
Abstract : Problem solving ability of Junior High School students towards geometry: Gender and mathematical disposition. Objectives: The purpose of this study aimed to analyze the effect of gender and mathematical disposition towards the problem-solving ability of geometry at Junior High School students in Bandar Lampung City. Methods: The study used a survey method with two-way analysis of variance. Gender and mathematical disposition are independent variables, while the problem- solving ability of geometry is dependent variables. Findings: The results showed that there was no difference in the average of the problem-solving ability of geometry between male students and female students. Moreover, there was no interaction effect gender and mathematical disposition towards the problem-solving ability of geometry. Last, the average the problem-solving ability of geometry of students who had a high mathematical disposition was higher than students who had a low mathematical disposition. Conclusions: The difference in geometry problem-solving ability occured in male and female students.
Keywords: Problem-solving ability, geometry, gender, mathematical disposition
Abstrak: Kemampuan pemecahan masalah geometri siswa SMP: Suatu analisis gender dan disposisi matematis. Tujuan: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh gender dan disposisi matematika terhadap kemampuan pemecahan masalah geometri pada siswa SMP di Kota Bandar Lampung. Metode: Penelitian ini menggunakan metode survei dengan analisis varian dua arah. Gender dan disposisi matematika adalah variabel independen, sedangkan kemampuan pemecahan masalah geometri adalah variabel dependen. Temuan: Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada perbedaan dalam rata-rata kemampuan pemecahan masalah geometri antara siswa laki-laki dan siswa perempuan. Selanjutnya, tidak ada efek interaksi jenis kelamin dan disposisi matematika terhadap kemampuan pemecahan masalah geometri. Rata-rata kemampuan pemecahan masalah geometri siswa yang memiliki disposisi matematika tinggi lebih tinggi daripada siswa yang memiliki disposisi matematika rendah. Kesimpulan: Perbedaan kemampuan pemecahan masalah geometri terjadi pada siswa pria dan wanita.
Kata Kunci: Kemampuan pemecahan masalah, geometri, gender, disposisi matematis.
