Teachers Beliefs

This study examines prospective teachers beliefs in their own abilities and effectiveness to impart mathematical literacy to their students, their beliefs about mathematical problem solving, and the relationship between these two belief systems. A total of 567 prospective teachers, majoring in mathematics, science and elementary teacher education programs volunteered to participate in the study. The Self-Efficacy Beliefs Scale about Mathematical Literacy and the Beliefs about Mathematical Problem solving instruments were administered to prospective teachers. Results of the study revealed that there was a significant relationship between the beliefs about mathematical problem solving and self-efficacy. Findings of this study indicated that prospective teachers beliefs about mathematical literacy were an important predictor on the beliefs about mathematical problem solving.

The Relationship

This research aims to analyze the relationship between student self-efficacy and mathematical problem solving ability. The research was conducted in class XI at one of the Vocational High Schools in Ciamis. The instrument used in this research was a test of mathematical problem solving ability and self-efficacy scale questionnaire. Data analysis using correlation analysis with Spearman Rank correlation. The results showed that there was a relationship between students' self-efficacy with students' mathematical solving ability

This study aims to 1) Produce the valid, practical, and effective of Realistic Mathematics Education based learning tools; 2) Analyzing the improvement of students' mathematical problem solving ability that are learned using Realistic Mathematics Education-based learning tools; and 3) Analyzing the achievement of students' self-efficacy who are taught using Realistic Mathematics Education-based learning tools. The subjects in this study were seventh grade students of Junior High School 1 Lubuk Pakam. Data collection instruments in this development are assessment instruments to assess the products that have been developed. In addition, students were given questionnaires to get data about students' Self-Efficacy. This research is Research and Development with the design of learning development models by Dick and Carey. The steps include: 1) Conducting preliminary research; 2) Making software design; 3) Collecting the materials; 4) Developing the contextual based interactive multimedia; 5) Product reviews and trials; and 6) the effectiveness of product test. The results showed Realistic Mathematics Education-based learning tools on students' mathematical problem solving ability increased from trial I to trial II with an average increase per indicator of 0.35%; 3.99%; 16.22% and 8.32%. The developed learning tool has fulfilled the effective criteria, namely the mastery learning of students classically in the first trial has reached a good category and in the second trial has reached a very good category; the achievement of student learning goals during learning activities meet the ideal criteria specified; student responses is positive to the components of learning tools and learning activities developed; and the allocation of ideal time usage.

Ability And Willingness

Mathematical problem solving ability is surely the must-have any students in doinga math problem that is abstract. But many of the students who have not been able to use the problem-solving ability in doing a math problem. Many of them assumed that mathematics is a difficult lesson, and it usually requires a high concentration oflearning math. So the efficacy of self (self efficacy) is in need of students to cope with these problems. Self-efficacy (self efficacy) refers to the belief that relates to the ability and willingness of a student to achieve and complete tasks and results of the study with the target time has been determined and self efficacy refers to the consideration of how big someone's beliefs about their ability to perform a number of learning activities and their ability to complete tasks. Students who have a good self-efficacy will be successful in theirlearning activities andcanperform academic duties smoothly likewise viceversa if the efficacy in low students then have students will quickly give up on any problems in dealing with. Hence the need for self-efficacy so that arise from the student is either the later will provide confidence in the ability of students in solving mathematical problems.
