Teaching Ideas

Many high school teachers have concerns about their students' ability to apply mathematical skills to other disciplines and situations. Some teachers believe that students should not “learn math in a vacuum.” One way to enhance students' understanding of the concepts learned in mathematics class is to apply mathematical skills to other subject areas, especially science and technology.

Education Today

One of the focuses of education today is assessment oriented to the higher-order thinking skills. This skill encourages students could be able to think critically, analytically, systematically, particularly in the context of problem-solving, communicating, and collaborating with peers. However, not all educators have been able to construct the items test based on the skill needed. The purpose of this community service is to provide the knowledge related to the construction of item tests that oriented to the higher-order thinking skills of 45 Senior High School teachers. The methods used to achieve this objective were lecture, question answer, discussion, and presentation. The result showed the trainees understood the nature of the construction of the test-oriented to the higher-order thinking skill in the learning process. From the four meetings done, the trainees could be able to classify and construct the tests oriented to the lower-order thinking skill, medium-order thinking skill, and higher-order thinking skill.

Mathematical Misconceptions

The need for developing students' higher order thinking skills is the main indicator in the application of HOTS-based questions in high school mathematics learning. The results of the implementation have not shown satisfactory results. The high level thinking ability of students in Indonesia in Mathematics is still very low. Therefore, a HOTS-based diagnostic test is needed which is able to detect the mathematical misconceptions of high school students as the aim of this study. Based on the research objectives, the method of this study is a qualitative method with research design using the Plomp model research design. The subjects of this study were several students and teachers at a school in Cirebon Regency. The results showed that four HOTS questions could be developed based on three aspects, namely, arithmetic, algebra, and geometry. The problem was developed to detect three forms of misconception, namely, theoretical, classification, and correlational misconceptions. The four questions that have been developed were assessed through the readability test of students and teachers, and CVR and CVI tests were carried out on eight mathematics teachers with valid results. Based on these results it can be concluded that the HOTS questions developed can be implemented for students to detect forms of mathematical misconceptions of high school students.

Teaching Ideas

In studying algebra, a segment of the number line is inevitably related to a system of inequalities in one variable. Similarly, a convex region of the plane is inevitably related to a system of inequalities in two variables. Indeed, we drew this unsurprising conclusion from a questionnaire that we gave to a group of high school teachers and a large group of advanced twelfth graders. In the questionnaire, we simply asked what kind of mathematical expression is needed to determine the points in a line segment and in a triangular region.
