The ability to solve mathematics problems is an ability needed in the learning process. Mathematic anxiety and student learning styles are among the factors that influence the success of mathematics problem-solving ability. By paying attention to mathematics anxiety and learning styles possessed by students, it is expected that the ability to solve mathematics problems will increase. This research is a field research type with an Ex Post Facto method and multiple linear regression statistical data analysis techniques. Data was collected through mathematics anxiety questionnaires, student learning style questionnaires, and mathematics problem-solving skills of students at Madrasah Aliyah level. The results show that (1) there is no significant effect of mathematics anxiety on the ability to solve mathematics problems with the tcount is 1.537 and the significance level is 0.126 ≥ 0.05. (2) there is a positive and significant effect of learning styles on the ability to solve mathematics problems with the value of tcount is 2.457 and a significance level of 0.015 <0.05.

Problem-solving skill is required by students and a target in studying mathematics. However, the problem-solving skill of Indonesian students are lacking. One effort that can be done is applying the Model of Learning Cycle 5E.  This research discussed the influence of the implementation of the learning cycle model on mathematics problem-solving skill viewed from students’ adversity quotient. This research used a quantitive approach, quasi-experimental study. The subjects were the 8th Grade students of SMP IT Ash-Shiddiiqi Jambi, consisting of two experiment classes and one control class. The instruments were post-test and adversity quotient questionnaire modified by Stoltz and had been validated by experts. Data analysis was conducted by Two-Way ANOVA. The results showed that there was no interaction between the learning cycle 5E model and mathematics problem-solving skill. This finding indicates that the model of learning cycle 5E affects problem-solving skills and can be applied to students with all types of adversity quotient.

<pre><em><span lang="EN-US">The research is aimed to know; 1) interaction of inquiry learning  method application and discussion on communication ability and student’s mathematics  problem solving skills on multivariate. 2) the impacts of learning method on mathematics communication ability on univariat.3) the impacts of learning method on mathematics problem solving skills on univariat. This research is false experiment used non equivalent control group design with 2 factors  measurement technique. The instrument is essay test (problem solving and communication question). This research was conducted at public SMP in Palmerah distric, west Jakarta. The sample is the students of class VIII about 140 students. Data analyze used MANOVA analysis. The result of this research is: 1) there are significant impacts of learning method on communication ability and mathematics problem solving skills on multivariate. 2) there are significant impacts of learning method on mathematics communication ability on univariat 3) there isn’t significant impact of learning method on mathematics problem solving skill.</span></em></pre>

This context based Mathematics problem solving has been shown to have direct efforts on students’ bearing. This study compares the cognitive and affective effects of the Context-Based and Traditional approach on voc-tech students from the two programs. Quantitative data were collected using a Pretest and Posttest examination in mathematics problem solving to assess the levels of students’ problem solving performance and an attitude, beliefs and confidence (A-B-C) questionnaire to assess the voc-tech students’ attitude, belief and confidence. For qualitative analysis, the students’ journals, interview responses, and the teacher−observers’ and raters’ notes and comments were analyzed. The results showed that the students have a very low analytic level and limited content knowledge in mathematics prior the intervention. However, the context-based approach enhanced the students’ problem solving skills as exhibited by the numerically higher scores and improvement in the quality of the experimental class’ solutions and responses to the problem solving posttest. After the treatment, statistical tests revealed that the contextbased approach had a significant effect on the voc-tech students on certain topics of mathematics in terms of approach, program and ability level. Results also revealed that the experimental group showed a significant improvement in their attitude and beliefs in mathematics problem solving compared to their counterparts in the control group. Comparing the posttest results by program, the BS students are significantly higher than the BIT students in their overall problem solving scores as well as the BIT and BS students in the experimental class.   Keywords - Mathematics, context based, Mathematics problem solving, attitude, belief, confidence, Voc-tech students, Iloilo, Philippines

<p><em>The benefit of this research is to analyze the Impacts of Generative Learning Model on Mathematics problem Solving Skills. The method used in this research is experiment through t test. To collect the data about generative learning model, the writer used her idea, scientific books, scientific journals, internet and others documents. The research was conducted on the students of class VII H and VII G at Public SMP in  west Cikarang. The sample is about 60 students. Before using generative learning model’s instruments, they was validated and past reability test. After that the writer  done normality test through chi kuadrat test and homogeneity test through fisher test. Based on the research,  t test ? t table (2.21 ? 1.697). it  means there are significant impacts of Generative learning model on Mathematics problem solving. It can be concluded that there are significant impacts of Generative Learning Model on Mathematics problem Solving Skills.</em></p>
