This research aims to identify errors and misconceptions of prospective mathematics teacher students in the SPLDV material. This study uses a qualitative research design. Research data was collected from 15 micro teaching students in the sixth semester of UNP Padang, using test questions and interview guidelines The SPLDV test questions prepared include the concept of SPLDV with infinite solutions and SPLDV with exactly one solution. The results of the study indicate that there are a number of errors and misconceptions of the material. Identified student errors are conceptual errors, namely mistakes made by students because they do not understand the SPLDV concept properly. Strategic error, which is an error that occurs because students choose the wrong way to do it. Calculate errors, namely errors in performing mathematical operations. Systematic error, which is an error regarding the wrong selection of extrapolation techniques. The interview results show the causes of misconceptions experienced by students, namely ignorance, language errors, film shows, thinking skills, family background, parallel conceptions, and initial student misconceptions.Keywords: Misconception, SPLDV, Mathematics

This study aims to describe the algebraic thinking profile of prospective mathematics teacher students according to the SOLO taxonomy. The research was conducted at the Nusantara University PGRI Kediri. The research subjects were students who are prospective mathematics teachers with moderate or average abilities. Subjects are selected based on course scores and information from several lecturers who are teaching the subject. Besides that, the willingness and openness of the subject is also a consideration for choosing this subject. The instrument used in this study was a matter of algebraic problems. The method used is a qualitative method which refers to the written test and interview. The questions that are done consist of tests of algebra problems for pattern components and algebra problem tests for variable components. The results showed that students of prospective mathematics teachers with moderate mathematical abilities met the indicators of algebraic thinking, namely being able to find certain terms in a given pattern but were unable to generalize the given pattern and could not understand variables as general form numbers in algebraic form.

Pedagogical content knowledge (PCK) is one of the important elements in improving students' understanding because teachers are required to master teaching materials or subject matter (content) and master teaching knowledge (pedagogic). As a prospective mathematics teacher, students are also required to have PCK skills. This research is a qualitative descriptive type that aims to analyze the ability of PCK prospective mathematics teacher students who take microteaching courses as a prerequisite for conducting PPL activities in schools. The subjects of this study were 34 mathematics education students taking microteaching subjects in the 2015/2016 school year. The results showed that prospective mathematics teacher students have been able to coordinate and arrange all parts of the lesson plan properly, especially in terms of systematics. This means that they have good knowledge about the curriculum, understand students according to their level of knowledge in secondary schools and know how to evaluate. The results of the description of the implementation of the learning process, found that students are still lacking in teaching knowledge and about content, have not been able to do learning in accordance with what has been designed and are not able to understand well how to present the material according to learning strategies in the lesson plan. PCK students in the learning process still has many shortcomings, especially in the content, teaching and students. Students understand the concepts or teaching material but are less able to explain. Plans and implementation must be in harmony so that PCK's capabilities are more leverage.Kata Kunci: Mathematics, Microteaching, PCK

Abstract. Positive affectivity (PA) and negative affectivity (NA) are basic traits that affect work-related perceptions and behaviors and should be considered in any assessment of these variables. A quite common method to assess healthy or unhealthy types of work-related perceptions and behaviors is the questionnaire on Work-Related Coping Behavior and Experience Patterns (WCEP). However, the association of PA and NA with WCEP remained unclear. In a sample of teachers, physiotherapists, and teacher students ( N = 745; Mage = 35.07, SD = 12.49; 78% females), we aimed to identify the relevance of these basic traits. After controlling for age, gender, and type of occupation, we found main effects of PA and NA, with the specific combination of PA and NA being decisive for predicting the assignment to a WCEP type. The results highlight the need to include PA and NA in future assessments with the WCEP questionnaire.
