This article was prepared based on qualitative research, case studied with research subjects 36 undergraduate students of mathematics education study program FMIPA UNNES in elementary linear algebra. Intended to find out students’ problem solving abilities aspects of algebraic creative thinking and to describe connections between aspects of students creative thinking in solving problems. Aspects of creative thinking include: fluency, flexibility, novelty, and elaboration. Data obtained through tests, observations, and interviews. Based on the analysis of the test results, as many as 17 students reached the minimal criteria which is at least 61, and 15 students worth under 61. This indicates that many students had difficulty in solving problems of elementary linear algebra that contain aspects of creative thinking.

Penilaian kemampuan anak usia 15 tahun secara global sudah dilakukan melalui PISA. Pembelajaran guna meningkatkan kemampuan yang diujikan PISA sudah sering dilakukan lebih dari satu dekade yang lalu. Hasil dari upaya-upaya tersebut tidak saja terlihat setelah mereka berusia di atas 15 tahun tetapi juga setelah mereka dewasa. Penilaian untuk mereka yang telah dewasa dilakukan melalui PIAAC. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan kemampuan orang-orang dewasa dalam menyelesaikan masalah yang berhubungan dengan lingkungan kaya teknologi. Peneliti memberikan soal-soal kepada mahasiswa semester 2 Program Studi Pendidikan Matematika STKIP Muhammadiyah OKU Timur yang berjumlah 16 orang. Soal-soal yang diberikan menuntut penggunaan kemampuan kemampuan mengakses, menginterpretasikan, dan menganalisis informasi yang ditemukan, mentransformasikan dan mengomunikasikan di dalam lingkungan digital. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif kualitatif. Peneliti mengumpulkan lembar jawaban mahasiswa dalam bentuk file yang dikirim melalui aplikasi Whatsapp. Peneliti menganalisis hasil kerja mahasiswa dan membandingkan dengan beberapa alternatif solusi pada soal tersebut. Diperoleh hasil yaitu 1 mahasiswa menjawab menggunakan ICT, 5 mahasiswa yang menjawab tidak menggunakan ICT, 3 mahasiswa menjawab tidak tepat dan sisanya tidak menjawab. A global assessment of the ability of 15 year olds has been carried out through PISA. Learning to improve the abilities tested by PISA has often been carried out more than a decade ago. The results of these efforts are not only seen after they are over 15 years old but also after they grows up. Assessment for adults is done through the PIAAC. This study aims to describe the ability of adults to solve problems related to technology-rich environments. The researcher gave questions to the second semester students of the Mathematics Education Study Program of STKIP Muhammadiyah OKU Timur, totaling 16 people. The questions given require the use of the ability to access, interpret, and analyze the information found, transformed and communicated in a digital environment. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The researcher collected student answer sheets in the form of files sent via the Whatsapp application. The researcher analyzed the students' work and compared it with several alternative solutions to the problem.

The number theory is the first mathematics content course in the UPH FIP Mathematics Education study program, which does not have a response class. The response class was conducted as a companion to four content subjects with close relations with school mathematics content, namely Calculus 1, Calculus 2, Geometry, and Linear Algebra. Based on the questionnaire that has been distributed, prospective mathematics teachers consider that the response class is beneficial for them in attending lectures and in exploring related mathematical concepts. However, on the other hand, students inevitably have to go back to learning to be determined with the response class. The implication is that students' self-regulated learning will not develop optimally. However, self-regulated learning is an essential aspect that prospective teachers need to have. This research was conducted to see how self-regulated learning of future mathematics teachers in number theory courses. The research instruments used are questionnaires, the scale of self-regulated learning, and interviews. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The results of this study are that most students have a moderate level of learning independence. The aspects or indicators of learning independence that need special attention are setting learning goals/targets. Prospective teacher students need to continue to train and develop their learning independence to become professional teachers who continue to develop along with the times.

For Mathematics Education Study Program, Mathematics of Economics is a subject where Mathematics is applied in Economics. In this course, mathematical concepts and theories which have been studied in the previous semesters have to be applied in Economics that is new for the students. For this kind of subject, the lecturer has to be more creative in the class so that the lesson will be more interesting and understandable. The aim of this research is to know the improvement of learning motivation in Mathematics of Economics through the use of multimedia development using Visual Basic for Application (VBA) in the class. This multimedia is presented in the form of a game in Microsoft PowerPoint (PPt) program. Respondents of this study were 34 students of class A in the fourth semester of Mathematics Education study program of Teacher Training and Education Faculty at Universitas Islam Malang who were taking this course. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with data collection techniques using observation and interview techniques. The observation sheet and the interview guidelines used here are arranged based on indicators measuring learning motivation. The result shows that the use of multimedia development with VBA can improve the students’ learning motivation to study Mathematics of Economics. The recalling of mathematical concepts and theories which have been studied before can be more interesting in the form of a game, while the new Economics concepts and theories with the mathematical application inside can be understood easily in the form of competition that enhances the motivation.

Trigonometry, a discipline in mathematics, is often misunderstood by mathematics learners. To understand Trigonometry, students should start learning from understanding Mathematical concepts. Therefore, this study aims to analyze students' understanding of concepts in the Trigonometry course. This research is a qualitative descriptive study of the first semester students' conceptual understanding of the mathematics education study program at a university in Malang City. The data collected in this study consisted of the subject's work and transcripts of interviews. The instrument used in this study consisted of 6 questions about understanding the concept of trigonometric material. Analysis of the subject's work results is carried out to find out the right or wrong answers. Meanwhile, the interview transcripts were analyzed by coding to determine the factors that support conceptual understanding. The results showed that students with good conceptual understanding could solve trigonometric problems, while students with less understanding of concepts had difficulty solving trigonometric problems. The results of this study also found aspects that influence (encourage and inhibit) students in understanding the concept of trigonometry. Furthermore, this research is expected to contribute to trigonometry subjects' learning based on indicators of conceptual understanding in the Trigonometry course.
