Mathematics Self Efficacy

Abstract: Self Efficacy in Mathematics and in Mathematics Teaching among Junior High-school Teachers. This study investigates teachers’ self efficacy in mathematics and in mathematics teaching, involving 38 junior high school mathematics teachers in the city of Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The research instrument to measure self efficacy in mathematics consists of 18 questions with a reliability coefficient of .86, whereas the one to measure mathematics-teaching self efficacy consists of 18 statements with a reliability coefficient of .826. Both instruments were adapted from the Mathematics Teaching and Mathematics Self-Efficacy Scale (MTMSE) developed by Kahle (2008). The results show that mathe­matics self efficacy and teaching mathematics self efficacy of the junior high school mathematics teach­ers in the city of Yogyakarta are high, with a correlation coefficient of .477. The mathematics self-efficacy instrument consists of three parts, namely arithmetics, algebra, and geometrics, and arithmetic self-efficacy is found to be positively correlated with teaching mathematics self-efficacy with a multiple correlation coefficient of 0,605.Abstrak: Self-Efficacy Matematika dan Self-Efficacy Mengajar Matematika Guru Matematika SMP Kota Yogyakarta. Self-efficacy matematika adalah konsep diri terkait kepercayaan individu pada kemampuannya untuk melakukan atau menyelesaikan suatu tugas atau masalah matematika. Self-efficacy mengajar matematika merupakan keyakinan seorang guru terhadap kemampuannya untuk mengatur dan melaksanakan tindakan pembelajaran matematika demi mencapai suatu tujuan serta yakin mampu untuk menghadapi segala tantangan dan mampu memprediksi seberapa besar usaha yang dibu­tuhkan untuk mencapai tujuan yang tepat dalam pembelajaran matematika. Penelitian tentang self-efficacy matematika self-efficacy mengajar matematika telah dilakukan ter­hadap 38 guru matematika SMP di kota Yogyakarta. Instrumen penelitian terdiri dari dua bagian. Pertama adalah instrumen self-efficacy matematika yang terdiri dari 18 petanyaan dengan koefisien reliabilitas sebesar 0,860. Kedua adalah instrumen self-efficacy mengajar matematika yang terdiri dari 18 pernyataan dengan koefisien reliabilitas sebesar 0,826. Kedua intrumen tersebut diadaptasi dari Mathematics Teaching and Mathe­matics Self-Efficacy Scale (MTMSE) yang dikembangkan oleh Kahle (2008). Hasil penelitian menunjuk­kan bahwa self-efficacy matematika dan self-efficacy mengajar matematika guru SMP di kota Yogya­karta termasuk tinggi dengan koefisien korelasi antara keduanya sebesar 0,477. Instrumen self-efficacy matematika terdiri dari tiga bagian yaitu aritmatika, aljabar, dan geometrika.

Some teachers feel that the method of pupil discovery in teaching mathematics is too slow, too time consuming. Often, however, when the teacher merely “covers” the material of a course, it is found that what he thinks has been taught remains hazy and only partially revealed to the pupil.

The goal of the research is to gain insights into the characteristics of the items in the mathematics national examination, the attributes on which the items were formulated and the result of a conceptual error diagnosis of the mathematics materials based on the result of the junior high school mathematics national examination. This is quantitative descriptive research. The data were collected from 3,079 grade-nine students of junior high schools who took the National Examination in the academic year of 2015/2016. The sample was established randomly based on the package code of the examination which is P0C5520 with 574 students as the examinees. Documentation method was applied in collecting the data. The result of the research shows that – upon the implementation of the classical test theory – there are 16 items in ‘difficult’ category, 24 in ‘intermediate’ category, and no items in ‘easy’ category. Furthermore, upon the implementation of the item response theory, the result shows that 28 items are in ‘good’ category and 12 items are in ‘poor’ category. In addition, there are 50 attributes on which the Junior High School Mathematics National Examination test (package P0C520) is formulated. Four attributes are content attributes and the rest (46) are process skill attributes. The result of the diagnosis shows that there are 11 types of errors made by the students when trying to complete the content items. Most of the errors are conceptual errors related to the geometric materials especially in the sub-materials of polyhedron, triangles, and quadrangles.
