<p class="BodyAbstract">Mathematical thinking and self-confidence are indispensable aspects of learning mathematics and are influential in solving mathematical problems. In higher education mathematics learning, advanced mathematical thinking skills are required (Advance Mathematical Thinking. Advanced mathematical thinking processes include: 1) mathematical representation, 2) mathematical abstraction, 3) connecting mathematical representation and abstraction, 4) creative thinking, and 5) mathematical proof. Discrete mathematics is one of the courses in mathematics education FKIP UNS. The problems in Discrete Mathematics courses are usually presented in the form of contextual problems. Students often experience difficulties in making mathematical expressions and mathematical abstractions from these contextual problems. In addition, students also experience difficulties in bookkeeping. Most students often prove by using examples of some real problems. Even though proof in mathematics can be obtained by deductive thinking processes or inductive thinking processes, the truth is that mathematics cannot only come from the general assumption of inductive thinking. Based on this, a qualitative descriptive study was carried out which aims to determine the advanced mathematical thinking skills based on the level of student self-confidence. Research with the research subjects of FKIP UNS Mathematics Education Students in Discrete Mathematics learning for the 2019/2020 school year gave general results that the student's ability in advanced mathematical thinking was strongly influenced by the level of student confidence in learning. The higher the student's self-confidence level, the better the student's advanced mathematical thinking ability, so that high self-confidence has a great chance of being successful in solving math problems.</p>

Mathematical thinking ability is the ability of thinking processes to think systematically, analyze arguments and come up with ideas with evidence to develop a logical mindset on what to do. This very important because students will be helped in thinking mathematically rationally in drawing conclusions and observing the problems that exist. It is also necessary to pay attention to self confidence which is the ability of students to solve existing problems. This study aims to determine the relationship between students 'mathematical critical thinking and students' self-confidence in learning mathematics for Grade IX students. This study uses quantitative research with a non-experimental approach, namely the correlation approach. The population of this study is class IX at SMP Al Madani with a sample of 21 people through the sampling technique, namely convenience sampling. Data collection techniques using observation, questionnaires, and tests. Data analysis used normality test and Pearson correlation test. Based on the research, the results obtained were 1) normality test with a significance of 0.586> 0.05, which means the data was normally distributed and 2) a correlation value of 0.520 and significant 0.016 <0.05, which means that there is a positive relationship between students' critical thinking skills and self-confidence. in mathematics learning. In other words, the higher the students 'critical thinking, the higher the students' self confidence. This can be explained also that students of SMP Al Madani have good self-confidence so that it can affect students' critical thinking skills in learning mathematics.

Several facts about learning mathematics in high school, show that students' mathematical thinking skills are still low. Therefore, there needs to be an effort to increase these variables, considering that these variables are very important in supporting students' academic achievement. This study discusses the application of a comprehensive mathematics instruction (CMI) model in mathematics learning as an effort to improve students' mathematical thinking. This research is a quasi-experimental research. The sample was taken purposively from the population of high school students in Subang Regency, West Java, Indonesia. The instruments used in the research consisted of a mathematical thinking ability test and an observation sheet. Mathematical thinking ability is built by four important aspects, namely specializing, generalizing, conjecturing and convincing. The CMI model is a learning model that accommodates three stages, namely develop, solidify and practice. Each of these stages provides the opportunity for students to develop specializing, generalizing, conjecturing and convincing aspects. The results showed that the CMI model can improve students' mathematical thinking abilities. Thus, the CMI model deserves to be used as an innovation in mathematics learning.

Mathematical Critical thinking is one of  mathematical abilities that must be obtained by students. Critical thinking is one of the high order thinking processes that can make concepts in student knowledge.  Students with critical thinking in mathematics learning mostly do rational activities such as interpreting information based on a particular theoretical framework, linking theory with practice, making claims and justifying it, utilizing data in support of argumentation, making relations or relationships between various ideas, asking questions, evaluating knowledge, predict, describe something, analyze, synthesize, and categorize. This study aims to analyze the effect of the Concept-Based Learning Model on the critical thingking mathematical abilities.The purpose of this research is to analyze the effect of Concept-Based Learning Model toward mathematics critical thinking ability. The method used in this research is quasi experiment by Randomize Control Group Post Test Only Design with cluster random sampling technique. Indicators of mathematics critical thinking skills measured in this study include providing simple explanations, building basic skills, concluding, making more explanations, and deciding an action. The results showed that the mathematics critical thinking ability of students in the experimental class for the five indicators that being analyze was higher than the ability of students in the control class. A fairly high difference in the indicator showed in give a simple explanation and concluding. and it means that the application of Concept-Based Learning Model significantly influences the  abilities  of students' mathematics critical thinking.

AbstrakTujuan dari penelitian ini adalah memberikan deskripsi mengenai pembelajaran matematika yang menerapkan strategi motivasi Green’s mampu mendorong siswa yang memiliki kemampuan rendah semangat saat pembelajaran berlangsung. Gambaran pada artikel ini berupa penjelasan yang lebih rinci dibandingkan artikel sebelumnya, karena adanya foto siswa yang memperlihatkan tanggapan positif pada saat pembelajaran matematika menggunakan strategi motivasi Green’s berlangsung. Metode pembelajaran matematika dengan strategi motivasi Green’s terdiri dari empat prinsip yaitu mengukapkan bukti dari permasalahan, tersampaikannya aspirasi tinggi, memberikan opini (komentar) dan memberikan nilai atau hadiah. Metode penelitian berupa kualitatif dasar. Hasilnya berupa pendeskripsian pembelajaran matematika dengan menerapkan Green’s Motivational Strategies merupakan gaya baru pembelajaran matematika karena dapat memunculkan motivasi dan kepercayaan diri. Oleh karena itu, pembelajaran matematika dengan menerapkan strategi motivasi Green’s perlu dipertimbangkan untuk menjadi salah satu pembelajaran matematika gaya baru khususnya pada pendidikan matematika Indonesia.  Green's Motivation Strategies, A New Style of Mathematics Learning in Low Ability Students in IndonesiaAbstractThe purpose of this study is to provide a description of mathematics learning that applies Green's motivation strategy to be able to encourage students who have low enthusiasm when learning takes place. The description in this article is a more detailed explanation than the previous article because there are photos of students who show positive responses when learning mathematics using Green's motivation strategy takes place. The mathematics learning method with Green's motivational strategy consists of four principles, namely providing evidence of the problem, conveying high aspirations, providing opinions (comments), and providing value (gifts). The research method is a basic qualitative. The result is a description of mathematics learning by applying Green's Motivational Strategies, which is a new style of learning mathematics because it can generate motivation and self-confidence. Therefore, learning mathematics by applying Green's motivational strategy needs to be considered to be a new style of mathematics learning, especially in Indonesian mathematics education.
