Definition Of

Asesmen Kompetensi Minimum (AKM) or Minimum Competency Assessment has different objectives and formats compared to Ujian Nasional (National Exam), therefore teachers need to upgrade their knowledge of assessment instruments that measure students’ numeracy skills. This training aims to develop teachers' professionalism and competence in developing numeracy assessment instruments. The training was carried out online through a Zoom Meeting with participants of 29 junior high school mathematics teachers in Bogor Regency, West Java. The training was delivered in 2 sessions by 2 mathematics education lecturers from Universitas Negeri Jakarta. The first session with topics of AKM discussed the material domain, cognitive level, and the form of the questions on the AKM questions. The second session was with topics of numeracy skills discussed the benefits and the definition of numeracy skills. At the end of the training, participants were assigned to make a numeracy assessment instrument within 1 week. Participants and presenters join WhatsApp groups as a forum for discussion in the process of doing assignments. This training activity produces an output in the form of a numeracy assessment instrument that is developed based on the AKM question format. Participants are motivated and have ideas to develop numeracy assessment instruments.

Helping junior high school students to use calculators and computers for problem solving and investigating real-life situations is an objective of the junior high school mathematics curriculum in Ghana. Ironically, there is a technological drought in junior high school mathematics instruction in Ghana, with a suspicion that mathematics teachers’ competency in the use of calculators for teaching may be the source of this lack of use. This study sought to establish a correlation between junior high school mathematics teachers’ competence and the motivation supporting the use of calculators in teaching.  A descriptive survey comprising of a test and questionnaire was used to collect data from junior high school mathematics teachers in an educational district in Ghana. Teacher characteristics such as educational attainment, age, and gender in relation to teachers’ competency in the use of calculators were discussed in the study. The results showed that about 70% of the teachers exhibited a low level of calculator competence. Besides, novice teachers outperformed expert teachers in the calculator competency-based test. Additionally, mathematics teachers’ enthusiasm for using calculators in teaching was directly associated with the teachers’ level of competency. The findings may send a signal to stakeholders in their efforts to revising the Ghana JHS curriculum in order to actualize the curriculum desire for the integration of technology in the teaching and learning of JHS mathematics.

The Subject

Higher order thinking skills is very important in the 2013 curriculum. This 2013 curriculum emphasizes the ability of reasoning for concepts. This ability involves a high cognitive level from Bloom’s taxonomy, C4-C6. One example in improving students HOTS is to develop assessment instruments HOTS. This type research is research and development (R&D) research with using the 4D models. This research develop an assessment instrument in the form of multiple choice. In this research, the object is assessment instrument HOTS on respiration system content. The subject of this research were two lectures major in Biology, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences UNP. The result of validation show an average value of 87.91 with a valid category. This shows of assessment instrument HOTS on respiration system content is valid among in terms of the feasibility aspects of content, construction, language, and the cognitive level of the assessment instruments is at a HOTS.

Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan mendeskripsikan hambatan guru matematika SMP dalam mengimplementasikan Kurikulum 2013. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif eksploratif dengan pendekatan kualitatif. Data dikumpulkan dengan teknik wawancara dan focus group discussion. Sumber data adalah 10 guru mata pelajaran matematika SMP di Provinsi Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta. Analisis data dilakukan dengan mencari tema, kemudian menentukan hubungan antartema untuk memeroleh pemahaman. Hasil penelitian sebagai berikut. Pertama, pelatihan dan sosialisasi belum dapat memberikan pemahaman yang baik dan menyeluruh mengenai Kurikulum 2013. Kedua, guru kesulitan mengatur waktu pada perencanaan pembelajaran, merencanakan pembelajaran, merencanakan penilaian sikap, dan memilah pengetahuan dan keterampilan pada penyusunan instrumen penilaian. Ketiga, keterbatasan waktu dalam pelaksanaan pembelajaran, kesulitan berkaitan dengan perangkat pembelajaran, dan kesulitan mengaktifkan siswa. Keempat, sistem penilaian yang rumit dan perlu waktu yang lama untuk menyusun laporan. Kata Kunci: hambatan guru matematika SMP, implementasi kurikulum baru THE OBSTACLES OF JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL MATHEMATICS TEACHERS IN IMPLEMENTING THE NEW CURRICULUM Abstract: The study was to describe the obstacles of junior high school mathematics teachers in implementing the new curriculum, namely Curriculum 2013, in most of junior high schools in Indonesia. The study was a descriptive explorative research by means of qualitative approach. The data were gathered by means of interviews and focus group discussions. The data source was 10 junior high school mathematics teachers in the Province of Yogyakarta Special Region, Indonesia. The data were analyzed by looking for the themes and finding the relationship among the themes in order to gain the proper understanding. The results of the study showed that the obstacles that the teachers were as follows. First, the socialization and training programs had not been able to provide good and through understanding of the new curriculum. Second, the teachers had difficulties in arranging the time for the lesson plan, the teaching plan, the attitude assessment plan and the categorization between the knowledge and the skills in the composition of assessment instrument. Third, the implementation of the lesson plan had limited time in addition to the difficulties in designing the teaching kits and in activating the students. Forth, the assessment system was intricated and time consuming especially in the reporting process. Keywords: obstacles of junior high school mathematics teachers, implementing new curriculum

<span>Competence in research is an attractive feature that should be established for all practitioners because specialists with training and expertise in research will recognize strategic thinking, interpretation, and synthesizing more easily. Hence, this study aimed to describe the knowledge competency among junior high school mathematics teachers on the research processes applied on the contents of the various sections of a quantitative research paper. The descriptive method of research has been used to characterize the knowledge competence of 108 junior high school teachers on the research processes. The study used the research skill test, which was a researcher-made instrument, consisting of 50 multiple choice items with four choices each. The instrument went through the process of validity and reliability analysis obtaining a good result of 0.81. This study revealed that they were “novice” or had achieved the learning level of competency on the research processes applied on the contents of the different parts of a quantitative research paper. More so, they identified that interpretation of statistical results was a challenging part of doing a research paper.</span>
