Problem posing is a learning approach that trains students to be able to process and communicate mathematical problems based on information obtained. This study aims to describe the ability of high school students to pose problems on the topic of system of linear equations in two variables (SLETV). This study used a quantitative descriptive study involving 60 high school students in the East Surabaya area. The results showed that students were able to submit 60 problems, consisting of 54 problems can be categorized and 6 problems could not be categorized. Based on the semantic structure of mathematics, 17 students (31.48%) were able to pose problems using 1-relationship, 13 students (24.07%) were able to pose problems using 2-relationships, 13 students (24.07%) were able to raise problems using 3-relationships, and 11 students (20.37%) were able to pose problems using 4-relationships. Based on language structure (syntax), 13 students (24.07%) were able to pose problems using assignment propositions, as many as 17 students (31.48%) were able to pose problems using relationship propositions, and 14 students (25.93%) were able pose a problem using a presupposition proposition.

This research is descriptive research that aims to describe how the ability of students' mathematical literacy in solving mathematical problems in the PISA model uses the Palembang context. The research subjects were 10th class in senior high school students. The data collection techniques used are written tests, observations, and interviews. The third technique is used to find out what mathematical abilities that arise when students work on mathematical problems in the PISA model using the Palembang context. There are seven mathematical abilities that emerge, such as 84% communication skills; 88,63% mathematical abilities; 100% representation ability; 68,21% reasoning and argument skills; 86,35% ability to choose strategies to solve problems; 70,45% ability to use symbolic, formal language, and techniques and operations; and 68,17% ability to use mathematics tools so that it can be concluded that the 10th class in senior high school students, who were the subjects of the study had mathematical literacy skills that were good enough.

This research aims to identify class XI MIPA1 senior high school students, who experience misconceptions on the kinetic theory of gas. The method used to determine students who experience misconceptions is the Certainty Response Index (IRK) method. This method has four indexes in identifying students' mastery of concepts, namely lucky guess (LG), not knowing concept (NKC/TTK), knowing concept (KC/TK), and misconception (M). The subjects of the study were senior high school students in class XI MIPA1 in Tasik Malaya. The research instrument used was a kinetic theory of gas test equipped with an IRK scale assessment instrument. This research is a quantitative descriptive research that can determine weaknesses in understanding students' physics concepts with the IRK method. The results of data analysis using IRK revealed that students who experienced lucky guess (LG) were 9.0%, students who knew the concept (TK) were 35.2%, students who lacked knowledge or did not know the concept (TTK) were 21.9%, and students experiencing misconceptions (M) of 33.8%. Based on the sub-topic analysis, the level of misconception the results are also in the high category. Thus it was concluded that through the IRK method it was identified that most students were still experiencing misconceptions, did not know the concepts, and were lucky guessed in understanding the kinetic theory of gas in the class XI MIPA1 of senior high school in Tasik Malaya.

Learning is the primary task of every student. However, there are many factors responsible for the success or failure such as anxiety, which is the unpleasant feeling of worry, concern, and fear. Therefore this study aims to measure students' anxiety levels in learning and determine efforts to overcome this condition. This is a quantitative descriptive study, with data collected from 192 students using anxiety instruments. The results showed that most students' anxiety levels were in the normal category,  this is because the majority chooses to confide in their close friends.

The research aim is to observe the profile and description of thecharacter education in senior high school students. study was conducted in six Senior high schools of city consisting of: State Senior high school 1 of ; State Senior high school 2 of ; Muhammadiyah Senior high school of ; Mudmainah Senior high school of ; Catholic Senior high school St. of ; specifically class X of social science, with a sample of 300 students. Data collection methods used were questionnaires and interviews, and then analyzed using qualitative and quantitative descriptive analysis. The results showed that the profile and description of the pluralism character education patterns quality in six senior high schools of city were very good category with intervals value of 80-100 %. The data shows that the quality of pluralism character education patterns is very good, with the pluralism character education pattern applied to senior high school students through exemplary teacher, religious approach, individual, and nationality.

isomorphic and conventional to open-ended can reflect students' learning difficulties on kinematic's graphs. This study used a quantitative descriptive form of survey research. The respondents were twenty-nine senior high school students from Semarang. The instruments were adopted from the Test of Understanding Graphs-Kinematic (TUG-K) by Robert J.Beichner (1994). There were nine questions used from the TUG-K with open-ended questions that have been validated. The results show that students have difficulties learning about kinematic's graphs, and there is no relation between open-ended scores and the other two scores. Nonetheless, judging from the correlation coefficient, the correlation between open-ended and conventional tasks is 0.075, which means low correlation, while for isomorphic score and open-ended score in the amount of 0.109 is higher than the correlation of traditional and open-ended. This correlation is insignificant. However, the closest correlation direction to the open-ended test is isomorphic compared to the conventional one. Therefore, it is concluded that isomorphic assessment is more useful than traditional review in kinematic graphics.
