The presented study is aimed at identifying the extent of commitment of mathematics teachers at the middle and high school levels using the quality of the achievement tests. This is performed by taking samples of the evaluation forms provided by mathematics supervisors in the education offices. It is geographically distributed in the teaching area of ​​Madinah for evaluating the questions of mathematics teachers for the academic year of 1438 /1439. 235 evaluation forms were randomly chosen from a total of 591 and all data was analyzed using SPSS program. The results of the middle school mathematics teachers showed a modest quality of the achievement tests after the analysis of the questionnaire achieving(2.03). The general framework of the test for middle school teachers was of interest to them because they obtained high arithmetic average (2.81). Moreover, high averages were obtained in specific aspects as per the following order: multiple choice questions, questions of right and wrong and essay question formats ranging from(1.18 -2.65). In contrast, other aspects showing poorer results included: pairing and filling format questions. However, the results of the high school mathematics teachers showed an average trend (2.16) in the quality of the achievement tests after analyzing the questionnaires. The general framework of the test for high school teachers was of interest to them because they also obtained a high arithmetic average (2.86). High averages obtained as per the following order: multiple choice questions, questions of right and wrong and essay question formats. Conversely, the other aspect of questions showed less significant results mainly in pairing and filling format questions (ranging 1.22-2.83).) Overall, the results indicated that there were no statistically significant differences between teachers of the two stages in the industry (significance value (α=0.05). This study included some recommendations that may improve the quality of the achievement testing specifically to mathematics teachers.

Teaching Of Mathematics

The fact that many prospective engineers are not properly prepared in mathematics has been recognized for a long time. Some mathematics teachers profess to see a steady deterioration in the quality of the high school student as he comes to the engineering college. At a conference of college and high school teachers of mathematics held in New York last year the following conclusions were drawn.

Exposure to different types of radiation is an integral part of everyday life (e.g. cosmic radiation, radon, medical applications, cell phones, etc.). Therefore, the general public should adequately be informed on the issue from an early age in order to develop a realistic understanding of the associated risks and the necessary safety culture. In this respect, the quality of the related information provided in the school textbooks is of great importance. The present work demonstrates a quantified assessment of high school textbooks regarding the information on different radiation-related topics provided to students. The assessment was carried out based on an anonymous online survey with the participation of a total of 347 high school teachers. According to the results of the survey, the high school textbooks address radiation issues in a sparse, occasional, and fragmentary manner. Moreover, the results indicate that the quality of information they provide was judged as unsatisfactory in terms of scientific correctness, completeness, clarity-comprehensiveness and objectivity. Radiation protection and applications of non-ionizing radiation are the topics that are covered to a lesser extent in the textbooks and curricula evaluated.

The activity of analyzing the items is one of the obligations for each teacher in an effort to improve the quality of the questions. However, for Civics Education teachers, this has never been done especially for questions created by the Subject Teachers' Consultation which are used for the end-semester assessment. The purpose of this study was to determine the quality of the questions based on distinguishing feature, level of difficulty, and effectiveness of the distractor. This study is an evaluation study of 50 items of  Civics Education Subject test in Banjarmasin, totaling 50 questions in the form of multiple choice questions at the end-semester test, academic year 2019/2020. The data collected are in the form of: (1) final exams question sheet, (2) question answer key sheet, and (3) students’ answer sheet. All data is obtained by documentation techniques. Data analysis uses the AnBuso version 8.0 application. The criteria for determining the quality of items are: (a) questions are considered good if the distinguishing feature is good/good enough, the level of difficulty is medium and all alternative answers are effective, (b) revision of alternative answers, if the distinguishing feature is good/good enough and the level of difficulty is medium, but the alternative there are ineffective answers, (c) good enough, if the distinguishing feature is good/good enough but the level of difficulty is easy/difficult, and (d) not good, if the distinguishing feature is not good.  The results of this study indicate that the questions used for the end-semester test at Junior High School in Banjarmasin are 50 % of poor quality.

The City

In the 2019 survey, 82.2% of teachers never participated in media training, especially learning media based on geogebra technology. Meanwhile, 92.8% of teachers stated that mathematics requires learning media. The low quality of education in NTB requires special attention from both the government and the private sector, so it is important to conduct technology-based learning media training in order to improve the quality of education, especially improving the quality of teachers. The training was carried out using offline and online methods for two days, 19 and 20 August 2021 at SMPN 16 Mataram. The training was attended by 22 participants from junior high school mathematics teachers in the city of Mataram. In the implementation of the training, an evaluation was carried out using questionnaires and observations. The conclusions from the results of the service were as follows: Geogebra training as a medium for learning mathematics for SMP teachers in the city of Mataram in 2021 received a very good response and was well received by the teachers. Geogebra training as a medium for learning mathematics for junior high school teachers in the city of Mataram in 2021 is very in line with what is expected by mathematics teachers in the City of Mataram and increases teacher competence in the context of applying technology in learning to develop technology-based mathematics learning media.
