The emphasis of mathematics learning, especially students' communication skills, needs to be considered from gender equality in solving mathematical problems. This study aims to describe: 1) the potential mathematical communication skills of students based on gender; 2) gender equality in communicating mathematical problem solving; and 3) the suitability of the form of the model or the applied form to develop students' mathematical communication skills based on gender at school. This research is a descriptive qualitative research conducted on all junior high school students in Langsa with a purposive sampling technique of 283 students. The data were collected through mathematical communication skills and questionnaire tests which were analyzed descriptively using the concept of Miles and Huberman. The results showed that: 1) mathematical communication skills of female students were better than male students in solving mathematical problems; 2) mathematical communication skills of male students are better in suburban schools and female students are better in downtown schools; and 3) learning implementation plans are still limited in emphasizing mathematical communication skills and learning tends to be cooperative and individual. It is recommended that learning plans refer to developing mathematical communication skills that pay attention to students' gender equality in order to optimize mathematical problem solving.

This study was aimed to describe the mathematical communication skill of eighth-grade students of SMP IT Insan Mulia of Batanghari based on gender in solving questions about circle material. The subjects of this study consisted of 21 male and 21 female students. The research method used is descriptive qualitative. The data collection instrument used in this study is the mathematical communication skill test. The mathematical communication skill test instrument consists of three questions in the form of an essay. The results showed that in general, the mathematical communication skills of male and female students are in a low category. The low ability of students' mathematical communication is due to a weak understanding of concepts, not understanding the usefulness of mathematical symbols, and students' unfamiliarity in working on problems. Male and female students have different mathematical communication skills. Female students have better communication skills than male students in conveying ideas to provide an explanation on each indicator of the mathematical communication skills test.

<p><em>The purpose of this study was to determine differences in students' mathematical communication skills based on gender with learning using metacognitive strategies. This research method is a quasi-experimental design using a pretest-posttest control group design. The sampling technique used was saturated sampling which consisted of 19 male students as the first experimental group and 17 female students as the second experimental group. The instrument used was in the form of a five-point essay test to measure the aspects of students' mathematical communication skills after being given a treatment, namely learning using metacognitive strategies. The pre-test mean score shows that female students are higher than male students, on the contrary, the average score of the post-test results, it is known that male students are higher. The data were analyzed using the t-test, it was concluded that there was a significant difference between the mathematical abilities of male and female students. This difference is consistent with several previous research results, although not a few studies also state that there is no significant difference between students' academic abilities based on gender.</em></p>

Mathematical representation has an important role to help students understand and solve quadrilateral problems in mathematics learning. Students will use different forms of mathematical representation to solve a quadrilateral problem. This allows that the form of mathematical representation used by male and female students is different. The purpose of this study was to describe the mathematical representation of male and female junior high school students in solving quadrilateral problems. This research is classified into descriptive qualitative research using test and interview methods. The results of this study indicate that male students use visual-spatial representations in the form of images to represent an object that is in the problem solving test. In addition, they use visual-spatial representations and formal-notational representations to reveal information about a problem. During the problem solving process, dominant male students use formal-notational representation. They also explained verbally each step of the completion in detail and in order. Dominant female students use formal-notational representation to write information and solve a problem. To represent an object in a problem solving test, they use visual-spatial representations. Female students also use verbal representations to explain each step of solving problems.Keywords: mathematical representation, quadrilateral problems, gender

One of the problems the important thing in learning Mathematics in Indonesia today is the development of students' mathematical communication skills. Communication development is one of the objectives of learning Mathematics and is one of the competency standards for Mathematics graduates. In Indonesia, the assessment of communication skills includes students' ability to present and interpret Mathematical ideas orally, in writing or in demonstration. Indicators of communication skills in written form are (1) drawing; (2) mathematical expressions; (3) written texts. Differences in gender (gender) certainly cause psychological differences in learning, so that male and female students certainly have differences in the ability to understand and communicate. The type of research used is quantitative research with a descriptive approach. The results showed that basically female students were more accurate and detailed while male students were more critical in various interpretations. There is a difference between the average scores obtained by male students and female students. This shows that the mathematical communication ability of female students is better than that of male students, with an average score of 83.1 for female students compared to an average score for male mathematical communication of 75.7 with a difference of 7.4%.

The research purpose to describe and analyze the mathematical problem solving abilities of MTs students in solving Geometry Transformation problems through Online Learning due to the Covid-19 pandemic int Indonesia. The research method used is descriptive qualitative. The subjects of this research were 3 students of MTs Al-Hamid Class IX who were selected as representatives of the very good problem-solving ability category, the problem-solving ability level category was sufficient, and the problem-solving ability level category was lacking. The data collection technique used was a test consisting of 4 non-routine items and interviews. The results of the analysis can be obtained: (1) students with excellent problem-solving abilities are able to fulfill the 4 steps of solving according to their pattern but there are errors in understanding the problem in question 1. (2) students with sufficient problem-solving skills are only able to solve problems in question 1 and 2 while 3 and 4 there are errors in understanding the questions. (3) students with poor problem solving skills were only able to solve problems in question 2, while in questions 3,4 and 5 there were errors in understanding the questions. The student error factor is due to the lack of understanding of the concept of geometric transformation to do the test because the geometric transformation test questions given are non-routine, while the geometric transformations that are often encountered only substitute formulas without understanding the concept of geometric transformation which includes translation, reflection, rotation and dilation. Many have to do with everyday life so that students experience difficulties in what is meant in the questions, especially in questions 3 and 4.
