Penalaran matematis menggunakan pola pikir logis dalam menganalisa suatu masalah yang nanti pada akhirnya akan ditandai dengan aktivitas menyimpulkan atas masalah tersebut. Seseorang yang memiliki penalaran yang baik, tentunya akan berhati-hati dalam bertindak dan memutuskan sesuatu. Materi-materi pada kalkulus merupakan materi yang ada pada tingkat sekolah menengah yang nantinya menjadi lahan mengajar mahasiswa calon guru matematika S-1. Kemampuan penalaran yang dikaji mempengaruhi pembelajaran mahasiswa kedepannya karena berlaku pada matakuliah lanjut, contohnya pada kemampuan pembuktian akan selalu digunakan pada matakuliah persamaan diferensial, struktur aljabar, analisis  vektor, analisis real, dll. Sedangkan sebagai calon guru yang nantinya mengajar pada tingkat sekolah menengah, maka kemampuan penalaran ini menjadi salah satu capaian pembelajaran matematika bagi siswa sekolah menengah, maka oleh karena itu guru yang mengajarnya haruslah memiliki kemampuan penalaran yang baik. Analisis kesalahan sangat penting untuk melakukan evaluasi dan refleksi pada struktur soal maupun pada perlakuan dalam pembelajaran dalam upaya memperbaiki kemampuan penalarannya.   Mathematical reasoning uses a logical mindset in analyzing a problem that will eventually be marked by concluding activity on the problem. Someone who has good reason, will certainly be careful in acting and deciding something. The material content on the calculus is the material that exists at the secondary school level which will become the field of teaching the prospective master of math teacher bachelor. The reasoning ability studied influences student learning in the future as it applies to advanced courses, for example in the ability of proof will always be used in the course of differential equations, algebraic structure, vector analysis, real analysis, etc. While as a teacher candidate who will teach at the secondary school level, then this reasoning ability becomes one of the achievements of mathematics learning for high school students, therefore teachers who teach it must have good reasoning ability. Error analysis is very important to evaluate and reflect on the problem structure as well as on the treatment in learning in order to improve the reasoning ability.

If you don’t use it, you lose it. School breaks, during which students do not regularly participate in instruction, can therefore have negative consequences on learning. This is especially true for mathematics learning since skills build progressively on earlier materials. How can we bridge these gaps in formal instruction? The Keeping in School Shape (KiSS) program is a mobile, engaging, innovative, and cost-effective way of using technology to help students who have time off between related math courses stay fresh on prerequisite knowledge and skills. Founded on learning theory and designed on a model of behavioral change, the KiSS program embodies retrieval practice and nudges by sending students a daily multiple-choice review problem via text messaging over school break. After rating their confidence in solving the daily problem students receive feedback and a solution. This study explores measures of participation, accuracy, and confidence in an implementation of the KiSS program over winter break between two sequential introductory engineering courses at a large state university in the Southwest United States. Results indicate that careful attention should be paid to the construction of the first few days of the program, and that encouragement, additional resources for review and practice, and an increased breadth of problem difficulty may improve participation.

AbstractObjective – Study aims to portrait how changes in accounting education should start with ac-counting educators’ consciousness and how to trigger this consciousness. Design/methodology – This study offers alternative perspective to enhance accounting education through educators’ consciousness. This study took place in ACURA that was established in May 1986 in Surabaya by a group of public state university lecturers. By employing a qualitative approach namely dramaturgical interventionism study in a private university, the changes of accounting lecturers consciousness were observed and presented. Results – It is found that educators’ consciousness is necessary to change the course of accounting education to be geared for civilization. The most important trait that an accounting education has is a continuously critically conscious (3C) character.  However, the critical consciousness is only part that will make up ‘self’ consciousness. Research limitations/implications – This findings could be transferrable to other institutions with similar context.  This also opens up another door to further research, especially one that is applicative in nature.

Technological developments have had an impact on all aspects of life including changes to existing payment systems. Electronic money (E-Money) is a non cash payment instrument in addition to credit cards and debit cards. E-money offers advantages over debit cards and credit cards that give the ease, speed, and efficiency. The issue discussed in this research covers the intensity of the use of e-money, the volume of transactions, preferences, and perceptions about the use of e-money at the Faculty of Economics, State University of Malang. This study used a qualitative approach. The findings showed that only a small portion of the respondents (17.07%) has already been used BRIZZI card as a means of payment. Majority of students simply do as much as 3-5 times transaction per month. The volume of transactions in using E-money is still low. Student preference to use BRIZZI is relatively small. Most of the respondents supported less cash society because they believe it will promote economic growth and stability.

Easy facts first, then harder ones! This is the natural route to take in the mastery of basic addition facts, and addition doubles are certainly among those “easy” facts. Using objects to help children “picture” each double makes learning the doubles even easier and a lot of fun. That at least has been the experience of children enrolled in the Illinois State University Mathematics Learning Clinic for area children with learning difficulties in mathematics.
