The problem-solving ability is still a big problem for students. Many studies show that Indonesian students are still low in solving math problems. One thing that is needed in solving problems is self-resilience, so that students have resilience in facing problems. This study aims to analyze the differences in problem-solving abilities of pre-service elementary school teacher in terms of self-resilience. This study used a Quasi-Experiment method with the type Nonequivalent Pretest-Posttest Control Group. The population of this study were all elementary school teacher candidates at Majalengka University with a sample of 60 respondent. This study resulted in a significant difference in the increase in problem-solving abilities of student-teacher candidates. Based on Self Resilience, the group of students who received Problem Based Learning had higher problem-solving abilities than the group of students who received expository learning. Mathematical problem-solving ability requires students to have self-resilience because in solving problems, a person needs to have confidence in his ability to face problems.

This research is motivated by the low ability to understand mathematical concepts possessed by prospective elementary school teacher students. This study aims to see the achievement and improvement of students' mathematical understanding abilities that use Microsoft Excel-based VBA teaching materials with those using conventional learning. This study uses a quasi-experimental method with a non-equivalent pre-test and post-test control group design. This study's population were all second-semester elementary school teacher candidates in one private university in West Java, Indonesia. The sample in this study was 70 prospective 2nd-grade elementary school teacher candidates. The instrument used in this study was a test of understanding mathematical concepts. The results showed: 1) learning using VBA Microsoft Excel as a teaching material was able to improve students' ability to understand mathematical concepts; 2) learning using Microsoft Excel VBA as teaching material is better than conventional learning; and 3) students can be enthusiastic, active and motivated in learning mathematics with VBA Microsoft Excel.

This research is motivated by the low mathematical communication skills of prospective elementary school teacher students. The purpose of this study is to see the achievement and improvement of students' mathematical communication skills using YouTube videos and those using conventional learning. This study used a quasi-experimental method with a non-equivalent pretest and posttest control group design. The population in this study were all students of second semester elementary school teacher candidates at one of the private tertiary institutions in Cimahi City. While the sample in this study were 60 students of second semester elementary school teacher candidates. The instrument used in this study was a test of mathematical communication skills. The results showed: 1) achievement and improvement of mathematical communication skills using YouTube videos was better than conventional learning; 2) Students can be confident, active and motivated in learning mathematics with YouTube videos.

Introduction: Mathematical problem solving ability is very important in mathematic learning, because is can help students to solve daily life problems better. But the students mathematical problem solve ability is not high yet, one of the factor is because many students only know the standard procedures of solving mathematics problems, and when the given problem are different from the examples they tend to give up easily. This comparative design study aims to find out the improvement of students mathematical problem solving ability using Missouri Mathematics Project (MMP) learning model with individual assignments and small group assignments, and to find out whether there are differences between those two. Method: The sample in this study was VII grade students at SMP Advent Cimindi and SMP Advent II Bandung, Bandung. The instruments used in the study are mathematical problem solving test and questionnaire for response toward the Missouri Mathematics Project (MMP) learning model as the non-test instrument. Result: The results showed that the improvement of mathematical problem solving abilities of students who obtained the Missouri Mathematics Project (MMP) learning model with individual assignments and students who obtained the Missouri Mathematics Project (MMP) learning model by assigning small groups was categorized as high. Statistically, there is a significant difference in the students mathematical problem solving improvement after being taught using Missouri Mathematics Project (MMP) learning model, between students who get individual assignments and small group assignments. The response questionnaire result shows that students who acquire individual assignments like the Missouri Mathematics Project (MMP) learning model, more further the students who acquire group assignments really like the Missouri Mathematics Project (MMP) learning model.

ABSTRAK Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melihat pengaruh model pembelajaran berbasis masalah yang dikombinasikan dengan menulis matematika terhadap kemampuan pemecahan masalah dengan tinjauan kemampuan awal matematis siswa dengan kategori tinggi, sedang, dan rendah. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kuasi eksperimen dengan menggunakan satu kelompok eksperimen dengan perlakukan model pembelajarann berbasis masalah yang dikombinasikan dengan menulis matematika dan satu kelompok kontrol yang hanya diberikan perlakukan model pembelajaran berbasis masalah. Metode pengumpulan data terdiri dari tes kemampuan pemecahan masalah matematis. Teknik analisis data menggunakan analisis variansi dua jalan sel tidak sama. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kemampuan pemecahan masalah siswa yang menggunakan model pembelajaran berbasis masalah yang dikombinasikan dengan menulis matematika lebih baik daripada kemampuan pemecahan masalah siswa yang hanya menggunakan model pembelajaran berbasis masalah secara umum maupun berdasarkan kategori kemampuan awal matematis. Ditinjau dari kategori kemampuan awal matematis, siswa kategori tinggi dan sedang menunjukkan tidak adanya perbedaan kemampuan pemecahan masalah yang signifikan, sedangkan kemampuan pemecahan masalah siswa kategori tinggi dan sedang lebih baik jika dibandingkan dengan kemampuan pemecahan masalah siswa kategori rendah. Kata kunci: pembelajaran berbasis masalah, menulis matematika, kemampuan pemecahan masalah, kemampuan awal matematis.   ABSTRACT This study aims to look at the effect of problem-based learning models combined with mathematical writing on problem solving abilities with a review of students' mathematical early capabilities in high, medium, and low categories. This research is a quasi-experimental study using one experimental group with the treatment of problem-based learning models combined with writing mathematics and a control group that is only given the treatment of problem-based learning models. Data collection methods consist of tests of mathematical problem solving abilities. Data analysis techniques using two path analysis of variance are not the sam cell. The results showed that the problem-solving ability of students who use problem-based learning models combined with writing mathematics is better than the problem-solving abilities of students who only use problem-based learning models in general or by the category of mathematical early ability. Judging from the early mathematical ability category, high and medium category students showed no significant difference in problem solving abilities while the problem solving ability of high and medium category students was better when compared to the problem solving ability of low category students. Keywords: problem based learning, writing mathematics, problem solving ability, mathematics early ability.

This study aims to determine the ability of mathematical problem solving before or after the application of the open-ended approach and student’s responses during learning. The techniques used in collecting data were interviews, questionnaire tests, and documentation. This type of research is quantitative with experimental design, statistical techniques are used to analyze the research results. The results of the study can be seen with the results of the pretest and posttest student’s abilities. The ability of students showed an average difference between the pretest and posttest scores of 36.71 and 80.81 and the Fcount was 122.927. So the conclusion is the problem solving ability of students has a significant difference and tends to increase. As well as a very positive response shown by students with a percentage of 84.3%.
