This study aims to develop a mathematics test with the COVID-19 context to measure the student's skill competencies in grade VIII SMP/MTs. This study was a research development by following the test development procedures: compiling blueprints, writing items, reviewing questions, testing, analyzing the results of trials, and revising. The developed test consists of multiple-choice items with four options. These items were validated content by three experts (teacher, lecturer, and mathematics trainer) and were tested to 86 students. This study developed a mathematics test set with the COVID-19 context consisting of ten items that experts declared valid. Trial of ten items showed two items (numbers 7 and 6), which were not good. Item number 7 was too easy, while item number 6 was not good in the discrimination index. Besides, the two distractors in item number 7 did not work correctly. The estimated coefficient of reliability of the measurement results was quite high, indicated by a coefficient value of 0.658. The items that were not good have been revised by modifying the items so that the index of difficulty and discrimination look good. Useful and revised items were assembled into a mathematics test set for grade VIII students.

The research was conducted to determine the characteristics and forms of matter; similarly determine the validity, reliability, as well as the students' response to the measurement results HOT reasoning about TIMSS models to measure student HOT developed. The method used is the research development. Products in the form of multiple choice questions as well as the reasons of the students' answers. Student responses obtained from the questionnaire responses the students after using such a matter. Based on the criteria of due diligence in a very good product. Characteristic of reasoning about TIMSS models which contain components reasoning refers to the TIMSS. About the validity of the overall test results show that the question is valid and feasible to use to measure student HOT. Reliability test results indicate that the matter is reliable and can be used well. Student response after use problems in the excellent category, obtained a percentage of 82.66%. HOT measurement results in the category of students is still low, at SMPN 8 Semarang amounted to 51.54%, SMP Kartika III-2 Semarang amounted to 31.16%, and the MTs NU amounted to 47.68% Ungaran. Problem reasoning models that have been developed decent TIMSS used to measure student HOT.

This study investigates the relationship between measures of mathematics teacher skill and student achievement in California high schools. Test scores are analyzed in relation to teacher experience and education and student demographics. The results are consistent with the hypotheses that there is a shortage of qualified mathematics teachers in California and that this shortage is associated with low student scores in mathematics. After controlling for poverty, teacher experience and preparation significantly predict test scores. Short-term strategies to increase the supply of qualified mathematics teachers could include staff development, and recruitment incentives. A long-term strategy addressing root causes of the shortage requires more emphasis on mathematics in high school and undergraduate programs.

The Wisconsin Laboratory School Mathematics Committee prepared mathematics tests for Grades I through 6 that were administered throughout Wisconsin in 1969. These tests were based on behavioral objectives in Guidelines to Mathematics: K–6 (1967) published by the Department of Public Instruction of the state of Wisconsin. A comprehensive analysis of the mathematics test data was prepared by Coulson (1973). This report is a summary and selection of results from Coulson's study.

A total of 1487 eleventh grade students in Leipzig (Germany) and Sendai (Japan) were given a test of basic concepts and operations in high school mathematics and a questionnaire involving beliefs, attitudes, and practices related to mathematics, their own abilities, and their psychological adjustment. Large differences were found between the two countries in the students’ performance. The lower scores of the German students are attributed to three major areas of difference. Compared to Japanese students, German students were less critical of themselves and their academic ability, held lower standards for their performance, and were less likely to attribute excellence in performance to studying. Students in both countries expressed few indications of maladjustment. When differences were found the indices of maladjustment were more common among German than among Japanese students. Boys obtained higher scores on the mathematics test than girls, were more likely to spend more time studying mathematics, and placed more importance on going to college than did girls. The poor performance of the German students appears to be attributable to the same kinds of beliefs and attitudes as those found in prior studies of US students, who also have received low scores on tests of mathematics achievement.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara learning style dengan hasil belajar siswa pada mata pelajaran matematika kelas V di MIN 2 Palembang. Pendekatan dan metode penelitian ini menggunakan kuantitafif desain korelasional. Populasi dari penelitian ini adalah seluruh siswa kelas V yang ada di MIN 2 Palembang berjumlah 261 siswa. Sampel ditentukan dari populasi menggunakan teknik purposive sampling dengan jumlah sampel 148 siswa. Data tentang learning style dikumpulkan dari pengisian angket learning style oleh responden, sedangkan hasil belajar didapat dari hasil post-test siswa. Hasil analisis data diperoleh bahwa untuk learning style visual rhitung (0.172) rtabel (0.1698), auditorial rhitung (0.251) rtabel (0.3172), kinestetik rhitung (0.127) rtabel (0.3009). Berdasarkan kriteria pengujian maka hipotesis nol (Ho) diterima dan hipotesis alternatif (Ha) ditolak (auditorial dan kinestetik). Jadi, dapat disimpulkan bahwa tidak terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara learning style (auditorial dan visual) dengan hasil belajar siswa pada mata pelajaran matematika kelas V di MIN 2 Palembang. This study aims to determine the correlation between learning style and student’s academic achievement of mathematics the fifth grade students at MIN 2 Palembang. This types of research are quantitative, correlation design. The population of this study was 261 students and 148 were taken as the sample by purposive sampling. The data collected are the results of filling the learning style and mathematics test by the respondents. The results of data analysis obtained for visual tcount (0.172) ttable (0.1698), while auditorial tcount (0.251) ttable (0.3172), cinestethic tcount (0.127) ttable (0.3009). Based on the criteria of test, the null hypothesis (Ho) is accepted and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is rejected for auditorial and cinestethic. So it can be concluded that there is no significant correlation between learning style (auditorial and cinestethic) and student’s academic achievement of mathematics the fifth grade students at MIN 2 Palembang.

This research aimed to improve the learning process and improved the student’s mathematic achievement through the implementation of problem based learning. The research was the classroom action research with two cycles. The research was conducted in student of class VII3 SMPN 4 Pekanbaru in odd semester of the 2018/2019 academic year with the subject is 38 students. The research instruments  consist of learning devices and data collector instrument. Learning devices consists of the syllabus, lesson plan and student worksheet. The data collector instrument consists of the observation sheet and mathematics test. Technique of data analysis is analysis of narrative descriptive and analysis of statistical descriptive. The result of the research show that the learning process has improved and the student’s mathematic achievement has improved after applying the problem based learning model. The percentage of student who achieve minimal completeness criteria on first cycle was 68,42% and the second cycle was 78,94% which greater than the percentage of student who achieve minimal completeness criteria before implementation of problem based learning that only 44,73%. Therefore, the problem based learning can be used as an alternative in learning.
