<p class="abstrak" align="center"><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p class="abstrak">The spread of Covid-19 has affected every sector, including education. The learning process that used to take place in the classroom has now become virtualized. However, this exacerbates pupils' difficulties in learning mathematics, which they previously considered challenging even in offline learning activities. To deal with this challenge, it is vital to describe alterations in the learning process under this pandemic situation. This qualitative research was carried out through interviews and questionnaires. The participants were seven teachers and seven students from various junior high schools in Bukittinggi with varying accreditation. Structured interviews, both online and in-person, were used to collect data. The result shows that students could understand the subject better before the pandemic. During the pandemic, the percentage of students who understood the material learning decreased by 10%. However, the percentage of people who use online media as a learning resource has increased by 50%. Overall, the assessment done by teachers on the cognitive aspects of a pandemic by Minimum Completeness Criteria (MCC) remains at 75. In the future, there will be a trend toward the use of e-learning and the development of technology-based learning media in the classroom.</p><p class="abstrak"><em>Penyebaran wabah Pandemi Covid-19 telah berdampak pada semua sektor termasuk pendidikan. Proses pembelajaran yang awalnya berlangsung tatap muka sekarang beralih secara virtual. Padahal sebelum pembelajaran daring dimulai, siswa masih kesulitan dalam mempelajari matematika. Oleh karena itu, mendeskripsikan perubahan apa saja yang ada selama proses pembelajaran daring penting dilakukan untuk mengatasi masalah ini Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif dimana sampel diambil adalah tujuh orang guru dan tujuh orang siswa SMP/MTsN dari sekolah yang memiliki akreditasi berbeda di Bukittinggi. Pengambilan data dilakukan dengan wawancara terstruktur via online dan tatap muka.

This study was a case study which aimed to analyze the types of questions used by an English teacher, the purposes of questions asked by the teacher, and the strategy used to cope with non-responded questions. The subject of this study was an English teacher who taught seventh grade students at SMPN 1 Singaraja which is located in Singaraja, Buleleng regency, Bali, Indonesia. The data were collected through observation, interview, and video recording. The result of the analysis showed that from 241 questions, the teacher more frequently asked convergent, closed, and display questions rather than divergent, open, and referential questions. Procedural questions were also found. The teacher’s questions served several purposes such as to check students’ knowledge and understanding, to attract students’ activeness, to develop students’ interest and curiosity, and to stimulate students in stating information. It was also found that the teacher used seven strategies to cope with non-responded questions. This study suggested the teacher to balance the number of convergent, closed, and display with divergent, open, and referential questions to be used during teaching and learning process. In addition, the teacher should know more about the strategies for non-responded questions and the proper way to use those strategies to make the teaching and learning process runs smoothly.

Learning mathematics is not only aimed at developing mathematical cognitive abilities, but also for developing affective domains. One important aspect in the affective domain that is very influential and determines success in learning mathematics is the positive view of students on mathematics or in mathematics learning called mathematical disposition. A student who has a high disposition will be more persistent and resilient in facing mathematical problems that are more challenging and will be more responsible for their own learning and always develop good habits in mathematics. The problem posing approach which in the learning process requires students to ask questions and make their solutions is expected to be able to change students 'views of mathematics to be more positive, while also improving students' mathematical abilities. This study aims to examine the differences in the levels of mathematical disposition of junior high school students before and after learning through the problem posing approach. The type of research is experimental research with the design of one group pre-test post-test design. The population in this study were all VII grade students of Bandar Baru 1 Junior High School, with research samples of class VII2 students selected through random sampling techniques. The instrument used to obtain the research data was a mathematical disposition scale questionnaire sheet. The statistical test used to analyze data on differences in mathematical disposition of junior high school students before and after learning through the problem posing approach is paired t-test. The results showed that there were significant differences in the level of mathematical disposition of junior high school students before and after learning through the problem posing approach. This means that students' mathematical dispositions get better after they get a problem posing learning approach. Keywords: Mathematical Disposition, Problem Posing Approach
