This study aimed to describe the Mathematical literacy skills of Grade VI students of SD Inpres Nipa-Nipa, in terms of reflective and impulsive cognitive styles, based on the six levels of Mathematical literacy. This research was a descriptive study with a qualitative approach. The subjects of this study were two grade IV students, one student with a reflective style and another student with an impulsive style. The data collection began by giving a cognitive style test and an initial Mathematics test. Then, a Mathematical literacy test was also administered to determine the level of students’ literacy. After that, an interview was conducted to obtain more accurate data. The results showed that (1) the reflective student took a long time and was very circumspect in answering the Mathematical literacy test questions, so that the results were more accurate. The reflective student was able to answer the questions with clear procedures sequentially and was able to interpret and use representations based on information of the questions, so that it could take the right strategy to answer the question. These results revealed that the students were at the third level of mathematical literacy ability, (2) the impulsive student needed shorter time and was less careful in answering a Mathematical literacy test so that the results were less accurate. The results showed that the impulsive student could answer the question with an identified context and the relevant information with a clear question was available. In addition, the impulsive student could identify information obtained from the question and when he was given a stimulus. Thus, the impulsive student possessed the first-level of Mathematical literacy skills.

This study aims to: 1) describe students' mathematical literacy skills in algebraic material in terms of learning independence. 2) to describe the factors that affect students' mathematical literacy skills in algebraic material in terms of learning independence. This research method is qualitative. The subjects in this study were students of class VIII-A at SMP Negeri 1 Singkawang. The data collection instruments used a learning independence questionnaire, a mathematical literacy test, and an interview sheet. Data analysis techniques used the Miles and Huberman Model, namely, data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The results showed that 1) The students' mathematical literacy ability in terms of their high learning independence character had an average of 69.44 (high category). Most of the students were unable to do the reasoning and argumentation stages. 2) The students' mathematical literacy skills in terms of their moderate learning independence character had an average of 57.41 (moderate category). Most of them were unable to develop strategies for solving problems. 3) The students' mathematical literacy ability in terms of their low learning independence character has an average of 46.11 (moderate category). Most of them are not capable at the mathemathising stage. 4) factors that affect mathematical literacy skills in terms of the character of independent learning in algebra material are generally influenced by internal factors, namely factors from the students themselves, students are less able to understand, accept, or digest subject matter, students have difficulty planning strategies in problem solving both in using the formula to be used, the rules in operation, do not provide the right steps in answering the questions.Keywords: mathematical literacy skills, learning independence

The purpose of this study was to determine how the level of numeracy literacy skills of students based on cognitive style, namely reflective-impulsive. The method used in this study was a quantitative research with a survey method. The object of the study or population was the 2018 PGSD Bone student class using the MFFT test to see cognitive style and written test related to numeracy literacy skills. The result of the research and discussion showed that the numeracy literacy ability of students was still not maximal, namely 34.7%. Judging from the cognitive style, 55% entered into reflective cognitive style and 22.08% entered an impulsive style. The reflective cognitive style in solving the questions takes a long time, but the results obtained to be correct or accurate, while the impulsive cognitive style is said to rush in answering and tend to be wrong. Another finding is that there are reflective cognitive style with a long time used but the answers are also many wrong and about 10% impulsive style answers correct in a short time. To improve numeracy literacy skills, a learning strategy or model is needed in accordance with the characteristics of students to develop creative, critical, high-order thinking by integrating 21st century

Abstrak — Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mendeskripsikan profil berpikir kritis siswa dengan gaya kognitif field dependent-independent dalam memecahkan masalah open ended matematika. Metode yang digunakan adalah deskriptif kualitatif yang akan memberikan gambaran profil berpikir kritis siswa dengan gaya kognitif field dependent-independent dalam memecahkan masalah matematika open ended. Subjek yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah 2 siswa kelas IX dengan rincian masing-masing 1 siswa gaya kognitif field dependent (FD) dan field independent (FI). Teknik pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan cara tes gaya kognitif GEFT, tes pemecahan masalah matematika (TPMOE) dan wawancara. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis pada setiap tahap pemecahan masalah berdasarkan kriteria berpikir kritis Jacob dan Sam. Setelah diteliti, hasil menunjukkan profil berpikir dua subjek mengenai pemahaman masalah relatif identik. Kedua subjek melaksanakan indikator klarifikasi, namun subjek FD salah dalam menghubungkan antar bagian saat menyelesaikan menggunakan cara ke II. Kedua subjek memenuhi indikator asesmen dan strategi pada saat langkah menyusun rencana. Subjek FI dan FD memberikan alasan yang masuk akal terkait dengan strategi yang dipakai, memilih informasi yang terkait dengan pemecahan masalah, serta dapat memberikan alasanyang tepat pada setiap langkah. Kedua subjek juga dapat memprediksi hasil dari langkah pengerjaan yang telah dibuat. Saat tahap melaksanakan rencana, kedua subjek menyelesaikan permasalahan sesuai dengan tahap yang telah direncanakan serta bisa membuat konklusi secara tepat. Kedua subjek memeriksa kembali langkah yang telah dilakukan pada langkah memeriksa kembali. Subjek FD kurang teliti saat memahami masalah sehingga berakibat menggunakan cara yang salah pada cara II.Kata Kunci : Berpikir kritis, pemecahan masalah, field dependent-independent.Abstract — The aims of this research is to describe the critical thinking profile of students with field dependent-independent cognitive styles in solving open ended mathematics problems. The method in this research is descriptive qualitative which will produce descriptive data in the form of a description of the critical thinking profile of students with dependent-independent field cognitive style in solving open ended mathematical problems. The subjects were 2 students on 9th grade junior high school with the details of each student is, the first student with field dependent (FD) cognitive style and the second student with fieldindependent (FI). Data collection techniques were carried out by means of the GEFT cognitive style test, mathematical problem solving test (TPMOE) and interviews. Data were analyzed based on Jacob and Sam's critical thinking criteria at each step of Polya's problem solving. The results showed the profile of thinkingof the two subjects at the same stage on understanding the problem. Both subjects carry out clarification indicators, but the subject FD is wrong in connecting between parts when completing using method II.

Four recently developed adolescent language tests, the Fullerton Test for Adolescents (FLTA), the Test of Adolescent Language (TOAL), the Clinical Evaluation of Language Functions (CELF), and the Screening Test of Adolescent Language (STAL), were compared to determine: (a) whether they measured the same language skills (content) in the same way (procedures); and (b) whether students performed similarly on each of the tests. First, respective manuals were reviewed to compare selection of subtest content areas and subtest procedures. Then, each of the tests was administered according to standardized procedures to 30 unselected sixth-grade students. Despite apparent differences in test content and procedures, there was no significant difference in students' performance on three of the four tests, and correlations among test performance were moderate to high. A comparison of the pass/fail rates for overall performance on the tests, however, revealed a significant discrepancy between the proportions of students identified in need of further evaluation on the STAL (20%) and the proportion diagnosed as language impaired on the three diagnostic tests (60-73%). Clinical implications are discussed.

The right and appropriate system of receiving and transferring goods is needed by the company. In the process of receiving and transferring goods from the central warehouse to the branch warehouse at PDAM Tirta Kerta Raharja, Tangerang Regency, which is currently done manually is still ineffective and inaccurate because the Head of Subdivision uses receipt documents, namely PPBP and mutation of goods, namely MPPW in the form of paper as a submission media. The Head of Subdivision enters the data of receipt and mutation of goods manually and requires a relatively long time because at the time of demand for the transfer of goods the Head of Subdivision must check the inventory of goods in the central warehouse first. Therefore, it is necessary to hold a design of information systems for the receipt and transfer of goods from the central warehouse to a web-based branch warehouse that is already database so that it is more effective, efficient and accurate. With the web-based system of receiving and transferring goods that are already datatabed, it can facilitate the Head of Subdivision in inputing data on the receipt and transfer of goods and control of stock inventory so that the Sub Head of Subdivision can do it periodically to make it more effective, efficient and accurate. The method of data collection is done by observing, interviewing and studying literature from various previous studies, while the system analysis method uses the Waterfall method which aims to solve a problem and uses design methods with visual modeling that is object oriented with UML while programming using PHP and MySQL as a database.
