This study aimed to (1) analyze the role of scaffolding in deconstructing pseudo-thinking structure, and (2) analyze the development of students' thinking structures after receiving scaffolding. The study was framed with a qualitative methodology by involving case study design. This research was conducted at State Junior High School 31 in Semarang City, Indonesia. Data was collected through tests, observation, and interview methods. Result of the study indicated that (1) scaffolding has changed the pseudo thinking process into a real thought process, and (2) scaffolding could develop students’ thinking structure into a more complex (abstract) level. Their thinking structure was initially on the stage of comparative thinking structure before receiving scaffolding assistance and after receiving scaffolding, to developed into the stage of logical reasoning thinking structure. In other words, scaffolding could become a useful strategy to help students go through different Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD).
GeoGebra provides many facilities that can help teachers in geometry animation and manipulation so that it can be used as a means of visualization and construction in finding mathematical concepts. Utilization of the GeoGebra program can provide students with a visual experience in exploring graphs of quadratic functions in mathematics learning. The use of GeoGebra software is not easy, for that we need assistance and guidance activities from experts that are packaged in the form of community service activities. Mentoring activities are carried out online for students of SMA Negeri 1 Pegandon, Kendal, Central Java, through the Zoom Meeting application. The first session is an introduction to GeoGebra and the slider tool in the GeoGebra application. The second session is an exploration of the graph characteristics of a quadratic function by manipulating GeoGebra. The results of the self-regulated learning response questionnaire show that 75% of students have the initiative to learn, 71.55% of students can diagnose learning needs, 75.86% of students can set learning targets, 71,55% of students view difficulties as challenges, 69.83% of students utilize relevant reference sources, 73.71% of students can set learning strategies, 74.14% of students can evaluate learning processes and outcomes, and 78.02% of students have the good self-concept. Through GeoGebra mentoring service activities, students can be motivated to solve quadratic function graph problems and increase learning independence.GeoGebra banyak memberikan fasilitas yang dapat membantu guru dalam animasi geometri dan manipulasi sehingga dapat dijadikan sebagai sarana visualisasi dan mengkonstruksi dalam menemukan konsep matematis. Pemanfaatan program GeoGebra dapat memberikan pengalaman kepada siswa dalam mengeksplorasi grafik fungsi kuadrat pada pembelajaran matematika. Penggunaan software GeoGebra yang tidak mudah sehingga membutuhkan kegiatan pendampingan dan bimbingan dari ahli. Kegiatan pendampingan dilakukan secara online terhadap siswa SMA Negeri 1 Pegandon kabupaten Kendal Jawa Tengah melalui aplikasi zoom meeting. Sesi pertama kegiatan pengabdian adalah pengenalan GeoGebra dan tool slider pada aplikasi GeoGebra dan pada sesi kedua berupa eksplorasi karakteristik grafik fungsi kuadrat dengan memanipulasi GeoGebra. Hasil angket kemandirian belajar menunjukkan bahwa 75% siswa mempunyai inisiatif belajar, 71,55% siswa dapat mendiagnosa kebutuhan belajar, 75,86% siswa dapat menetapkan target belajar, 71,55% siswa beranggapan kesulitan bagian dari tantangan, 69,83% siswa memilih sumber referensi, 73,71% siswa dapat menetapkan strategi belajar, 74,14% siswa dapat melakukan evaluasi hasil belajar, dan 78,02% siswa memiliki self-concept yang baik. Melalui program pengabdian pendampingan geogebra dapat menjadikan siswa termotivasi untuk menyelesaikan masalah grafik fungsi kuadrat dan meningkatkan kemandirian belajar
In this research, the writer analyzes about students' mathematical comprehension skill. The aim of this research is to know students' mathematical comprehension skill at trigonometry lesson especially in quantity and two angles deviation session. The indicator in this research are students' computational comprehension skill and functional comprehension skill. The type of the research is descriptive qualitative research by using test interview and documentation as the data collection technique. The subject of the research are 34 students of XI Science Education Class 6 MA N 1 Semarang. The result are: (1) computational comprehension skill 81.25% is included to understand category. This case shows that some students have understood the use of the formula and the appropriate concept. (2) Functional comprehension skill 86.02% is included to very understand. Most of students have understood the questions and students are able to connect the questions with the other concepts. The results of interviews with students showed that there were some students who stated that they were still confused when they encountered questions that were slightly different from the examples or those taught, but some students had no difficulty in completing the test questions given.
Perkembangan ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi yang sangat cepat sebanding dengan tantangan kehidupan yang semakin rumit, hal ini tidak terlepas dari peran matematika. Sebagaimana tujuan pembelajaran matematika, salah satunya agar siswa menggunakan penalaran untuk memanipulasi matematika, membuat analogi dalam menjelaskan gagasan dan pernyataan matematika. Penelitian ini bertujuan mendeskripsikan penalaran analogi siswa dalam menyelesaikan masalah trigonometri pada siswa berkemampuan tinggi, sedang, dan rendah. Jenis penelitian yang dilakukan deskriptif kualitatif. Instrumen penelitian berupa tes penalaran analogi dan wawancara. Indikator kemampuan penalaran analogi meliputi structuring, mapping, applying dan verifying. Hasil penelitian diperoleh siswa berkemampuan tinggi mampu melakukan semua komponen penalaran analogi, siswa berkemampuan sedang mampu melakukan sampai tahap applying, dan siswa berkemampuan rendah tidak mampu melakukan structuring.
