Analysis of Mathematical Communication Skills of Junior High School Students Reviewed from Gender and School Origin

Abstract

This study aims to analyze and describe the mathematical communication skills of junior high school students reviewed from gender and school origin. This reaserch is a qualitative descriptive study, with the subject of the study being the eighth grade students of Pasir Sakti State 2 Junior High School, which subject of study eight students, namely 4 students from State elementary schools (2 males and 2 females) and 4 students from Private elementary schools (2 males and 2 females). The data collection technique was mathematical communication skills tests used the data presentation material consisting two questions. The research data was collected by researchers directly. Technique of data analysis in this study are Data Reduction, Data Display, and Conclusions Drawing/Verification. The results showed: The mathematical communication skills of junior high school students overall are (1) The ability of female students were higher than male students with a difference of 11.11%. (2) The ability of students from public elementary schools were higher than students from private elementary schools with a difference of 2.78%. (3) The ability of students in Drawing aspect were higher than Written Text aspect, and Mathematical Expression aspect.
