“…This is indicated by the solutions that the subject can give to each problem. This finding is in line with the opinion Sarjana et al (2020) which states that solving word problems can be optimized by practicing verbal skills, and the ability to create models simultaneously. However, the difficulty level causes different attitudes towards problems where the quitter subject is unable to alternative think solutions and only uses intuition.…”

“…Students can develop lateral thinking skills through word problems. In general, word problems are connected to students' daily life situations along with mathematical symbols that can be used in solving problems (Sarjana et al, 2020). Geometry is a concept that is often found in the everyday life context and has a relationship with word problems.…”

Solving word problems with a thought jump shows flexibility and the ability to use alternative procedures that are important for students to master. The thought jump is a feature of the lateral thinking process and is needed to overcome the various difficulties in solving mathematical word problems. However, lateral thinking has not been widely linked with adversity quotient and reflective cognitive style. This study aimed to describe students' lateral thinking processes in solving word problems in terms of adversity quotient and reflective cognitive style. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The subjects in this study were junior high school students in Gowa Regency, South Sulawesi Province. The research instrument used the MFFT diagnostic test, ARP questionnaire sheet, word problem text, and interview guidelines. The results of this study indicate that climber-reflective subjects can think laterally and use them to solve the first and second-word problems well. Camper-reflective subjects can only think laterally for situations that are still within reach, while for more complicated cases, camper subjects are easily distracted and even stop solving problems. Quitter subjects solve word problems very procedurally, follow rigid algorithms, and cannot work backward when faced with difficulties.

“…In this case students have good verbal skills that can help students understand meaning and also in making mathematical models to solve math problems (Daniyati & Sugiman, 2015). In line with other studies that if students have better verbal skills, the students' ability to solve word problems is also getting better (Sarjana et al, 2020).…”

“…In this case, SR can make a mathematical model appropriately and can understand the problems of the problem. Students who can understand problems can make it easier for students to change situations related to everyday life into abstract equations that use mathematical symbols that can lead to mathematical models (Sarjana et al, 2020). If students can make mathematical models well, students can continue to solve problems in the problem.…”

The purpose of this study was to analyze students' mathematical critical thinking in terms of mathematical resilience and domicile. The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative where the process of selecting the subject uses an application called Winstep. Researchers used 473 high school students from 6 different schools to be the subjects in this study. The technique of taking the subject from research is based on the students' mathematical resilience level so there are 3 categories, namely high mathematical resilience, moderate mathematical resilience and high mathematical resilience. Data collection techniques using questionnaires, tests and interviews. Students are given a questionnaire in advance to determine the subject who will take the next test, namely mathematical critical thinking questions, after which the student's answers are analyzed and the researcher conducts interviews to find out how students solve the problems given and how many indicators the students can solve obtained in this study are students with high mathematical resilience obtain low critical thinking skills, students with moderate mathematical resilience acquire high critical thinking skills and students who have low mathematical resilience obtain moderate critical thinking skills.

This study aims to analyze the effect of creativity and self-regulated learning on the pre-service teacher's performance in school internships. This research was an ex-post facto with a quantitative approach. The sample of this research was selected using a purposive sampling technique. Seventy-three students at the University of Mataram FKIP participated in the school internship as the research sample. The research instrument used was a creativity questionnaire, a self-regulated learning questionnaire, and a school internship performance instrument. The data obtained were analyzed using multiple linear and straightforward linear regression tests. The results of this study were a) there was a significant effect between creativity and self-regulated learning on the performance of the pre-service teacher in school internship, b) there was a significant influence between creativity and pre-service teacher performance and c) there was a significant effect between self-regulated learning and pre-service teacher performance. This study concludes that there is an influence, either partially or simultaneously, between creativity and self-regulated learning on the performance of pre-service teacher who takes school internship programs. It implies that creativity and self-regulated learning are two aspects to consider when evaluating PLP student performance. Improving their abilities in these two areas will help them succeed in the PLP program.
