“…As a matter of fact, problems that were posed by the pre-service teachers in this study are not complex problems that require analysis, reasoning, or the ability to link two mathematical concepts. These problems are considered as primitive problems [12], [16], assignment proposition problems [16], and zero semantic relation problems that can be solved by merely utilizing information stated in the problems [16]. In short, the problems are not challenging.…”

“…Students have a tendency to create connections between their non-mathematical experiences and problems they encounter in the textbooks [11], [12]. Therefore, the use of familiar objects in a mathematical problem can help the students solve the problem.…”

“…In problem solving, learners are required to connect their knowledge and experiences to the context of the problem [11], [12]. The teachers, thus, need to be selective of the problems that are going to be presented to the students.…”

This study aimed to expose pre-service elementary school teachers' awareness of selecting and using real-life context in the problems they posed. The participants of this study were asked to create mathematical problems. The findings showed that some of the participants were more focused on the mathematical concepts and procedures, but tended to ignore the contexts of the problems proposed. As a result, they created problems using numbers and stories that are not relevant to everyday life or are termed pseudo-problems. Some of the real-problems submitted by the participants were not based on an awareness of problem-context relevance.

“…Saleh (2021) menyatakan kekurangan informasi atau ketidaktepatan pemilihan bilangan dalam soal menunjukkan pembuat soal tidak mengoneksikan dengan baik objek-objek yang digunakan dalam soal dan jawaban yang diharapkan. Har (2009) menjelaskan bahwa soal yang diajukan seseorang biasanya dikaitkan dengan pengalaman non matematis orang tersebut atau soal yang pernah dilihat dalam buku pelajaran. Hal ini juga terjadi pada mahasiswa yang menjadi subjek dalam penelitian ini.…”

Tujuan penelitian ini untuk melakukan identifikasi awal terhadap soal matematika berkonteks budaya daerah yang diajukan mahasiswa. Sebanyak 17 mahasiswa calon guru sekolah dasar dari suatu universitas swasta di Makassar menjadi subjek dalam penelitian ini. Mahasiswa diminta mengajukan soal matematika tentang Faktor Persekutuan Terbesar (FPB) dari dua bilangan asli dan memuat konteks budaya daerah. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan dari 17 soal, ada 15 soal yang tergolong solvable (dapat diselesaikan) dan dua soal tergolong unsolvable (tidak dapat diselesaikan). Soal tidak dapat diselesaikan karena ada yang kurang dari informasi dalam soal atau ada informasi yang saling bertentangan. Konteks budaya daerah yang digunakan dalam soal didominasi budaya suku Bugis-Makassar. Dari 17 soal yang diajukan, 16 soal tergolong masalah nyata dan satu soal tergolong masalah semu. Soal tergolong masalah semu karena memuat konteks yang tidak relevan dengan keadaan sebenarnya.
