Abstract
Mathematical literacy in Indonesia has until now become a major problem in the study of international PISA surveys. This study aims to describe the abilities of students' mathematical literacy in solving PISA-oriented problems with change and relationship content. This work is descriptive qualitative research. Data collection techniques include tests, interviews and documentation. Data analysis techniques in this study are carried out with three activities namely reducing data, presenting data, and drawing conclusions. To ensure the validity of the data, triangulation technique is used. The research subjects are 31 middle school students of year 9. Based on the analysis of students' abilities by using average calculations and standard deviations, it is obtained that the student ability could be categorized into high, medium, and low ability. The results show that for the five abilities in the process of mathematical literacy, most students had communication skills. However, they have lower ability in mathematical, reasoning and argument, as well as identifying and determining strategies for solving the problems.
Highlights
Education is the most important learning that is carried out by everyone from one generation to the through teaching, training or research with the aim of being able to educate and develop the potential within learners
Mathematics is a way of thinking logically that is represented in numbers, spaces, and forms with existing rules that cannot be separated from these human activities
This study is a qualitative research with a qualitative descriptive approach because researchers want to describe or describe facts or circumstances that appear in students' mathematical literacy skills in solving Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) problems
Summary
Education is the most important learning that is carried out by everyone from one generation to the through teaching, training or research with the aim of being able to educate and develop the potential within learners. 1 concerning the National Education System, education is a conscious and planned effort to create an atmosphere of learning and learning process so that students actively develop their potential to have spiritual strength, self-control, personality, intelligence, noble character, and the skills they need for theirself, society, nation and state. According to Hans Freudental (in Sudarwan Dani, 2012), mathematics is a human activity and must be linked to the reality. Many factors must be considered in learning mathematics, including the willingness, ability and certain intelligence, teacher readiness, student readiness, curriculum and presentation methods
