Abstract

In research related to PISA, students have earned many portions as research subjects. However, research on teachers is rarely conducted. It is widely believed that there is a link between students’ ability and teachers’ ability. This study aimed at describing teacher’s solution on PISA adaptation test. The PISA adaptation test consists of 13 questions from 4 scopes. However, this research focuses on the scope of uncertainty consisting of 3 test questions. In this study, the subjects were 7 teachers who were randomly selected from a Junior High School. This study adopted Cobb and Koeno’s model of design research. The finding showed that all teachers responded correctly in the scope of uncertainty at level 2 and level 4. Moreover, the results revealed that 42,86% of teachers achieved level 5 and 28,57% teachers achieved level 6. Therefore, to improve the quality of students it is necessary to improve the quality of teachers.

Highlights

  • Student achievement was closely and directly related to the mathematics and pedagogical skills of elementary teachers [1, 2]

  • This study aimed at describing teacher's solution on PISA adaptation test

  • There was a significant relationship between teachers' perceptions and knowledge achieved by students [1, 2]

Summary

Introduction

Student achievement was closely and directly related to the mathematics and pedagogical skills of elementary teachers [1, 2]. There was a significant relationship between teachers' perceptions and knowledge achieved by students [1, 2]. In this study teachers’ perceptions were defined as (1) teacher paradigm in the learning process of mathematics, and (2) teacher attention to students' math skills [1, 2]. The teacher's attention to the students' mathematical skills was dependent on the teacher's mathematical knowledge [1, 2]. The ability of teachers in managing the process of learning to teach mathematics and solve mathematics problems was one of the determinants of student success in completing the PISA test. This study aimed to describe the Junior High School teachers’ solution on PISA adaptation tests in quantity, space and shape, change and relationship, and uncertainty area, but in this paper, researchers will only describe the results of the research for teachers’ solution on PISA adaptation tests in the uncertainty area [3, 4, 5]
