This study focused on developing physics test instruments for senior high school students on the topics of temperature and heat. The study aimed to determine (i) the quality of the test instrument content, (ii) the feasibility of the test instrument, and (iii) students' graphic representation abilities on "Temperature and Heat" topics.…

This cross-sectional study examines participants' comprehension of line graphs at different career stages, comparing first-year and third-year pre-service teachers (PSTs) with in-service teachers (ISTs). A 23-item line graph task aligned with Curcio's framework--"Reading the data, Reading between the data, and Reading beyond the…

The capacity to generate prediction is indispensable in daily existence, particularly amidst the swift transformations that are occurring on a global scale. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the levels of prediction ability among mathematics students when presented with data in graphs. A qualitative approach was adopted, involving 37…

Graph theory allows the student to work on problems that require imagination, intuition, systematic exploration, conjecturing, and reasoning. It implies that mathematical investigation skill is essential to be proficient in Graph Theory. In this study, we conduct empirical research that deals with associational research. There were 97 students…

Sound waves are one of the important topics studied in physics. However, students' graph representation is still low, leading to their low concept understanding of physics learning. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the learning process to improve students' graph representation by providing a valid and reliable graph representation test…

Learning activities related to students' real-life experiences may create meaningful learning. Integrating traditional games into the physics classroom can reconstruct local knowledge into scientific knowledge. The use of technology can affect student learning achievement. One of the technologies currently attracting attention is Augmented reality…

Background/purpose: This study analyzes the commognition of students with low Working Memory Capacity (WMC) when solving calculus problems, particularly in integral material. Commognition, which merges cognition and communication, is explored through four indicators: keywords (stating knowns and unknowns), visual mediators (graphical…

Background/purpose: Academic reading presents significant challenges for English for Specific Purposes (ESP) learners, especially when processing structurally dense expository texts in STEM disciplines. This study aims to assess the impact of text-structure-aligned goals on students' reading comprehension and written summarization, while exploring…

This research aimed to construct a statistical creative model in solving the problem of descriptive statistics. This type of research is a mixed methods research with a sequential mixed methods model using Exploratory sequential design. A descriptive qualitative method is used to build statistical creative models. Meanwhile, a quantitative method…

Student difficulties with making sense of graphs in physics have been thoroughly reported. In the study of one-dimensional waves, the issue is even trickier since the amplitude is a function of two variables (position and time). In this work, we investigate students' reasoning and difficulties with interpreting the graphical representation of the…

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of Fry readability-based digital storybooks on reading comprehension skills among elementary school students. The method used in this study was an experimental research design with a pretest-posttest control group design to measure students' reading comprehension skills. The sample of this study was…

This study attempts to describe characteristics of graph thinking in solving a mathematical problem. Three students at the 10th grade of senior-high schools were involved as the subject. The data was collected from the result of an optimization problem task (OPT), video recording, interviews, and field notes. The results showed two major…

Translation skills are very important possessed by students, but currently, there are still many students who have difficulty in translating between representations. The purpose of this study is to analyze students' errors in translating from symbolic representations to verbal and graphic representations. This research was descriptive study with…

The purpose of this study was to describe students' thinking processes in relating quantities to the problem of covariation in the process of solving mathematical problems. This study used a descriptive exploratory approach within the scope of qualitative research involving 87 students as prospective subjects from three different high schools. The…

A Trigonometric function is one of the challenging materials for not only high school students but also pre-service teachers and teachers. On the other hand, An understanding of trigonometric function is an initial stage in understanding calculus derived from it such as limit, derivative, and integral. Thus, the competency in trigonometric…
