One thing that students must master to achieve learning goals is mathematical reasoning abilities. In other words, students can use mathematics as a reasoning tool both in learning mathematics in class and everyday life. This research aims to determine the difference between students' mathematical reasoning abilities and low learning interest. Good student learning interest will make students happy to learn mathematics without coercion, with good learning interest will affect students' mathematical reasoning abilities. Mathematical reasoning abilities can be improved through increasing student interest in learning. This research is a qualitative descriptive study, the population in this study were all eighth-grade students of the 2020/2021 academic year. The sample taken was class VIII.2 using a random cluster. Data collection techniques and research instruments are tests of mathematical reasoning abilities on quadrilateral material, questionnaires in questionnaire sheets for learning interests, and interviews. Based on the results of data analysis, it can be concluded that: 1) There are differences in mathematical reasoning abilities between students who have high learning interests. 2) There are differences in mathematical reasoning abilities between students with low interest in learning.","PeriodicalId":137292,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Research on Mathematics Instruction (JRMI)","volume":"153 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123666385","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research in this journal is an experimental study using pretest-posttest control group design with a population of seventh-grade students of SMP Negeri in Kuantan Singingi Regency, divided into three school levels: high, medium, and low schools. From each school, two classes were randomly selected as the experimental class and the control class. The research instrument was the Mathematical Communication Ability test questions. The data collection technique is done by testing. Data were analyzed using t-test and one-way ANOVA. The results showed an effect of PBL application on mathematical communication skills in terms of all students. The effect of PBL application on mathematical communication skills in terms of school-level shows that for the high school level, students are better than students using conventional learning, while at the medium and low school level, there is no significant effect.","PeriodicalId":137292,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Research on Mathematics Instruction (JRMI)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128387504","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The subjects of this study were students of seventh grade in the 2020/2021 academic year as many as 20 students. The data analysis was carried out in three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and concluding. The data from this study were obtained by providing 5 items of mathematical problem-solving ability, distributing a questionnaire about self-confidence using a Likert scale in the form of a checklist, and conducting interviews. The results showed that there was a relationship between students' self-confidence and mathematical problem-solving abilities. From the questionnaire score category and the results of the problem-solving ability test given, it can be seen that 25% of students who have high self-confidence have good problem-solving skills because they meet all problem-solving indicators. Sixty percent of students who have moderate self-confidence have fairly good problem-solving abilities because they only meet part of the 4 problem-solving indicators. Fifteen percent of students belonging to the low category of self-confidence have problem-solving skills that are not good enough. The findings of this study can motivate teachers to raise students' self-confidence because students who have good self-confidence have good problem-solving abilities as well. The study's findings suggest that teachers should use methods and techniques to boost students' self-confidence in mathematics learning.","PeriodicalId":137292,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Research on Mathematics Instruction (JRMI)","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122403828","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The subjects of this research were teachers at SMAN 2 Tambang. Data collection techniques used interviews and questionnaires. It could be concluded that the most common difficulty was determining the learning media and learning process planning. The cause was the limitation of facilities, infrastructures, and unfordable media by the learners.
