Exploring Self-Regulated Learning and Their Impact on Students’ Mathematical Communication Skills on the Topic of Number Patterns With the Blended Learning System

This research aims to describe students’ MCS on the topic of number patterns with a blended learning system and describe profile students’ self-regulation learning (SRL) in Junior High School SMPN 8 Padang. The descriptive and qualitative method was adopted. Data were collected using questionnaires, tests, and interviews. The first step in taking the subject is the administration of an online learning SRL questionnaire through a Google form, followed by the result analysis. The second step is the administration of offline tests to class VIII students, while the third is an online interview activity through WhatsApp based on the SRL. The results showed that 40% were able to express mathematical ideas orally, in writing, and through demonstration and description. Furthermore,40% were able to explain their understanding of written mathematical presentations orally. Only 20% could communicate digitally, through the use of computer technology. The results also showed that 47.5% of students have MCS, which is in the medium category. Approximately 69% agree students enrolled in an offline course adopted self-regulated learning.
