Investigating Students' Mathematical Creative Thinking Process through Eliciting Activities Learning Model (MEAs)
Mathematical creative thinking is needed by students to construct their thinking ideas in solving mathematical problems. Creative thinking processes can be stimulated through certain learning models, one of which is the Eliciting Activities Learning Model (MEAs). Learning motivation is one of the factors that can be the basis for students in developing mathematical creative thinking processes through the MEAs. In fact, the studies to investigate mathematical creative thinking processes in solving mathematical problems are minimal, especially in terms of high, medium, and low motivated students. This study aims to explore students' mathematical creative thinking processes through the MEAs for students who have high, medium, and low motivation. Through a qualitative approach, this research was conducted at SMP Inshafuddin Banda Aceh, Indonesia. The participants were 5 students who were selected from 21 students based on the level of learning motivation (1 high, 2 medium, and 2 low), which were obtained from the results of a learning motivation questionnaire. Furthermore, at the end of every 4 times of the learning mathematics that applies MEAs, participants were interviewed based on the rubric that meets the creative thinking rubric score. The results showed that the thinking process of students who had high learning motivation dominantly produced higher fluency and flexibility than students who had medium and low motivation. Apart from that, students who have high learning motivation are able to go through 4 stages of the creative thinking process, namely the preparation, incubation, illumination, and verification stages. Meanwhile, the thinking process of students who have moderate motivation is dominant to produce fluency and flexibility from students with low motivation. Moderately motivated students also go through 4 stages of the creative thinking process. Low-motivated students are only able to achieve fluency and only go through the preparation stage in the mathematical creative thinking process

Analisis Kesulitan Pemecahan Masalah Matematika Berdasarkan Tingkat Kemampuan Siswa di SMPN 1 Kuta Baro Aceh Besar
In solving mathematical problems, certain intellectual abilities are used to organize strategies in solving mathematical problems. However, in fact, the level of students' problem-solving abilities is still relatively low. This study is a qualitative descriptive study with the aim of identifying difficulties in solving mathematical problems on comparative material based on students' problem solving ability levels. With a purposive-sampling technique, three research subjects were taken from one of Year 8 classes from a junior high school in Aceh Besar, Indonesia. Data were collected through problem-solving tests and interviews. Data acquisition was analyzed according to Miles and Huberman's stages, namely data collection, data reduction, data presentation and drawing conclusions. The results of the research show that students with a high level of ability do not experience difficulties in solving problems both in understanding concepts, applying principles and verbal problems, while students with medium and low levels of ability experience difficulties in each indicator, namely difficulties in understanding concepts, applying principles and verbal problems
Gender-Based Analysis of Students' Critical Thinking in Solving Trigonometric Problems
Kemampuan Spasial Siswa SMP melalui ELPSA Framework
Spatial ability is essential in learning geometry, as it involves visual interpretation. To understand geometric relationships and properties, students need to develop their spatial skills. However, many students struggle with low spatial abilities, especially in constructing and visualizing geometric shapes. One reason for this is that students are rarely required to think critically about geometric transformations; instead, they often rely on rote learning and calculations. The ELPSA framework, which emphasizes active learning, is proposed as a way to enhance spatial abilities. This study aims to: 1) assess students' spatial abilities through the online ELPSA framework, and 2) describe their spatial profiles. The research involved 15 eighth-grade students at Banda Aceh, using a mixed-methods approach with sequential explanatory design. The subjects included four students with varying levels of spatial ability: high, medium, and low. The research instruments were spatial ability tests for quantitative data and interview guidelines for qualitative data. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, while qualitative data underwent data reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. Results showed that 62.22% of students demonstrated good spatial abilities. High-ability students excelled in at least two spatial indicators, indicating strong skills. Medium-ability students struggled to represent geometric shapes, and low-ability students showed poor spatial skills overal
