Analysis of Students' Mathematical Communication Ability in Solving Story Problems in View of Learning Styles

Abstract

The goal to be achieved in this study is to describe students' mathematical communication skills in solving word problems on sequences and series material. This type of research is qualitative research. The data collection used is to provide a test of communication skills to students. The subjects in this study were class XI students, totaling 21 students. Based on the results of students' mathematical communication skills in the high visual learning style, they are in the capable category. Mathematical communication skills with a visual learning style are in the underprivileged category. In the mathematical communication skills of students with low visual learning styles are in the capable category. In the mathematical communication skills of students with high auditory learning styles are in the capable category. In the mathematical communication skills of students with an auditory learning style are in the less capable category. In the mathematical communication skills of students with low auditory learning styles are in the less able category. In the mathematical communication skills of subject students with high kinesthetic learning styles are in the capable category. In the students' mathematical communication skills, the subject of kinesthetic learning styles is in the less capable category. In the mathematical communication skills of subject students with low kinesthetic learning styles in the incapacitated category.
