Abstract

Inspiration plays a significant role in sparking or enhancing the learning motivation of prospective mathematics teachers (PMTs). Inspiration will also influence the mathematical identity of PMTs’ when they become professional mathematics teachers. A mathematics teacher educator (MTE) can be a source of inspiration for PMTs; hence, a study must identify and explain why an MTE is considered inspiring. This study attempts to develop the theory of inspiring MTEs profiles based on the experience of PMTs. This study included 21 students and 7 lecturers of the Mathematics Education Department in a public university in Indonesia. This qualitative research was conducted employing a grounded theory constructivist approach. The findings revealed that inspiring MTEs possessed the following characteristics: “creating a sense of comfort, being knowledgeable, being motivating, providing fun and enjoyable learning, imparting new insights and comprehension, and being disciplined and authoritative.” According to this theory, an inspiring MTE creates a sense of comfort through their gracious, friendly, humble, and humorous personality. Fun and enjoyable learning in this study is learning that provide a sense of comfort, fun learning, interactive learning, and carrying out evaluations. MTEs give new insight and understanding by explaining in detail, systematically, and easily understood, sharing creative ideas, and providing scaffolding. Implications of this finding are discussed.

Abstract

Abstrak. Inspirasi berperan penting dalam memicu atau meningkatkan minat belajar. Inspirasi tersebut juga akan membentuk identitas matematis Calon Guru Matematika (CGM) setelah bekerja sebagai guru matematika profesional di masa depan. Pendidik Guru Matematika (PGM) dapat menjadi sumber inspirasi bagi CGM, sehingga penelitian untuk memahami dan menjelaskan profil PGM yang menginspirasi adalah kebutuhan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk melakukan teoritisasi profil PGM yang menginspirasi berdasarkan pengalaman CGM. Penelitian kualitatif ini menggunakan pendekatan constructivist grounded theory dengan melibatkan 21 mahasiswa Pendidikan Matematika semester II-XIII. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa PGM yang menginspirasi memiliki profil: memberikan rasa nyaman, berwawasan luas, memotivasi, memberikan pembelajaran yang asyik dan menyenangkan, memberikan wawasan baru dan pemahaman, disiplin dan berwibawa. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemahaman adalah aspek yang paling dibutuhkan oleh CGM.  Kualitas kepribadian, kemampuan pedagogis dan matematis serta hubungan baik yang dibina PGM mengoptimalkan pemahaman sehingga CGM terinspirasi.Kata Kunci: calon guru matematika, constructivist grounded theory, profil pendidik matematika, pedagogi inspirasi, guru inspiratif.

Abstract

AbstractMathematical Creative Thinking Ability (MCTA) is a crucial skill for students in their mathematics learning. However, limited research exists on the inhibiting factors of Mathematical Creative Thinking (MCT), specifically among junior high school students. Therefore, this study aims to explore these inhibiting factors among junior high school students using a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data were collected through assignment tasks, observations, and interviews, wherein the tasks were designed as open-ended questions. The study identified themes generated from the data analysis, revealing several factors inhibiting students’ MCT. These factors include negative perceptions towards mathematics and its learning, intrinsic motivation, inadequate understanding of basic concepts, the experience of learning loss, low self-efficacy towards open-ended questions, low procedural understanding of open-ended questions, and insufficient teacher competence.Keywords: Mathematical creative thinking, school mathematics, open-ended problem, case study.AbstrakKemampuan berpikir kreatif matematis (KBKM) adalah kemampuan esensial yang harus dimiliki siswa pada pembelajaran Matematika. Akan tetapi, belum banyak penelitian yang membahas faktor penghambat berpikir kreatif matematis (BKM) siswa menengah pertama. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi faktor penghambat BKM siswa menengah pertama. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus. Data dikumpulkan melalui pemberian tugas, melakukan pengamatan, dan melakukan wawancara. Tugas yang dikerjakan oleh partisipan adalah tipe soal open-ended. Temuan pada penelitian ini merupakan tema-tema yang dihasilkan dari analisis data. Berdasarkan temuan yang diperoleh, faktor-faktor yang menghambat BKM siswa adalah memiliki persepsi negatif terhadap Matematika dan pembelajarannya, motivasi intrinsik, pemahaman konsep dasar yang rendah, mengalami learning loss, efikasi diri yang rendah terhadap soal open-ended, pemahaman prosedural yang rendah terhadap soal open-ended, dan kompetensi guru yang kurang memadai.Kata kunci: Berpikir kreatif matematis, Matematika sekolah, soal open-ended, studi kasus.

Abstract

Abstract: Mathematical creativity has become increasingly significant in education, emphasizing originality, innovative solutions, and informed decision-making. However, a notable research gap exists in understanding how junior high school students creatively solve open-ended geometry problems. This study addressed this gap by exploring how students tackle such problems and constructing a mathematical creative process model. The research involved eight 7th-grade students from a public junior high school in North Kalimantan, Indonesia. A qualitative research approach, a case study strategy, was employed, utilizing observations, students’ answer sheets, and interview-based tasks to gather detailed insights into the students’ problem-solving processes. We implemented replicating the finding strategy and considered saturation to enhance the research quality. The findings revealed a six-phase model of the mathematical creativity process: reading, problem selection, and exploration; experiencing perception changes; looking for and generating ideas; undergoing incubation; implementing ideas; and verifying solutions. Self-regulation emerged as a crucial factor influencing student engagement and success in the creative process. Notably, the most creative student in this study demonstrated active actions during problem-solving through all phases, underscoring the importance of self-regulation. The study concludes that self-regulation and also incubation are pivotal in creative problem-solving. These insights provide valuable guidance for educators and researchers aiming to enhance mathematical creativity in the classroom, emphasizing the need for strategies that support self-regulation and innovative problem-solving abilities.        Keywords: geometry, mathematical creative process, open-ended problems, case-study.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.23960/jpmipa/v25i1.pp66-86
