Abstract

Mathematical literacy is the ability of students to formulate, apply, and interpret mathematics in various contexts in everyday life. The purpose of this study was to analyze students’ mathematical literacy in solving geometric material problems. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The research subjects consisted of 3 students who were selected using a purposive sampling technique from class VIII students in one of the schools in Surakarta. The three students took a test which consisted of one geometry material question that had been adapted to the PISA level 3 indicator questions. Then an unstructured interview was conducted using the results of the students’ work on the geometry material questions. The validity of the data was obtained through data triangulation, namely comparing data obtained from direct observation during tests and data from interviews (method triangulation). The results showed that students were able to formulate problems into mathematical forms but students were not yet able to apply concepts, facts, or procedures to solve problems. Students also have not been able to reflect on solutions or conclusions from the problems given.
