Designing of problems to measure mathematization ability

Abstract

This study uses a study design research with the aim to explain the mathematical thinking to measure the mathematization aspects of the material object pattern in row configuration with the chosen subject is junior high school grade 8 students who were 3 students. This research process consists of five stages: preliminary design, focus group discussions, testing and interviews, as well as a retrospective analysis.The data analysis technique is qualitative techniques. In Question 1, all students answered correctly, students 1 shows the appearance of geometrization and optimization, students 2 shows the appearance of geometrization, connecting, formalization, and optimization, students 3 shows the appearance of geometrization, connecting, and optimization.
