Abstract

The purpose of this study was to describe the analogous thinking process of students in solving functional problems. This type of research conducted in this research is descriptive qualitative. This research was conducted on all the third-semester students taking online basic calculus courses in the 2020/2021 academic year in Mathematics Education Program (Tadris Matematika) Institut Agama Islam Negeri Curup. By using the purposive sampling technique, the sampling consisted of three students who were selected based on the students' mathematical dispositions, namely high, medium, and low dispositions. Based on the results of the research and discussion, it can be concluded that the following are: (1) the research subject does not understand how the actual analogy thinking stage is, the subject only performs the mapping and applying stages; (2) the students' mathematical disposition is quite good in working on the problems, but if it is seen in the problem solving, the students are not persistent, not thorough, have less curiosity and do not work hard in solving functional problems; and (3) students with high, medium, and low disposition levels have the same analogical thinking process. There is no difference in the solving of the problems. © 2023 American Institute of Physics Inc.. All rights reserved.
