Abstract

This research tries to assess the student's ability on math. This research involved 159 students at Islamic Junior High School. We evaluated the student's ability on math based on basic statistics and geometry. The materials created became 40 items mathematics final exam and has been implemented by students on May, 2018. The data were analysed using the Rasch Measurement Tool (RMT). The results indicated are capable of reaching the final exam (+1.30 logit). Further, determining the diagonal line from the side of a beam is the most blank question for students. Instead, determine the value of the equation to calculate the pyramid volume that is most easily achieved by the entire students. The difference to students in mathematics also appeared on our analysis. Another impressive phenomenon is the quality of the math test still needs to be reviewed. Furthermore, there are also students who are not optimally answering math tests. This suggests the instructor to establish the quality of learning on math in the classroom. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
