Abstract

Soal kontekstual di Indonesia sering langsung menuliskan arti variabel, misalnya "misalkan x adalah harga satu noken", agar siswa mudah membuat model, tetapi belum diketahui apakah siswa benar-benar memakainya. Penelitian ini menguji hal itu, menelusuri kesalahan menghitung, dan memeriksa pengaruh cara penskoran terhadap penilaian kemampuan menafsirkan. Studi kasus ini melibatkan 17 siswa kelas IX sebuah madrasah negeri di Kota Jayapura yang mengerjakan enam soal bertahap tentang sistem persamaan linear dua variabel berkonteks Papua; tujuh di antaranya diwawancarai. Dua soal menyusun model (formulate) sama-sama menuliskan arti variabel. Saat yang dicari harga di antara data harga, hampir semua siswa berhasil (rerata 1,76 dari 2). Saat yang dicari berat di antara data yang didominasi harga, hampir semua gagal (rerata 0,18) dan banyak yang mencampuradukkan berat dengan harga. Gejala ini disebut interferensi jenis besaran: jenis angka yang mendominasi soal mengalahkan arti variabel yang tertulis. Kesalahan menghitung (employ) terutama berasal dari pengurangan bilangan besar, dan hanya satu siswa memeriksa jawaban pada kedua persamaan. Penskoran biasa berdasarkan kunci jawaban menilai kemampuan menafsirkan (interpret) sangat rendah (0,35). Penskoran bersyarat, yang berpatokan pada angka hasil siswa sendiri pada langkah sebelumnya, menaikkannya menjadi 1,00, tetapi seluruh kenaikan itu berasal dari jawaban identik yang kemungkinan disalin. Jadi, menuliskan arti variabel dalam soal tidak menjamin siswa mampu menyusun model sendiri. Penyusun soal perlu menyertakan soal yang besaran dicarinya berbeda jenis dari angka yang dominan, sedangkan guru perlu melaporkan kedua skor dan memastikan siswa bekerja mandiri.
