Abstract

This research aimed to describe the mathematical modeling abilities of tudents based on the ability to think algebraically, the obstacles experienced and the form of scaffolding provided. The research uses descriptive and explorative qualitative methods. Data collection was carried out by written tests and in-depth interviews. The subjects were students of the Mathematics Education Study Program, Semarang State University in 2018/2019. The results obtained by subjects who have the ability to think critically high algebra are able to do mathematical modeling without experiencing obstacles that require scaffolding. Subjects who have the ability to think critically are able to do mathematical modeling, but it is not appropriate in suppose into variable so that modeling is made less effective because it is too much. Nevertheless, the subject is able to overcome the obstacles experienced without being given scaffolding. As for subjects who have low critical thinking skills are not able to do mathematical modeling well. This is because the subjects are not able to connect the suppose into variable that made to determine the form of information algebra and the core problem. To overcome these obstacles the subject was given an explanation scaffolding.
