Abstrak

This study aims to explore the difficulties of junior high school students in solving the surface area problem of the pyramid. This research is a qualitative study with an exploratory case study design. The exploration process in this study was carried out on 13 students of class VIII at a private junior high school in the Indramayu Regency. Collecting data in this study using tests, interviews, documentation, and field notes. While the data analysis technique used is to adopt a modification of data analysis from Miles and Huberman which consists of data collection, coding, data reduction, data display, and verification. Based on the research findings, it was found that the learning difficulties experienced by students when solving questions on the surface area of ​​the pyramid were: (1) difficulties in identifying the problems contained in the questions; (2) difficulty in connecting the concept of surface area with the concept of prerequisite material; (3) difficulty in determining the strategy for solving these questions; (4) difficulty in using operations that involve multiplying fractions or the radical form; (5) difficulties in using the formula for the surface area concept of a pyramid. Also, these findings have implications for teachers to be able to prepare to teach or learning material designs to overcome these difficulties.
