Abstract

The aim of this research is to produce a set of PISA-like mathematics task with Indonesia natural and cultural heritage as a context which is valid, practical, to assess students' math literacy. This design research using a type of development research with formative evaluation. A total of 20 students of SMP Negeri 1 Palembang. Besides, ten experts were involved in this research to assess the feasibility of prototyping regarding content, context, and language. Walkthrough, documentation, questionnaire, test result and interviews are way to collect the data. This research produced a PISA-like math task is like many 12 categories of content, context, and process valid, practical and had a potential effect. The validity came empirical evaluation of validation and reliability testing of the small group. From the field test, we conclude that the tasks also potentially impact to the students' mathematical literacy in activating the indicators of each Fundamental Mathematical Capabilities. © Sriwijaya University 2011.
