Abstract

This study was carried out to the identification of non-generative thinking of students totaking a look at a parallelogram. The respondents involved in this study were 33 mathematics education students in the first semester. Descriptive used in this qualitative study. The implementation of the research used triangulation methods, namely the observation of the process of solving problems related to student levels, interviews, and reviewing documents (student work). Interviews in this study conducted on two students who indicated non-generative thinking. The analysiswas done by concluding the data obtained based on the results of observations that have been made. The findings show that from the 33 respondents who took the test, ten students answered the questions correctly. The ten students responded by doing the generative thinking. While six of them answered and indicated doing the non-generative thinking and the rest were wrong. Two respondents were chosen to represent the others. It can be concluded that there were two students did non-generative thinking in answering problems related to a parallelogram. Therefore, it is necessary to study more in the characteristics of non-generative thinking. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
