Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the process of transforming students' thinking from simple to productive connectivity at the time of reflection for maximize the mathematical connections that students have constructed in the problem-solving process. The construction of students' thinking transformation process from a simple to productive connectivity was observed based on the completeness of the connective thinking network, which waa built on the problem-solving process using Thosio scheme. The purposive sampling technique was used to select three students who had a tendency to transform simple connective thinking to productive. Worksheets and think aloud recording of three students were analyzed by qualitative descriptive approach. In the process of students' conective transformation construction thinking, from simple to productive, it could be described construction process done by the students which were repairing errors of connection formed in network of simple connective thinking, and build connection not yet complete in network of simple conective thinking so as to form student thinking transformation from simple to productive connective. By and large, there were two construction processes in the transformation of simple connective thinking to productive at the time of reflection. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
