Abstract

Mathematical communication ability is the ability to convey what is known by using mathematical sentences. If students have mathematical communication skills, then students can identify everyday problems that can be solved with mathematics and use mathematical language to clarify and solve existing problems. One of the factors of differences in communication skills is self-efficacy. This study aimed to analyze mathematical communication skills viewed from self-efficacy. The subjects of this study were the students of class VIII A of SMP Negeri 22 Semarang in the academic year 2021/2022. The data collection techniques used in this study were observation and interviews about the students’ work. Triangulation was used to obtain valid data to increase the credibility of this study. Miles and Huberman’s model was used for data analysis in this study. The result of this study indicate that; (1) students with high self-efficacy can fulfill most of the assessment rubrics of mathematical communication skills indicators; (2) students with moderate self-efficacy have sufficient ability on interpreting mathematical ideas indicator; (3) students with low self-efficacy have sufficient ability on expressing mathematical ideas indicators and less ability on interpreting mathematical ideas indicator.
