Abstract

Abstract: Math is a subject that requires students to think using logic. Not a few students only receive raw mathematic learning without a concept understanding of the intent and purpose of learning. The purpose of writing is this scientific paper to know the description of students' understanding of the concept on inequality material. Indicators of understanding of the concept among other things: the student can understand of problems resolving and explaining verbally; presentation of mathematical models and classifying objects based on mathematical concepts requirements; use of appropriate mathematical procedures and their application in the relationship between concepts and procedures; and the ability to apply and develop concepts by algorithm. This research is a descriptive qualitative analysis of understanding of the concept. The data in this study were collected by tests and interviews. The results showed that the student has poor understanding of the concept of material inequality. Students can be encouraged by internal order to overcome the lack of understanding of mathematical concepts.
