Abstract

The purpose of this research is to describe students’ mathematical connection in making programming using GUI (Graphical User Interface). The subjects of this research are the students of Mathematics Education who are taking the Programming Language Course. The data were collected through the final task for making learning media of mathematics using GUI Matlab, field notes, and interviews. The data were analyzed based on mathematical connections with other sciences (Programming Languages). The result showed that students connect: (1) mathematics algorithms with flowcharts, (2) mathematics operations with operator symbols on Matlab, and (3) mathematics material with programming commands on Matlab. Students compose the algorithm before making learning media which then changed into the form of flowchart. Then, flowcharts created by students alongwith the algorithm are compiled. Learning media created by students involves the operator symbols on Matlab, which includes arithmetic, relational, and logical operators. Script of learning media created by students using programming commands on Matlabis in line with mathematics materials selected by students.
