What I can reflect about psychological aspects if the student is confronted with the following questions?

On Saturday 6 December 2008, I have observation to know psychological aspects if the student is confronted with the following questions:

1. Determine function formula g : x ---> x² – 1 and determine function value for x = - 4 and x = 3 !

2. Determine h(-5) if h : x ---> -3x + 4 and determine value if h (c) = - 8 !

From result of observation, I can get the following data:

1. From three student of class 1 at SMP N 2 Manisrenggo, altogether confess that:

Before doing the questions, they have anxiety.

Moment do the questions, they feel hopeless

After doing the questions, they sneaking with their answers which it is correct or is wrong.

Their reason is they never get the material previously. After confirmation with their mathematics teacher, their teacher say that the material is never taught in class 1 because the material is material in class 2.

2. From two student of class 1 at SMP N 2 Manisrenggo, altogether confess that:

Before doing the questions, they feel happy because the questions is easy

Moment do the questions, they feel spirits because the material have been taught previously After doing the questions, they feel peaceful because they sure that their answers is correct.

3. From one student of class 1 at SMP N 2 Manisrenggo, she confess that:

Before doing the questions, she feel anxiety because she rather forget the material.

Moment do the questions, she feel spirits because she have started to remember the material After doing the problem, they feel peaceful because she sure that their answers is correct.

From data, I can conclude that:

1. Student will feel anxiety if the student is confronted with the questions because they have never accepted material in question and if they forget about the material.

2. Student will feel happy if the student is confronted with the questions because they have accepted material in questions and remember about the material.

3. Student will feel spirits if the student is confronted with the questions because they have accepted items in problem and remember about items

4. Student will be peaceful if the student is confronted with the questions because they sure that their answers is correct.
