Abstract

The purpose of this research was to find out the thinking processes of a concrete student in solving two- dimensional problems. The research method used is descriptive qualitative. The research subjects were two students taken using purposive sampling. The  instrument used  was  the  Test  of  Logical Operations and problem-solving tests. Stages of data analysis used are researching all data, making a cognitive classification of students, choosing concrete students to be used as research subjects, reviewing the results of concrete student work in solving mathematical problems, verify data and data sources that have been classified and transcribed in the presentation or exposure of data. The results showed that at the stage of understanding the problem and re-checking the answers, concrete students use the assimilation at the stage of planning to solve the problem of doing the disequilibration. At the stage of carrying out a plan to solve a problem, concrete students carry out the accommodation. During this study, it was found that students 'habits in mathematical problem-solving did not plan to solve problems, did not re-examine answers, and there were students' habits by interpreting the final results of  problems. It  can  be  concluded that  the  students' concrete thinking processes in  solving  two- dimensional problems vary according to the stages of problem-solving.
