Abstract
Mathematical connection is used for problem solving. Students’ mathematical connection can be viewed while solving word problems. This study aims to describe mathematical connection process of junior high school student in solving word problems. The type of this study is a case study. Student’s connection data was collected by using test and interview. Furthermore, students’ mathematical connection process was analyzed based on three types of connection; modelling connection, concept connection, and procedure connection. The result of this study indicated that student utilizes all known information and connects all of the given information, therefore the relevant answer is obtained. This study reveals that mathematical connection process is shown by students’ ability to translate the problem into mathematics models and connect mathematical concept and procedure.
