Abstract

Mathematical representation is the way of communicating mathematical ideas and problems solutions. Communicating mathematical ideas requires external representation in the form of actions, verbal, symbolic, visual and real objects. This study aims to describe the form of representation of Deaf Students in solving mathematical story problems. The research was conducted by giving types of text questions as well as text and image questions to three DS at Banyuwangi State of Special Need High School. The results of student work analysis found that there are two types of mathematical representations that appear in solving story problems, namely verbal representation indicated by writing words, numbers, letters, sentences and oral and representation of mathematical expressions in the form of symbols and numbers. DS are able to representing, make mathematical symbols, explain in writing or sign language what they think are.
