Abstract

The pre service mathmatics teacher needs to have the competence of his mathematical literacy. According to NCTM (2014) the competence of mathematician teacher candidates must have problem solving abilities, communication, logic inference reasoning, connections and representations. Basic physics courses can be providers to equip the ability of graphical and mathematical representation of a physical phenomenon for math teacher candidates. Unfortunately, physics lectures for mathematics teacher candidates have been viewed more as a form of knowledge than as a form of thinking or a method of investigating in mathematical literacy. This is what causes the results of physics lectures have not shown significant significance to the competence of math teacher candidates. The researcher develops the structure of lectures, teaching materials, student worksheets, appropriate instruments and lecture methods to equip the graphic and mathematical representation capabilities of a physical phenomenon for mathematics student candidates. The method to be used in this research is mixed methods method with Embeded experimental model design. This method emphasizes the collection of development data by involving quantitative and qualitative data processing conducted simultaneously during the development process. The steps taken in this study include 5 steps, namely preliminary study, literature study, preparation, implementation and ending with analysis of results and preparation of reports. In this paper the researcher will describe the achievement of the development stage of the student worksheet which is oriented to the ability of construction of graphic and mathematical representation of a physical phenomenon in basic physics lecture for prospective math teacher. The Student Worksheet is developed for experimental activities by understanding the construction of mathematical graphs of a physical phenomenon for linear, quadratic and trigonometric functions
