Abstract
This study aimed to investigate classroom goal structures based on the teachers learning objectives for students in the mathematics classroom. The study used survey methods with involved 319 students at senior high school level. Data analysis based upon Rasch model as the framework of modern psychometric approach. The internal consistency and psychometric properties for quality of instruments, was appropriate. The results of this study showed that students tend to refuse to labeling as embarrassment behavior if any student who cannot answer or do math problems in the classroom. The students argue although answering math problems properly is a pride or achievement; but, create a judge poor students in mathematics should not occur in the classroom because typically all students are still in the learning stage. Another interesting side of this research findings is that male and female students have differences in looking at the learning climate of mathematics in relation to engaging in academic work. In the context of teacher-student interaction in the classroom, it is vital to consider that a constructive classroom situation and solid learning experienced can avoid to declining students academic motivation and achievement.

Abstract
Students understanding on the topic of quadratic equation and quadratic function is separated each other, whereas both are interconnected. This research aimed to formulate a didactic design, which will help junior high students understand the linkage between both topics. By employing a didactical design research (DDR), this research involved the process of repersonalization and recontextualization of quadratic function to explore the learning trajectories and learning obstacles within such a process. This design aimed to represent the context of the assigned problem, and was analyzed through the following steps: 1) the explorative prediction of students responses related to the assigned problem; 2) collaborative learning to lead the students in understanding the linkage of both concepts: quadratic equation and quadratic function. Assigned by a contextual problem related to quadratic function, the students could widen their understanding about quadratic equation, but simultaneously encountered difficulties in relating the topic with quadratic function. In this case, collaborative learning helped them in doing so.

Abstract
Educators in the university level have a great challenge in delivering introductory statistics course because most of students view that statistics is a difficult subject. That difficulty views of statistics affect on lazyness to learn and to joint in the statistics class. The purpose of this study was to identify students attitudes toward statistics based on gender and to examine the relationship between attitudes toward statistics (ATS) and academic achievement (AA). The sample was selected purposively as much as 118 students who joint in the introductory statistics course from two different field of studies in one of the universities in South Sumatra. The ATS was measured by six dimension, namely affective, cognitive competence, value, difficulty, interest, and effort. The AA was measured by the Grade Point Average and the final score of introductory statistics course. The data analysis used a multigroup structural equation model. The results showed that the ATS measurement model can be explained by the dimensions of value, interest, effort, and affective whereas the difficulty and the cognitive dimensions were not consistent in explaining its model both for men and women. The relationship between ATS and AA was no significant neither for men and women.

Abstract
Mathematics is often a frightening subject for students. Such conditions are caused by a stressful learning atmosphere, mathematics subjects that create anxiety. Anxiety experienced by students in learning mathematics has the potential to cause depression conditions on the mathematics. Based on this, a chromotherapy treatment was used to reduce the anxiety of elementary school students to mathematics. Chromotherapy is a treatment designed with the foundation that any color contains healing energy. The effect of color affects the work of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves and improves mood. Chromotherapy provides an element of relaxation, which from various studies found to reduce anxiety in individuals. This research uses single-subject design to five students of elementary school with high anxiety. Instruments used Mini Mathematic Anxiety Scale (MMAS) and observation. The results show that chromotherapy provides relaxation and reduces anxiety among students. Based on such things this therapy can be one alternative treatment in helping elementary school students cope with anxiety to the subjects of mathematics.
