Abstract

This research is conducted due to low mathematical abstraction ability of junior high school students, since that mathematical abstraction is an important skill for both male and female students so that it is considered important to study gender factors for mathematical abstraction abilities. The objective of this research is to find out whether there is a significant difference between male and female mathematical abstraction abilities after using scientific approach supported by Excel VBA. This research was conducted to 16 female students and 15 male students of 9th grade at one of the junior high schools in West Bandung, Indonesia. The method in this study is quasi experimental by comparing the abstraction abilities of male and female students after being through by scientific approach assisted by Excel VBA. The instrument of this research is 3 questions about mathematical abstraction questions. The results of this study indicate that there are significant differences in mathematical abstraction between male and female students for some indicators after using the Scientific approach assisted by VBA Excel, this means the Scientific approach which assisted by Excel VBA can show the differences of mathematical abstraction between male and female students.
