Behaviour analysis of students in solving mathematics word problem

The purpose of this research was to identify the behaviour of students with auditory learning style in solving mathematics word problem on geometry material. The procedure was giving a test of mathematics word problem to students and interviews to representatives of students have an auditory learning style. The result of the research found that behaviours of students with auditory learning style demonstrated in solving mathematics word problems on geometry material showed the category of problem solving behaviour namely DTA-not proficient, DTA-Proficient and DTA-Limited of context. Thus, it can be said that the students with auditory learning style in solving mathematics word problem have behaviour solving problem still not optimal. Therefore, it is important for the teachers to consider auditory learning style of students in solving mathematics word problem to design and to plan better mathematics learning.
