摘要：This study describes the metacognition profile of female and male mathematics’
education students in understanding the concept of integral calculus in the category
of classifying and summarizing. This research method was an explorative method
with the qualitative approach. The subjects of this study were mathematics
education students at the University of Halu Oleo, totalling 47 students consisting
of 12 male and 35 female. The process of selecting research subjects began with
the provision of a mathematical ability test to 47 students taken from the question
bank for the college entrance test. From the results of the test, selected 1 male and
1 female each have a high mathematical ability. The results of this study were as
follows: There is no difference of metacognition profile between male and female
mathematics education students in understanding the indefinite integral concepts in
category classifying and summarizing. There was difference of metacognition
profile between male and female mathematics education students in understanding
the definite Integral concepts in category classifying and summarizing.
