摘要：This study aims to describe the ability of students to solve mathematical problems according to their theory. The method used in this study is descriptive qualitative. Data collection techniques used in this study are observation, tests and interviews. Based on the results of simple statistical analysis found that students with a high level of initial knowledge think algorithmically in solving mathematical problem solving problems that is able to understand the problem correctly and smoothly. For students with an initial level of knowledge they are thinking algorithmically and are not perfect in solving problem solving problems. Then students with low initial knowledge level think heuristically in solving mathematical problem solving problems.
其他摘要：This research aimed to describe students’ ability in solving mathematics problems according to Polya theory. According to writer’s experience in the subject of basic mathematics, the students had low ability in solving mathemathics problems. Therefore, the writer used the descriptive qualitative method to analyze problem-solving of mathematics according to Polya theory of semester two of IAIN students. Test and interview were used in collecting data. Based on analysis of simple statistic, it was found that students, whose high prior knowledge thought algorithmically in solving the question of problem-solving of mathematics, could understand the problems correctly and fluently. Students whose moderate prior knowledge thought algorithmically and not completely solved the questions of problem-solving. Furthermore, s tudents whose low prior knowledge thought heuristic in solving the questions of problem-solving of mathematics.
