Abstract

Mathematical literacy is the ability of individuals to formulate, use, and interpret mathematics in various contexts. NCTM has formulated 5 competencies in mathematics learning, namely mathematical problem solving, mathematical communication, mathematical reasoning, mathematical connection, and mathematical representation. These five abilities are included in mathematics literacy abilities and must be possessed by all students. High-level thinking is a thought activity that includes aspects of problem solving, critical, creative, metacognitive to achieve certain goals, which in the domain of Bloom's Taxonomy conducts the analysis, synthesis and evaluation of a problem. The ability of mathematical literacy will encourage students to be able to think at a high level because in mathematics literacy students will be required to use all critical and creative thinking to be able to formulate and interpret mathematics in various contexts so that the highest level of mathematical skills (level 6) can be achieved.
