Abstract

This research aimed to describe the profile of understanding layers the concept of the function's derivative and folding back college student prospective teachers of mathematics by gender. This study used a quatitative descriptive approach. The data obtained is validated, then the analysis step-by step reduction, data presentation, categorization, interpretation, and inference. The analysis process is guided to understanding of the model which hypothesizes Pirie-Kieren owned eight layers understanding. The result showed that there was no difference between the achievemant of a layers of the subject of women and mand, both of them have an indicator layers of understanding ie; primitive knowing, image making, image having, property noticing, mormalising, observing and structuring, then reaching also the first indicator (In1) of inventising layer, and indicators "ask question abaout graphs the third degree polynomial function" that leads to the second indicator (In2) of inventising layer. Based on the indicators of these, both subject distinc 10 (ten) items the process of achieving this understanding. Women performed twice folding back the form of "off-topic", and man made that once. Instead of man performed twice folding back the form "working on the deeper layers", both subject do not perform folding back the form "cause discontinuous".
