Abstract

The aim of this research is to determine the students’ attitudes toward physical mathematics III subjects in the Physics Education program at Jambi University. This study use the sequential explanatory model of mixed research with questions and interviews. The subjects were 89 students from physics education for quantitative data and 10 students for qualitative data. The results show the indicators of enjoyment in Mathematics Physics III and the indicators of social physics implications are in a good category with percentages for each data 45% and 52%, And then a fairly good attitude category for the normality of theoretical physicists with a percentage of 58%.
