Abstract
The quality of the results of educational research is very dependent on the quality of the instruments to obtain the research data. The quality of the research instrument is determined by two things, namely, validity and reliability of the instrument. Various methods and formulas can be used to prove validity and estimate the reliability coefficient of an instrument. The aimed of the study were: 1) Describe the results of the preparation of thesis research instruments of matematical education program students, UNNES Postgraduate. 2) Analysing the quality of thesis research instruments of mathematical education program studenta, UNNES Postgraduate. The population in this study is the thesis of students of the mathematics education master program of the UNNES Postgraduate who have graduated in 2016, 2017, and 2018 totaling 119. The sample selection technique uses random sampling, sample size 10, consists of 2 thesis qualitative methods, 2 thesis development methods , and 6 theses of combined methods, instruments in this study in the form of observation sheets. Data is analyzed qualitatively. The results of the study showed that the thesis research instruments of the Mathematics Education Program students of the UNNES Postgraduate through instrument testing. The results of the instrument trial analysis include item analysis and estimated instrument reliability coefficients. Item analysis includes item validity test, item difficulty index, and item different power index.
