Abstract—Learning quadratic functions is to combine aspects
of geometry and algebra in which this topic becomes crucial for
students to understand fully. Unfortunately, they often
experience barriers in studying quadratic functions. This article
aims to elaborate on what learning obstacles the students
experience in studying quadratic functions. Each student has
different characteristics, so it leads to different difficulties as
well. By recognizing the learning obstacles, teachers can help
them overcome those barriers, so that the concept of
understanding on the topic of quadratic function is not gained
partially.
Index Terms—Learning obstacle, quadratic function, student
understanding.
