Abstract

The focus of this research is to develop strategies to determine effective methods that can be applied in online mathematics learning and assessment during Covid-19 pandemic era. Various teaching challenges through distance education require lecturers to be able to use an e-learning platform as a means of online learning and assessment. This study uses a literature study method using several previous studies related to this topic. Based on the results of this study, there are some strategies and online mathematics assessments expected to be suitable for assessing students^ ability to identify complex problems by means of critical thinking to solve mathematical problems. The importance of interactive, creative, and innovative learning is an important indicator in the mathematics learning process in accordance with the current pandemic conditions.
