Abstract
Mathematical connection ability which tends to be low is due to the inability of students to make connections between one concept and another. This research is a phenomenological study which aims to describe the mathematical connection ability of students in solving functional derivative application problems and to see the process of student performance in solving problems during the Covid-19 pandemic, where the learning process does not normally run. The research subjects in this study were 3 students of class XI SMA in Medan. The technique of taking the subject used purposive sampling and snowball sampling. The instruments used were tests and interviews. The data techniques used were tests, interviews, documentation, field notes. Check the validity of the data using triangulation. Data analysis techniques used the Miles and Huberman model through data reduction, data presentation, and retrieval.
