This study aims to describe students' difficulties in translating word problems into mathematical models in algebra material. Using a qualitative approach, the subjects were seventh-grade students at SMP Negeri 2 Tasikmalaya in the 2024/2025 academic year. Data were collected through questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. The results show that students struggled to understand the meaning of word problems and convert them into correct equations. Common errors included misconceptions about algebraic symbols, such as treating variables as fixed numbers and misusing the equal sign. In addition, students had difficulty identifying essential information needed to construct a mathematical model. Learning activities that focused only on procedural calculations further contributed to these challenges. This study recommends the use of more contextual and meaningful learning approaches, such as Problem-Based Learning and Realistic Mathematics Education, to help students better understand the relationships within problems and accurately express them through appropriate mathematical representations..    Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan kesulitan siswa dalam menerjemahkan soal cerita ke dalam model matematika pada materi aljabar. Dengan pendekatan kualitatif, subjek penelitian adalah siswa kelas VII SMP Negeri 2 Tasikmalaya tahun ajaran 2024/2025. Data dikumpulkan melalui angket, wawancara, dan dokumentasi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa siswa mengalami kesulitan dalam memahami makna soal cerita dan menyusunnya menjadi persamaan yang tepat. Kesalahan yang muncul meliputi pemahaman yang keliru terhadap simbol aljabar, seperti menganggap variabel sebagai angka tetap dan tidak tepat menggunakan tanda sama dengan. Selain itu, siswa juga tampak kesulitan menentukan informasi penting yang diperlukan untuk membangun model matematika. Pembelajaran yang hanya berfokus pada prosedur perhitungan turut memperkuat kesulitan ini. Penelitian ini merekomendasikan penggunaan pendekatan pembelajaran yang lebih kontekstual dan bermakna, seperti Problem-Based Learning dan Realistic Mathematics Education, agar siswa dapat lebih memahami hubungan antar informasi dalam soal dan menyusunnya dalam bentuk model yang benar.

Technological literacy among high school mathematics teachers is a crucial aspect in realizing creative, interactive, and relevant learning to meet the demands of the 21st century. However, the reality on the ground shows that most mathematics teachers still have limited experience in improving technological literacy, particularly in the use of artificial intelligence (AI) as a learning support medium. This condition has implications for low innovation in the mathematics learning process. This community service activity aims to optimize the use of AI, specifically Generative-AI technology, in supporting mathematics learning in high schools. The target group is members of the High School Mathematics Subject Teachers' Conference (MGMP) throughout Grobogan Regency, Central Java Province, Indonesia. The implementation method includes workshops, interactive discussions, hands-on practice, and mentoring in the development of AI-based mathematics teaching materials, assessments, and learning media. The training materials include an introduction to the basic concepts of Generative-AI, effective prompting techniques, and practice using various AI applications to produce interactive and contextual teaching materials. Evaluation results showed that all training participants agreed or strongly agreed that this activity successfully improved their understanding of the basic concepts of Generative AI and their skills in operating AI applications for mathematics learning. Participants also reported increased confidence in integrating AI technology into their teaching practices, as well as gaining various relevant practical ideas for classroom implementation. High enthusiasm was evident in the 100% commitment of participants who expressed their readiness to implement AI technology in mathematics learning. Thus, this training not only contributed to improving teachers' technological literacy but also became a strategic step in encouraging innovative and adaptive transformation of mathematics learning in the digital era.
