Abstract
This study aims to analyze the misconceptions of high school students in solving mathematics test questions based on Education for Sustainable Development. This study was conducted in the odd semester of the 2023/2024 academic year with 57 participants from two different high schools in Pekanbaru. This study is a qualitative study with a descriptive research design, namely describing the misconceptions found in solving mathematics problems based on Education for Sustainable Development. This study used a mathematics test sheet and an interview sheet as instruments. The results showed that the most common types of misconceptions were missing schemes and incomplete models. The environmental domain was the Education for Sustainable Development domain that was most often unable to be solved by participants. The conclusion of this study is that misconceptions often occur when solving ESD-based mathematics problems because these types of problems are still unfamiliar or not the usual type of problems for students, so they are prone to misconceptions.
