Abstract

To answer the PISA challenge, the Indonesian government made an assessment like PISA, that is the Minimum Competency Assessment (AKM) which evaluates students' reading literacy and mathematical literacy abilities. This research aims to analyze the content of 30 articles about Minimum Competency Assessment in mathematical literacy published in journals and proceedings indexed by Scopus, SINTA 1, and SINTA 2, as well as non-Scopus-indexed international proceedings from 2021 to 2023. This study employed content analysis with literature review. The instruments used in this research are article documents which are analyzed using content analysis guidelines which contain six main aspects to be reviewed. The results of the analysis can be concluded that the number of publications about AKM over the last three years has increased and will continue to do so. Most publications are on SINTA 2. The method most often chosen is qualitative research, followed by development research. The subjects studied were 8th grade students and analysis of students' abilities in working on AKM was the topic most researched. Almost all content, context, and process domains are used in the questions created. The ability of most students at all levels to work on AKM was still low. Several studies have been carried out to support students' AKM abilities, such as developing AKM tasks and learning media. Teachers are also given training on how to produce AKM tasks and school facilities have also been improved, even though there are still many obstacles. Recommendations to future researchers are to increase the diversity of research on AKM and improve students' mathematical literacy skills using other ways.
