Abstract. This research implements the use of forensic science in proving students' cognition in
solving mathematical problems. Documents of solving mathematical problems that are used as
facts in justifying the emergence or absence of errors in cognition include cognitive and
psychomotor domains. Cognitive domain data in its operations uses a student's problem-solving
ability document which is compiled in the form of a problem-solving ability test. As for the data
in the psychomotor domain, it uses video screenshots when students solve problems that are
solved using the help of the application. Data were collected from students of the Mathematics
Education Department who programmed the ICT-Based Mathematics Learning Media course in
the Even Semester of 2020/2021. The cognitive domain is collected through a learning
achievement test in the form of an essay, in addition to observing the construction of teaching
material knowledge completeness. While the psychomotor domain is collected through the
Camtasio Studio application which is used to record the learning experiences of individual
learners in solving problems. The collected data are grouped using the K-Means algorithm. By
comparing each category of students from the results of the analysis of the cognitive domain and
the characteristics that appear in each category, then the forms of errors that still appear in each
category of students' abilities are formulated. The results obtained are expected to be
recommended in improving problem solving cognitive processes, especially for students in the
Department of Mathematics Education.
