Abstract

Abstrak. Konsep Matematika saling berhubungan. Namun belakangan ini muncul fakta bahwa kemampuan pemahaman konsep masih rendah. Sehingga diperlukan penerapan strategi pembelajaran baru untuk melatihnya, yaitu model pembelajaran Novick. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menyelidiki apakah kemampuan pemahaman konsep siswa pada materi kubus dan balok yang menggunakan model pembelajaran Novick lebih tinggi daripada siswa yang menggunakan pembelajaran konvensional. Metode yang digunakan adalah kuantitatif dengan jenis quasi eksperimen, desainnya nonequivalent posttest-only control group design. Populasi penelitian adalah siswa kelas VIII SMP Bhakti Pemuda, Tanjung Bintang , dengan sampel siswa kelas VIIIA (32 siswa) dan kelas VIIIB (31 siswa). Instrumen berupa tes uraian, tentang kemampuan pemahaman konsep sebanyak 8 butir pertanyaan. Hasil penelitian memperlihatkan rata-rata nilai kemampuan pemahaman konsep siswa kelas eksperimen sebesar 54,97 dan siswa kelas kontrol sebesar 45,27. Hasil dari uji Anakova data posttest diperoleh . Artinya, kemampuan pemahaman konsep siswa yang menggunakan model pembelajaran Novick lebih tinggi daripada siswa yang menggunakan pembelajaran konvensional.

 Abstract. Mathematical Concepts are interconnected. However, recently the fact emerged that the ability to understand concepts is still low. So it is necessary to apply a new learning strategy to train it, namely the Novick learning model. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether students' conceptual understanding skills on cube and block material using the Novick learning model were higher than students using conventional learning. The method used is quantitative with a quasi-experimental type, the design is nonequivalent posttest-only control group design. The population of the study was class VIII SMP Bhakti Pemuda, Tanjung Bintang, with samples of class VIIIA (32 students) and class VIIIB (31 students). The instrument is in the form of a description test, about the ability to understand concepts as many as 8 questions. The results showed that the average value of the concept understanding ability of the experimental class students was 54.97 and the control class students were 45.27. The results of the Ananova test for posttest data obtained . That is, the ability to understand concepts of students who use the Novick learning model is higher than students who use conventional learning.
