Abstract

This research aims to determine the influence of students' learning activities on the ability to understanding mathematical concepts through the STEM Learning Approach Makerspace model based on PBL on SPLDV materials. As for the type of research Quasi-Experiments. The population in this study was 90 students who were distributed into 3 classes with 2 classes that sampled grades VIII A and VIII C. The sampling techniques in this study used randomized classes and data collection techniques in this study were tests and observations, while the research instruments used preliminary tests and final tests to measure the ability to understand mathematical concepts and observation sheets to see students' learning activities. Data analysis techniques using a two-way ANOVA test. The research showed that there is an influence of the PBL-based Makerspace STEM Learning Approach model on the ability to understand mathematical concepts, there is no influence on students' learning activities on mathematical concept comprehension capabilities, and there is no interaction between the PBL-based Stem Learning Approach Makerspace model and student learning activities on the ability to understand mathematical concepts. Conclusion, there is a positive direct effect of cognitive structures on the ability to understanding mathematical concepts.

Highlights

  • In this century, educational institutions such as schools and higher education must be able to score a superior generation (Anggraheni & Astuti, 2020; Ekawati et al, 2019; Nurochmah et al, 2019)

  • One of the emphasized in the education system that must run in Indonesia is the learning process of students in the class (Nurdyansyah, 2018) and the purpose of mathematics learning is that students have the ability to understand the concepts (Fitrah, 2017; Komarudin et al, 2020; Mawaddah & Maryanti, 2016a)

  • It can be interpreted that is accepted so that there is no interaction between the use of the PBL-based Makerspace STEM Learning Approach model and student learning activities towards understanding students' mathematical concepts

Summary

Introduction

Educational institutions such as schools and higher education must be able to score a superior generation (Anggraheni & Astuti, 2020; Ekawati et al, 2019; Nurochmah et al, 2019). One of the emphasized in the education system that must run in Indonesia is the learning process of students in the class (Nurdyansyah, 2018) and the purpose of mathematics learning is that students have the ability to understand the concepts (Fitrah, 2017; Komarudin et al, 2020; Mawaddah & Maryanti, 2016a). As part of the reform efforts, the Ministry of Education and Culture has taken the initiative to improve the competence of teachers and students in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) as well as create a learning experience that prepares students for the challenges of the 21st century (Wijaya et al, 2016; Zubaidah, 2019). In the implementation of learning determined student to achieved in the STEM
