Implementation of Index Card Match Learning Model with Problem Posing Approach Assisted by MATLAB Software to Improve Students’ Problem Solving Ability

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the steps of the Index Card Match learning model with the problem posing approach assisted by MATLAB software and its effect on the problem solving ability of high school students. This research is a quasi-experimental research with non-equivalent control class design. The population in this study were all students of class XI Senior High School 2 Kuningan, with purposive sampling technique taken two classes as a sample. A distinctive feature of this combined model is that students make their own questions and answers on separate cards, so that after the cards are collected and randomized, students are asked to find suitable questions and answers. While the results of the data analysis showed the average initial problem solving ability of students in the experimental class is equal to the average initial ability of students in the control class with a significance value of 0.212. But after the treatment, there were differences in the average problem solving ability in the experimental class and control class that is equal to 3.38 and p-value of -2.563 with asymp. sig 0.010, rejection for H0 which means the mathematical problem solving ability in the experimental class is better than control class.
