Abstract

The choice of learning approach carried out by the teacher can influence student activity and learning outcomes. This research aims to determine the application of the Culturally Responsive Teaching (CRT) approach in improving the activity and mathematics learning outcomes of class VII junior high school students. The subjects in this research were students in class VII-A of SMP Negeri 3 Sidoarjo for the 2022/2023 academic year, totaling 32 students. This research uses a research method in the form of Classroom Action Research (PTK) with 2 cycles and each cycle consists of 4 stages, namely the planning stage, action implementation, observation/observation, and reflection. Research data collection techniques include observation, tests and documentation. The results of the research showed that student learning activity in the pre-cycle was still in the low activity category, namely with a percentage of 51.95%, then in cycle I it increased to the moderate activity category with a percentage of 67.09%, and in cycle II it again increased to the high activity category. with a percentage of 79.10%. The percentage of students' classical mathematics learning outcomes in the pre-cycle was 43.75% (14 students in the complete category out of a total of 32 students), then in cycle I it increased to 75% (24 students in the complete category out of a total of 32 students), and in cycle II experienced another increase reaching 81.25% (26 students in the complete category out of a total of 32 students). Based on these results, it can be concluded that the application of the Culturally Responsive Teaching (CRT) learning approach can increase the activeness and mathematics learning outcomes of class VII-A students in the statistical material of presenting data at SMP Negeri 3 Sidoarjo for the 2022/2023 academic year.
