PENGARUH PENDEKATAN STEAM DAN MOTIVASI BELAJAR TERHADAP HASIL BELAJAR MATEMATIKA SISWA KELAS V SD

Abstract

This research was conducted with the aim of analyzing the effect of the STEAM approach and learning motivation on mathematic learning result for the fifth grade of Elementary School. This study uses a quasi-experimental method. The population for this study were the students in the fifth grade at Elementary School in cluster two at Parittiga District. The samples were taken by using a random sampling technique The instrument that used in this research is a matter of pretest and posttest of students' mathematic and studenst’ motivation questionnaires. The data analysis technique that used in this research was statistical analysis with two-way ANOVA technique. Based on the calculation result, the research result are as follow: (1) There are differences in mathematics learning result between students who are taught using the STEAM approach and those who are taught using the conventional approach. This is based on the two-way ANOVA statistical test which states that the significance for the STEAM approach category is 0.000, which means < 0.05. (2) There is an interaction effect between the STEAM approach and students' learning motivation on mathematics learning result. This is based on the two-way ANOVA statistical test which states that the significance for the STEAM approach category and learning motivation is 0.004 which means < 0.05. The conclusion of this study is that there is an effect of using the STEAM approach and learning motivation on mathematics learning outcomes in fifth grade of elementary school.
