Problem solving investigation on linear equation of two variables using independent learning of student

Abstract

Mathematics is a field of study that are useful in solving various problems in everyday life that requires a skill and the ability to solve those problems. In this research, the author examines the constraints faced by the students on the material SPLDV. In this research, the author examines the constraints faced by the students on the material SPLDV. The author tried to examine how to resolve the problem of the students by applying a model of learning. This research aims to find out whether there are significant effects between independent learning model of problem-solving ability against Shiva on the material SPLDV of Class VII MTsN Batang Angkola. This research is quantitative research with experimental methods. The population of this research is the overall grade VIII MTsN Batang Angkola consisting of 5 classes as much as 175 people, samples taken from the class VIII4 and VIII2. With the number of 35 samples of students in the class VIII4 as class experiments and 35 students in control classrooms as VIII2. Data-collecting instruments is a test that is given twice, before being given treatment (pretest) and after (posttest) the treatment given. Data processing and data analysis was done using the formula t-test. Based on the results of a test of the hypothesis, retrieved thitung = 2.48 ttabel > 1.6675 0.05 significant level. Based on those results, the conclusion to be drawn there are significant effects between independent learning model against Shiva’s problem solving on SPLDV material class VIII MTsN Batang Angkola.
