The Difference of Students Mathematical Problem Solving Ability and Self Regulated Learning Taught Contextual and Cooperative Learning Models

Abstract

This study aims to analyze wether (1) there is a difference in students' mathematical problem solving abilities and self regulation learning (SRL) taught contextual learning models with students taught cooperative learning models geogebra assisted; (2) there is an interaction between learning models with early mathematical abilities of students mathematical problem solving abilities and SRL. This research is a quasi experimental study. The population is the all of students of Santo Yoseph Private Middle School Medan grade VIII. The instruments used in this study are test mathematic problem solving abilities and questionnaire for SRL. The results of the study are there is difference in students mathematic problem solving abilities and SRL taught through geogebra assisted contextual learning models with students taught through geogebra assisted cooperative learning models and there is an interaction between learning and students' initial mathematical abilities towards students mathematical problem solving abilities and SRL
