The Effect of Cooperative Learning Type Think Pair Share with Autograph on the Mathematical Representation Ability and Self-efficacy

Abstract

This research attempts the effect of Cooperative Learning type Think Pair Share (TPS) with Autograph on the mathematical representation ability and self-efficacy students. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Cooperative Learning type TPS with Autograph to the students Mathematical Representation Ability and the effect of Cooperative Learning model type TPS with Autograph helping to the students Self-Efficacy. The research samples comprised 36 XI 5 graders (experiment I class) and 36 XI 6 graders (experiment II class) from a Senior High School (SMA) in Medan. We used a quasi experimental design with Cooperative Learning type TPS with Autograph and Cooperative Learning type TPS without Autograph as the independent variables. The dependent variables included the mathematical representation ability and students self-efficacy. The instrument used consisting of the initial mathematical abilities (KAM) test, mathematical representation ability test and self-efficacy questionnaire. The analysis is used two way ANOVA. The research findings indicate that there is a significant effect of Cooperative Learning model type TPS with Autograph to the students mathematical representation ability and there is a significant effect of Cooperative Learning model type TPS with Autograph to the students self-efficacy.
