The Effectiveness of Al-Qurun Teaching Model (ATM) Viewed from Gender Differences: The Impact on Mathematical Problem-Solving Ability

Abstract

This research aimed to see the ability to solve mathematical problems between genders by applying the Al-Qurun Teaching Model. The researchers report the results of the research on the effectiveness of Al-Qurun Teaching Model on mathematical problem-solving ability viewed from gender differences. The research method used is 2 x 2 factorial design of quasi-experimental with random sampling technique. Data collection techniques used were the test method to see the results of students’ mathematical problem-solving ability. The normality test employed was Liliefors test and the homogeneity test used was the similarity of two variances. Hypothesis testing used was two-way ANAVA. The results of the study are: (1) There are differences between the Al-Qurun Teaching Model and the conventional teaching model on mathematical problem-solving ability and the use of Al-Qurun Teaching Model is more effective than the conventional teaching model, (2) There are differences in the results of mathematical problem-solving ability between female and male students and the results of mathematical problem-solving ability of female students are higher than the male students, (3) There is no interaction between learning and gender on mathematical problem-solving ability.
