Upaya meningkatkan aktivitas dan hasil belajar matematika melalui penerapan model problem Based Learning pada materi sistem persamaan linear dua variabel siswa kelas VIII-1 MTsN 2 Aceh Besar

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to increase the activities and learning outcomes of Mathematics in the material of the Two-Variable Linear Equation System for class VIII-1 students of MTsN 2 Aceh Besar in the 2019/2020 academic year. The model used in this research is the Problem Based Learning model. The subjects of this study were students of class VIII-1 MTsN 2 Aceh Besar. The number of students is 32 students with 10 male students and 22 female students. This research was conducted in the 2019/2020 school year in a period of 3 months, from September 2019 to November 2019 in the odd se-mester. The research methodology is Classroom Action Research (PTK) consisting of two cycles and each cycle consisting of two meetings. Each cycle consists of planning, implementing, observing and reflecting. The research procedure consisted of pre-research, planning cycle one, implementing action cycle one, observing cycle one, reflecting cycle one, planning cycle two, implementing action cycle two, observing cycle two and reflecting cycle two. The data collection technique is to collect test scores that are carried out at the end of each lesson in each cycle using a question instrument (written test). Obser-vation data was carried out by looking at the activeness of students in the learning process. Data were analyzed by means of percentage statistics. The results showed that there was an increase in the com-pleteness of student learning outcomes from 34.37% in the pre-study increased to 59.37% in the first cycle and increased to 84.37% in the second cycle. Student learning activities have increased from suffi-cient to good categories and good categories have increased to be very good. The application of the Problem Based Learning model can increase the activities and learning outcomes of Mathematics in the material of the Two Variable Linear Equation System for class VIII-1 students of MTsN 2 Aceh Besar in the 2019/2020 academic year.
