Development of Math Modules Based on Active Learning Type the Power of Two in the Junior High School Curriculum

Modules in learning emphasize more on the activeness and activity of students. This study aims to develop a mathematics module based on an Active Learning (AL) strategy with the Active Learning (AL) type, namely The Power of Two (PT). This study uses an RD research design with the ADDIE model, which consists of 5 stages: analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. This study involved three validators in assessing the validity of the module and 12 small group students to test student responses to the module, which was used to determine the practicality of the module. Based on the research results, it is known that the module developed has very valid criteria, with a percentage of 91.48% by two expert lecturers and a mathematics teacher. The results of student response tests used to assess the practicality of the developed module have very practical criteria, with a percentage of 90.22% by students. This shows that the mathematics module developed based on an Active Learning (AL) strategy with The Power of Two (PT) type is very valid and very practical.

Mathematical model of student learning behavior with the effect of learning motivation and student social interaction

This study aims to determine the mathematical model of student learning behavior. The model is built by analogizing the spread of learning behavior with infectious diseases, which is called the SEIR model. The survey was conducted through filling out a questionnaire on the learning behavior of junior high school students with a population of 1,143 students. The results of the simulation model show that the peak of students' vulnerability to changes in learning behavior increases rapidly in the first two days and will be stable when passing the 150th day. The results of the simulation of the SEIR mathematical model with an incubation period of 365 days found that student learning behavior in Non-Boarding Schools will be stable in on day 198, while in Boarding Schools it will be stable on day 201. Infection cases in Boarding Schools fell to 0 on day 25 while in Non-Boarding Schools decreased on day 21, meaning that infections occurring in Boarding Schools were slower and more resistant long, meaning that the influence of the social environment is very significant on student learning behavior. This study also serves as material for policy formulation for the Aceh Provincial Government regarding the junior high school curriculum.
