Efektivitas Penggunaan Model Pembelajaran Generatif dengan Alat Peraga Puzzle pada Materi Teorema Pythagoras terhadap Kemampuan Pemecahan Masalah Matematis

Abstract

This research aims to determine students' mathematical problem solving abilities in learning using a generative learning model (Generative Learning) with puzzle props using Pythagorean theorem material in class VIII MTsN 11 Tabalong. This type of field research with experimental methods and a quantitative descriptive research approach is used to collect data using tests, namely problem-solving ability tests which have been tested for validity by expert validators. The sampling technique is purposive sampling, namely classes VIII B and VIII C. Data collection techniques include: test methods, documentation and interviews. The research results show: (1) The mathematical problem solving abilities of students in the experimental class with a class average score of 73.38 are in the good category. (2) The students' mathematical problem solving abilities in the control class with a class average score of 63.19 are in the sufficient category (3) There is a significant difference between students' mathematical problem solving abilities in learning with and without using generative learning models. ) with puzzle teaching aids on Pythagorean theorem material in class VIII MTsN 11 Tabalong.
