KEEFEKTIFAN EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING PEMBELAJARAN MATEMATIKA MTs MATERI BANGUN RUANG SISI DATAR

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan keefektifan penerapan model experiential learning dan menentukan mana yang lebih efektif antara model experiential learning dan pembelajaran konvensionalpada pembelajaran matematika materi bangun ruang sisi datar ditinjau dari prestasi belajar dan apresiasi siswa terhadap matematika. Jenis penelitian ini adalah quasi-experiment dengan pretest-posttest nonequivalent comparison-group design. Populasi dan sampelnya adalah siswa Kelas VIII MTs Negeri Sidoharjo dan siswa Kelas VIIIA dan VIIIB. Untuk menguji keefektifan pembelajaran metamatika dengan model experiential learning dan konvensional digunakan analisis dengan uji proporsi. Untuk mengetahui perbedaan keefektifan pembelajaran matematika dengan model experiential learning dan konvensional, data dianalisis dengan menggunakan uji T2 Hotelling’s, dan uji t dengan kriteria Bonferroni untuk menentukan model pembelajaran manakah yang lebih efektif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penerapan model experiential learning lebih efektif dari pembelajaran konvensional pada pembelajaran matematika materi bangun ruang sisi datar ditinjau dari prestasi belajar dan apresiasi siswa terhadap matematika. Kata Kunci: model experiential learning, konvensional, prestasi belajar, dan apresiasi matematika.   THE EFFECTIVENESS OF EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING IN MATHEMATICS LEARNING  IN SUBJECT MATTER OF FLAT SIDE CONSTRUCT Abstract This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the experiential learning model and to determine which one is more effective between the experiential learning model and the conventional one in mathematics learning in subject matter of flat side construct viewed from the learning achieve-ment and students’ appreciationof mathematics. This study was a quasi-experimental study using the pretest-posttest nonequivalent comparison-group design. The research population comprised all Year VIII students, consisting of 4 classes of MTs Negeri Sidoharjo. From the population, two classes, Class VIIIA and Class VIIIB, were selected randomly as the research sample. To test the effectiveness of the mathematics learning through the experiential learning model and conventional learning, the proportion test was carried out. Then to compare the effectiveness of the two models, the data were analyzed using T2 Hotelling’s test, and the t-test to find out which of the two models was more effective. The results of the study show that the experiential learning model is more effective than the conventional in mathematics learning in subject matter of flat side construct viewed from the learning achievement and students’ appreciationof mathematics. Keywords: experiential learning model, conventional, learning achivement, and mathematics appreciation.
