PERBEDAAN PENINGKATAN KEMAMPUAN KOMUNIKASI DAN KONEKSI MATEMATIS SISWA MELALUI PEMBELAJARAN KONTEKSTUAL DENGAN KOOPERATIF TIPE STAD DI SMP AL-WASHLIYAH 8 MEDAN
Abstract: The objectives of
this study are to investigate: (1) The diffrences of improving students’
mathematical communication ability in contextual learning and cooperative
learning type STAD at SMP Al-Washliyah 8 Medan, (2) The diffrences of improving
students’ mathematical connection ability in contextual learning and
cooperative learning type STAD at SMP Al-Washliyah 8 Medan This study is an
experimental research there were six classes of Grade VII, the samples were
taken two classes randomly. The first class was treated by using contextual
learning and the second class was treated
by using cooperative learning type STAD. The instruments which were used;
Mathematical Communication ability test, and Mathematical Connection ability
test. The instruments were eligible content validity and reliability about 0,81
and 0,82 to mathematical commmunication and connection ability. The Data
analyzed by appling multivariate analysis (MANOVA). The results reveal that
this study, generally the students were treated by contextual learning are
better than the students were treated by cooperative learning type STAD. Based on the study, the
reseacher suggested (1) Contextual learning in teaching mathemaics for
improving students’mathematical
communication and connection ability would become an alternative for
applying innovative mathematical learning. (2)
Students’activity through contextual learning categorized as either.
This study is also expected to be useful for mathematics teacher to created
good atmosphere and give a chance to the sudents for presenting their idea by
themselves.
