ANALYSIS OF STUDENTS’ COMMUNICATION ABILITIES AND MATHEMATICS LOGIC THINKING IN GENERATIVE LEARNING WITH SCIENTIFIC APPROACH OF CLASS XI STUDENTS MAJORING IN HEALTH ANALYS AT SMK KESEHATAN MEGA REZKY IN MAKASSAR
ABSTRACT: The research is a
combination of quantitative-qualitative (mixed method). The design of mixed
method used is Concurrent Triangulation Design aims to describe be
communication ability and mathematics logic thinking of students in generative
learning and to discover the improvement of communication ability and
mathematics logic thinking of students in generative learning of class XI
students Majoring in Health Analys at SMK Kesehatan Mega Rezky in Makassar. The
population of the research were all of the students in class XI at SMK
Kesehatan Mega Rezky in Makassar. The sample consisted of one class, namely
class XI Majoring in Helath Analys as the experiment class taught by using
generative learning model chosen by using random sampling technique. The
subjects of the research were three students consisted of one student with high
mathematics ability, one student with medium mathematics ability, and one
student with low mathematics abilitiy. The data of research consisted of mathematics
communication data and mathematics logic thinking ability data. The instruments
used in collecting the data were mathematics communication ability test,
mathematics logic thinking ability test, learning implementation observation
sheet, and interview guidance. The data of mathematics communication ability
and mathematics logic thinking were analyzed by using descriptive and
inferensial analysis and analyzed qualitatitvely. The results of the research
reveal that : (1) the implementation of generative learning model in
Circumference nd Area of Two Dimensional Figure material is well implemented,
(2) the improvement of students’ communication abilities after being taught by
implementing generative learning model with average 0.63 is in medium
classification, (3) the improvement of students’ mathematics logic thinking
abilities after being taught by implementing generative learning model with
average 0.59 is in medium classification, (4) mathematics communication ability
in generative learning such as the subject who have high, medium, and low
mathematics abilities have ability to state mathematics ideas in writing and
drawing it, although the picture/sketch made by the subjects with high and low
mathematics ability are still not correct. Then, the subject who have high,
medium, and low mathematics abilities have ability to interpret and evaluate
mathematics ideas in writing although the subject who have high, medium, and
low mathematics ability can only write most of the reason/proof which are
correct. Moreover, the subjects who have high, medium, and low mathematics
abilities also have in using terms, mathematics notations, and its structures
to model mathematics situation or problem, although the subjects who have
medium and low mathematics abilities can only write most of terms, notations,
and mathematics structure correctly, (5) mathematics logic thinking ability in
generative learning such as the subjects who have high, medium, and low
mathematics ability have ability in thinking orderly, namely the subject with
high, medium and low mathematics abilities write the acknoledged information
and are questioned in question items completely and correctly, and write
correct formulation to solve the problems. Then, the subjects who have high,
medium, and low mathematics abilities have argument ability, namely student can
write reason/proof in deciding solving stages which can be used to answer
questions, although the subjects with medium and low mathematics abilities
write the reason which still is not correct but the subjects can solve the
questions correctly. Then, the subject with high, medium, and low mathematics
abilities have ability to write formulation of conclusion by using their own
languages based on the purpose of the question and answer correctly.
