Abstract

Abstract: This research aimed to identify the effect of POGIL model on the students' mathematical problem-solving ability. The variables involved in this research were mathematical problem-solving abilities as an independent variable, and the POGIL model as a dependent variable. Based on the observations of researchers through interviews with mathematics subject teachers and students at Junior High School 2 Kalibagor, showed that the mathematical learning process that took place was still dominated by learning that did not involve the active role of students. The learning used is still teacher-centered and limited to information transfer, especially in the form of theoretical and mathematical equations. The population of this study was the students at seventh grade in Junior High School 2 Kalibagor, even semester in the school year 2017/2018 consist of 8 classes and amounted to 219 students. Sampling was done randomly, selected as an experimental class is 66.91 with 30 students and 55.91 as control class with 30 students. This test was validated by two mathematicians, then it was tested to a group of seventh-grade students to fulfill the validity and reliability criteria. The data were analyzed by using t-test after conducting a series of normality and homogeneity tests. It was concluded that t-test for equality of means was used for hypothesis testing that shows a significant value = 0.000 less than alpha 0.05. So that H0 is rejected, it means that students' mathematical problem-solving ability taught by using POGIL model is better than students' mathematical problem-solving ability taught by conventional learning. In other words, POGIL model influences or effects on students' mathematical problem-solving abilities.
