PENERAPAN MODEL PEMBELAJARAN CONNECTED MATHEMATICS PROJECT (CMP) UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KEMAMPUAN REPRESENTASI MATEMATIS SISWA

Abstract

This research was motivated by students' low mathematical representation abilities. This research aims to obtain information and an overview regarding improving students' mathematical representation abilities after implementing the Connected Mathematics Project (CMP) learning model. The method used in this research is a quasi-experimental method (Quasi Experiment) with the first class being given learning using the Connected Mathematics Project (CMP) learning model and the second class as the control class being given a conventional learning model. The population in this study were all students of class XI MIPA SMA Negeri 1 Pagaden with a sample of class XI MIPA 1 as the experimental class and XI MIPA 2 as the control class. The material provided is about Linear Programs. The instrument used in the research is a test instrument in the form of essay questions with a pretest-posttest technique. Based on the results, it shows that the increase in students' mathematical representation abilities using the Connected Mathematics Project (CMP) learning model is better than conventional learning with an average of (0.54 > 0.31). Thus, the Connected Mathematics Project (CMP) learning model can be used as an alternative in mathematics learning to improve students' mathematical representation abilities.
