Abstract

This study aims to improve the mathematics learning outcomes of grade IX students of MTsN 1 Probolinggo on the material of cubes and cuboids through the application of the Snowball Throwing learning strategy. This study is a Classroom Action Research (CAR) which is carried out in two cycles, including the planning stage, action implementation, observation, and reflection. The research subjects were 29 students with a Minimum Completion Criteria (KKM) of 75. Data collection techniques used learning outcome tests, observation, and documentation. The results of the study showed a significant increase in student learning outcomes. The average student score at the initial stage was 68.93 with a completeness of 58.62%. After the application of the Snowball Throwing strategy in cycle I, the average score increased to 89.48 with a completeness of 86.21%. In cycle II, the average score reached 95.52 with a classical completeness of 100%. These results indicate that the Snowball Throwing learning strategy is effective in improving students' mathematics learning outcomes on the material of cubes and cuboids.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the low ability of students' mathematical understanding of algebraic form calculation operations. Students tend to have difficulty understanding concepts, identifying elements of algebraic forms, and applying these concepts in problem solving. This study aims to describe the mathematical comprehension ability of grade VII MTsN 1 Probolinggo students in algebraic form calculation operation material. This study uses a qualitative approach with a descriptive type of research. The subjects of this study were 21 students in grade VII MTsN 1 Probolinggo, of which 6 students were selected as in-depth interview subjects based on the categories of cognitive ability (high, medium, and low). Data collection was carried out through a description test consisting of seven questions based on seven indicators of mathematical comprehension ability and strengthened by semi-structured interviews. The results of the study show that the mathematical comprehension ability of grade VII MTsN 1 Probolinggo students in the operation material calculating algebraic forms is quite good, but it is not evenly distributed in all indicators. High-category students were able to master almost all indicators well, although they were slightly constrained in explaining conceptual meaning in a contextual manner. Middle-category students have mastered basic concepts and identification of like-minded syllables, but encounter obstacles when constructing complex mathematical models and simplifying algebraic fractions. Meanwhile, the complex. Meanwhile, students in the lower group still experience fundamental obstacles in mastering concepts, differentiating same-sex tribes, and working on procedures.
