Diperlukan pembelajaran yang mengkondisikan siswa agar aktif belajar. Dengan penggunaan metode penemuan terbimbing setting kooperatif, siswa diharapkan menemukan sendiri pola atau struktur matematika melalui proses pengalaman belajar. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui apakah metode penemuan terbimbing setting kooperatif efektif diterapkan pada pembelajaran matematika. Penelitian eksperimen ini dilakukan dengan sampel sebanyak 50 Siswa kelas VIII SMP Negeri 21 Makassar. Pengumpulan data menggunakan tes hasil belajar, lembar observasi, dan angket respon siswa. Analisis yang digunakan yaitu analisis deskriptif dan inferensial. Hasil analisis data yaitu metode penemuan terbimbing setting kooperatif lebih efektif dibandingkan metode konvensional, dapat dilihat dari hasil yang diperoleh kelas eksperimen lebih baik dibandingkan kelas kontrol pada tes hasil belajar, angket dan respon siswa. Metode penemuan terbimbing dengan menggunakan setting kooperatif sangat cocok digunakan pada penelitian pembelajaran matematika karena dapat melihat sejauh mana siswa aktif belajar, minat, motivasi dan hasil belajar siswa. Various problems faced by students in the learning process so that the student’s learning outcomes are low. Interest and motivation of the students in the learning are also lacking. Learning is required who students condition to be active in the study. With the use of the guided discovery method of settings cooperative, students are expected to discover their mathematical patterns or structures through the learning experience process. This study aims to find out that the method of discovery guided cooperative settings are effectively applied to student math learning. This experimental research was conducted with sample as many as 50 students of SMP Negeri 21 Makassar. Data collection using test results of learning, observation sheets, and student questionnaire responses. The analysis used is descriptive and inferential. The results of the data analysis show that the guided discovery method of a cooperative setting is more effective than conventional methods, can be seen from the results obtained by the experimental class better than the control class on the test. The guided discovery method by using cooperative settings is very suitable in use of mathematics learning research, because we can see the extent to which students are actively learning, the extent of interest, motivation and learning outcomes of students.]]>
