Abstract

This research was motivated by the low problem-solving abilities, mathematical disposition, and learning motivation of junior students. This study aims to find and analyze the influence of mathematical dispositions empirically and learning motivation on problem-solving abilities. Samples were obtained in class VII-2 at SMPN 2 Cimahi as many as 34 students.  The study uses quantitative correlational methods. The analysis was done by a regression method. The data collection was given two pieces of study instruments, namely problem-solving test instruments and non-test questionnaires in a set of mathematical dispositions and learning motivation. The data were tested for regression and correlation. The results of data analysis that was a mathematical disposition and learning motivation were significantly influenced by the problem-solving ability of junior students, with the regression equation Y = 1.95 + 0.121X1 + 0.015X2 indicating a positive influence, and the degree of closeness is the Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.827 classified in a robust positive interpretation. Together, mathematical disposition variables and learning motivation variables can determine the problem-solving variable by 68.3%. Recommendations from this study, teachers should design learning processes that can improve mathematical disposition and student motivation so that students' problem-solving abilities increase.

Abstract

Mathematical creative thinking ability is essential to be mastered by students to create good learning results and achievement. To install creative thinking in students' minds, they are highly requested to apply an innovative learning model. Among innovative learning models, project-activity-cooperative learning-exercise (PACE) is the one to be considered suitable for improving the students' mathematical creative thinking. This study is an experimental research using a pretest-posttest control group design. It was conducted in three classes of IKIP Siliwangi students by applying different learning models. The first class was given the PACE model treatment with Geogebra, the second class was given the PACE model treatment, and the third class was given direct learning. The instrument used tests. Based on the data analysis, we can conclude that there are differences in improving creative thinking abilities among the students who get the PACE model learning with Geogebra (PACE-G), the PACE model, and direct learning (DL). The improvement of creative students who get PACE and PACE-G models is better than those who get DL. The progress of students' mathematical creative thinking abilities obtained from PACE and PACE-G models is a high category. In contrast, improving students' creative thinking abilities who acquire DL is categorized as a medium.
