Abstract

This study was aimed to evaluate the effects of mathematics learning media and cognitive styles on mathematics learning outcomes by controlling initial abilities of students. The study was conducted at Public Junior High School 1 and 6 Tondano, Minahasa Regency. The method used was the experimental method with a 2 x 2 factorial design. The sample was grade VII students of Public Junior High School 1 and 6 Tondano where 60 students as samples were obtained based on cluster random sampling. The data were analyzed by analysis of covariance (ANKOVA). The results of the study after controlling the initial abilities of students are as follows: 1) Mathematics learning outcomes of groups of students who employ computer  media are higher  than  those who  use teaching  aids, 2) Mathematics learning outcomes of groups of students who have independent cognitive field styles are higher than those who have field dependent cognitive style, 3) there is an interaction effect between learning media and cognitive style on  learning  outcomes,  4)  in  groups  of  students  who  have  independent field cognitive styles, the results of mathematics learning groups of students who use computer media are higher than those who use teaching aids media, and 5) in groups of students who use computer media, Mathematics learning outcomes of groups of students who have independent field cognitive styles are higher than those who have field dependent cognitive styles. Therefore, it is expected that mathematics teachers should pay more attention to students cognitive styles and use computer media in learning process.
