Abstract

The low mathematical problem-solving abilities of eighth-grade students at SMPN 6 Pariaman served as the background for this study. One method that can be used to improve students' problem-solving skills is the Buzz Group learning method. The research problem in this study is whether there is a significant effect of the Buzz Group method on the mathematical problem-solving abilities of eighth-grade students at SMPN 6 Pariaman in the 2022/2023 academic year. The purpose of this study is to determine the significant effect of the Buzz Group method on the mathematical problem-solving abilities of eighth-grade students at SMPN 6 Pariaman in the 2022/2023 academic year. The hypothesis of this study is "there is a significant effect of the Buzz Group method on the mathematical problem-solving abilities of eighth-grade students at SMPN 6 Pariaman in the 2022/2023 academic year." This study is a pre-experimental research with the research design of The Static Group Comparison Design: Randomized Control-Group Only Design. The population of this study includes all eighth-grade students at SMPN 6 Pariaman in the 2022/2023 academic year. To obtain the sample, random sampling was used, followed by normality test, homogeneity test, and average equivalence test. The class chosen as the experimental class was VIII.4, while the control class was VIII.2. The instrument used was a problem-solving ability test, which was given to both sample classes. The data analysis technique used in this study was the t-test. Based on the test results, the average score of the problem-solving ability test for the experimental class students was 73.95, while the average score for the control class was 53.89. After conducting the hypothesis test using the t-test with α = 0.05 and a 95% confidence interval, the obtained t_calculated (3.38) > t_table (1.67), so the decision is to reject H0 and accept H1, which means there is a significant effect of the Buzz Group method on the mathematical problem-solving abilities of eighth-grade students at SMPN 6 Pariaman in the 2022/2023 academic year.
