Abstract

Penelitian ini adalah penelitian deskriptif kualitatif. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan profil representasi materi PLSV (Persamaan Linear Satu Variabel) siswa SMP bedasarkan gaya belajar Kolb yang terdiri dari assimilator, akomodator, konverger, dan diverger. Peneliti melakukan wawancara kepada empat siswa SMP N 22 Surabaya yang memenuhi karakteristik keempat tipe gaya belajar Kolb. Terdapat tiga tahapan analisis data, yaitu reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil dari penelitian ini adalah Subjek Assimilator (SA) mengaitkan hubungan antara berbagai representasi yang disajikan dengan melihat kesamaan dari representasi yang diberikan dan membuat representasi simbolis. Subjek akomodator (SM) mengaitkan bentuk representasi simbolis (S) dan kata-kata (K) bedasarkan kesamaan bilangan. Subjek Konverger (SK) mengaitkan berbagai bentuk representasi kata-kata (K), diagram (D) dan simbol (S) dari segi kepraktisan. Subjek Diverger (SD) mengaitkan berbagai bentuk representasi dari segi kesamaan angka dan huruf yang diketahui dan hasil penyelesaian yang diperoleh. Kata kunci: representasi, PLSV, gaya belajar Kolb. ABSTRACT This is a descriptive qualitative research. The aim of this study is to describe the representation profile of Linear Equation of One Variable (LEOV) of Junior High School Students based on Kolb’ Learning styles: assimilator, akomodator, konverger, and diverger. The researcher conduct an interview with four SMP N 22 Surabaya students whom qualify the characteristics of Kolb’s learning styles. There are three analysis data phases: data reduction, data representation, and conclusion. Based on the result, Assimilator Subject (SA) make connection between LEOV’s representation by looking for its similarity and prefer symbol representation. Akomodator Subject (SM) make connection between symbol representation (S) and word representation (K) based on the number similarity. Converger Subject (SK) make connection between representations: word (K), diagram (D) and symbol (S) representation based on its practical uses. Diverger Subject (SD) make connection between representation based on given word and number similarities and the solution which is derived. Keywords: representation, LEOV, Kolb’s learning styles.
