PENGGUNAAN PENDEKATAN KOOPERATIF TIPE STAD DALAM MENINGKATKAN KEMAMPUAN PENGHITUNGAN PECAHAN DI SDN 01 WANAREJAN PEMALANG

Abstract

ABSTRACT Efforts to improve and improve the quality of education in Indonesia have long been carried out, including the quality of mathematics education in elementary schools. However, these efforts have not shown satisfactory results. The low achievement of student achievement is due to learning that involves students actively not being implemented. Conventional learning that has been carried out until now, teachers dominate learning so much that student involvement in the learning process is still lacking. In conventional learning, students are no longer the subject of learning but the object of learning. The initial reflection on the level of students' understanding of the concept of calculating fractions of class V in SDN 01 Wanarejan Pemalang was still low when compared to other mathematical concepts, this is evidenced by the low average value of the results of the daily calculation of fraction counting concepts, where students who get grades under the Minimum completeness Criteria there are still 73.9%, and the class average is only 57.65 still far below the national completeness limit. This study applies learning activities using the STAD type Cooperative Approach. In cycle I and cycle II, the improvement in learning the concept of fraction calculation has succeeded in increasing students' affective value in the components of discussion activity, question activeness, and question answering activity. The results of the assessment of cognitive aspects also occurred a significant increase from the initial average value of 57.65 to 67.09 in the first cycle and 70.22 in the second cycle. And when viewed from the percentage of completeness also an increase from 26.1% to 69.6% in the first cycle and 87.0% in the second cycle. Keywords: cooperative approach, STAD, fraction calculation.
