ANALISIS KEMAMPUAN PEMAHAMAN KONSEP MATEMATIS PADA MATERI SISTEM PERSAMAAN LINEAR DUA VARIABEL

Abstract

Masih banyak ditemukan peserta didik yang mengalami kesulitan dalam memahami konsep matematis pada materi sistem persamaan linear dua variabel (SPLDV). Oleh sebab itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggambarkan kemampuan pemahaman konsep matematis peserta didik pada jenjang SMP kelas VIII. subjek penelitian dipilih peserta didik kelas VIII pada satu SMP di kabupaten Subang sebanyak 30 Peserta didik. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan deskriptif kualitatif. Teknik pengambilan data yaitu berbentuk soal uraian sebanyak tiga soal kemudian di analisis dan di deskripsikan sesuai dengan kemampuannya utnuk pengkategorian peserta didik (kategori sedang, rendah, dan tinggi). Data hasil penelitian selanjutnya dianalisis menggunakan uji rata-rata dan standar deviasi. Hasil penelitian diperoleh 4 peserta didik berada di kategori tinggi dengan persentase 13,34%, 19 peserta didik pada kategori sedang dengan persentase 63,33%, dan 7 peserta didik pada kategori rendah dengan persentase 23,33%. Sehingga, diperoleh kesimpulan mayoritas peserta didik memiliki kemampuan pemahaman konsep matematis yang sedang sehingga belum memenuhi indikator kemampuan pemahaman konsep matematis. There are still many students who have difficulty understanding mathematical concepts in linear equation in two variables (LETV). Therefore, this study aims to describe the ability to understand mathematical concepts of students at the junior high school level of class VIII. The research subjects were selected by class VIII students at one junior high school in Subang district as many as 30 students. This research method uses descriptive qualitative. The data collection technique was in the form of a description of five questions, then analyzed and described according to their ability to categorize students (medium, low and high categories). The research data were then analyzed using the mean and standard deviation test. The results showed that 4 students were in the high category with a percentage of 13.34%, 19 students were in the medium category with a percentage of 63.33%, and 7 students were in the low category with a percentage of 23.33%. So, the conclusion is the majority of students have moderate ability to understand mathematical concepts so they do not meet the indicators of ability to understand mathematical concepts.
