Abstract


The objective of this research is to investigate the differences of students’ self esteem on mathematics, as the result of the application of learning with open ended approach and regular learning. The population in this research was the entire students in secondary schools in Pontianak. The sample is students on grade VIII from three secondary schools which were classified as high, medium, and low school levels. One school is randomly selected from each school level (SMPN 3 is selected for high-level school, SMPN 11 is selected for medium-level school, and SMP Haruniyah is selected for low-level school). Two classes are randomly selected from each school, one class as an experiment class (open-ended approach) and another class as a control class (regular learning). The results of data analysis show that if it is viewed as a whole, students’ self esteem on mathematics who had treated with instruction using open-ended approach was better than students who had treated with regular instruction.

Keywords :  Open Ended Approach, Students’ Self Esteem on Mathematics.
