PENGARUH PENERAPAN METODE INKUIRI TERHADAP HASIL BELAJAR MATEMATIKA

Abstract

The learning results of five grade students' in mathematics learning, at SD Negeri 1 of Rajabasa Raya Bandar Lampung in 2015/2016 was in the low category. This research was a quasi-experimental research. The purpose of the research was to find out the influence of inquiry method in learning process. The population of this research were two classes which are VB and VC class, each class consists of 40 students. Data collecting in this research was by conducting observation and test. The result of this research showed that the use of inquiry method could increase the students learning process especially in mathematics. Based on the result of this research the mean score of the learning result in experiment class was 80.66 is better than the control class which was 60.00. The analysis result of student T-Test revealed that t count = 8793> t table = 2.026, thus there is a significant difference between experiment class and control class.
