<p class="05IsiAbstrak">This article describes the students’ difficulty in memorizing English vocabulary in Integrated Islamic Elementary School (SDIT) Amal Insani Jepara.  This study uses a descriptive qualitative method. The result denotes that students have difficulties in memorizing vocabulary including there is no visible intrinsic motivation from students, considering English as just another compulsory subject. In addition to the factors of integration and talent, it seems that attitudinal and motivational factors take the main role of the difficulties of students of SDIT Amal Insani in remembering English vocabulary. Students with a high level of intelligence coupled with high enthusiasm, because there is a reward from the teacher, easy to remember vocabulary as well as remembering other subject matter. Students with a priori and low motivation attitude find it difficult to remember the vocabulary that has been given.</p>

It was probably not a unique experience, but it sure was fun, and more important, fifteen elementary school teachers improved their skills for teaching mathematics and did away with some anxiety about the subject. While they were about it, these teachers also increased the achievement in mathematics of forty-five elementary school students and showed them that mathematics can be a lot of fun.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan keefektifan pembelajaran dengan pendekatan Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) dan Problem Based Learning (PBL) ditinjau dari motivasi dan prestasi belajar matematika siswa, serta membandingkan keefektifan pembelajaran dengan pendekatan CTL dan PBL ditinjau dari motivasi dan prestasi belajar matematika siswa. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian eksperimen semu, yang menggunakan dua kelompok eksperimen. Untuk mengetahui keefektifan pembelajaran dengan pendekatan CTL dan PBL digunakan uji one sample t-test pada taraf signifikansi 5%. Untuk membandingkan keefektifan pembelajaran dengan pendekatan CTL dan PBL, data dianalisis secara multivariat menggunakan T2 Hotelling dengan taraf signifikansi 5% dan dianalisis lanjut menggunakan uji t univariat dengan kriteria Bonferoni. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pembelajaran dengan pendekatan CTL dan PBL efektif ditinjau dari motivasi dan prestasi belajar matematika siswa, dan pembelajaran dengan pendekatan PBL lebih efektif dibanding dengan pembelajaran dengan pendekatan CTL ditinjau dari prestasi belajar matematika siswa, tetapi pembelajaran dengan pendekatan PBL tidak lebih efektif dibanding dengan pembelajaran dengan pendekatan CTL ditinjau dari motivasi belajar matematika siswa.Kata kunci: CTL, PBL, motivasi, prestasi belajar. The Effectiveness of the CTL and PBL Approaches Viewed from Students’ Motivation and Achievement in Mathematics Learning AbstractThis study aimed to describe the effectiveness of the Contextual Teaching Learning (CTL) and Problem Based Learning (PBL) approaches viewed from students’ motivation and achievement in mathematics learning, and to compare the effectiveness of the CTL and the PBL approach in mathematics learning viewed from students’ motivation and achievement. This study was a quasi-experimental research and used two experimental groups. To find out the effectiveness of the CTL and PBL approach in each variable, the data were analyzed using one-sample t-test what the significance level of 5%. To compare the effectiveness of the CTL and PBL approaches, the data were analyzed using the multivariate T2 Hotelling with the significance level of 5% and followed up by the univariate analysis using the Bonferoni criterion. The results of the study show that the CTL and PBL approaches were effective viewed from students’ motivation and achievement in mathematics learning and the PBL approach was more effective than CTL approach viewed from students’ achievement in mathematics but the PBL approach is not more effective than CTL approach viewed from students’ motivation in mathematics learning.Keywords: CTL, PBL, motivation, learning achievement.
