Learning behaviours of low-achieving children’s mathematics learning in using of helping tools in a synchronous peer-tutoring system

This study was aimed to: (1) find out the use of active learning strategies with Peer Tutor techniques in VIII class SMPN 20 Medan on mathematics subjects, (2) find out the learning outcomes of students taught using active learning strategies with peer tutors in VII I class SMP 20 Medan on mathematics subjects, and (3) find out the effect of active learning strategies with peer tutoring techniques on mathematics learning outcomes of students in class VIII SMP 20 Medan. This research is quantiative research. The population is all students of VIII class SMPN 20 Medan. Sample of this study is class VIII 3 as the experimental class and class VIII 2 as the control class with 30 students in each class. The instrument is used to determine student learning outcomes is a multiple choice test in the form of a pre test and post test that has been valid. The reliability of the test is 0.828. In this study, the normality test on the pre test data on the experimental class obtained L (0,122) < L table (0,161) and control class pre test data obtained L (0.091) < L table (0,161). Whereas the normality test on the post test data on the experimental class obtained L (0,091) < L table (0,161) and the control class post test data obtained L (0,122) < L table (0,161), which means that the pre-test and post-test data in the study sample had a normal distribution. In the homogeneity test the pre test data obtained F (1,821) < F table (1,859) and post test data obtained F (1,643) < F table (1,859 ), which means the pre test data and post test on the sample used in the study is homogeneous population. From the results of the calculation of the analysis of variance sig. = 0,05, obtained t (2,030) > t table (1,672), so that Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. The conclusion of this study explains that the mathematics learning outcomes of students who are taught with active learning learning strategies with peer tutoring techniques are better than the mathematics learning outcomes of students who are taught with conventional learning in VIII class SMP 20 Medan 2017-2018 Academic Year.

Flat Side

This research is motivated by the low student mathematics learning outcomes. The reason is the lack of full delivery of lessons and students have not fully understood the material. One alternative to overcome this problem is to implement a complete learning model with peer tutoring methods. The purpose of this study: 1) to describe the improvement of students 'mathematics learning outcomes through the application of a complete learning model with material peer tutoring methods to construct flat-side space for junior high school students, 2) to describe students' responses to the application of the complete learning model with peer tutoring methods. classroom action research with quantitative and qualitative descriptive analysis. Research location in Tuban 7th Middle School. The subjects studied were students of class VIII E. The instruments used were learning outcome evaluation test sheets and student response questionnaires. The results of the study concluded that students' mathematics learning outcomes in the application of the complete learning model with peer tutoring methods had increased. This can be seen from the average student learning outcomes of the first cycle of 88, the second cycle of 89 and the third cycle of 97. So there is an increase in the average mathematics learning outcomes in the first cycle to the second cycle of 1 and from cycle II to cycle III amounting to 8. And the percentage of classical completeness in cycles I, II and III reach 100%. While the student response to the application of the complete learning model with peer tutors is included in the criteria very effective, with a percentage of positive responses of 96% and the percentage of negative responses of 4%.
