<p>Based on observations of a grade 10 social studies-track 2 class, students appeared less active in learning. Many students in the class looked sleepy, were too embarrassed to ask questions, did not want to join in discussions with their friends, and were too lazy to do the tasks. This research aims to understand whether the Team Game Tournament (TGT) method can increase the activeness of students. The method of Classroom Action Research is the model Kemmis and McTaggart administered in two cycles. The research was done at a school in Makassar with 25 students from the grade 10 social studies-track 2 as research subjects. The data were collected using mentor observation sheets, students' questionnaires and reflection journals. The results of the analysis show that the students’ activeness in participation, students’ activeness in sharing opinions, and students’ activeness in listening and discussing have reached the standard of success and received a "good" minimum predicate with 68%, 72% and 92% respectively. Over all, the result of this research can be concluded that TGT method can improve student learning activity.</p><p><strong>BAHASA INDONESIA ABSTRACT: </strong>Hasil observasi dalam kelas menunjukkan bahwa siswa kelas X IPS 2 kurang aktif di dalam pembelajaran.

In the world of education, it is important that the teacher considers that the knowledge that students had learned in school can be applied in the different situation either when students still in school or when they are faced with real inability to apply the knowledge is called lack of conceptual understanding. The researcher then decided to use Problem Based Learning (PBL) to overcome this problem. The aim of this research is to found out whether the implementation of PBL can increase student's conceptual understanding and the effective ways to implement PBL in order to increase student's conceptual understanding. This research is a Classroom Action Research, and this was a two cycle research where the research used student's written test, student's questionnaire, student's interview, teacher's interview, teacher's observation form, and journal reflection as instruments to measure student's conceptual understanding and the implementation of PBL based on the Christian perspective. Based on the analysis and discussion, it can be concluded that the implementation of problem-based learning could increase students' conceptual understanding based on the Christian perspective.

<p>This research aims to investigate the comparison of the improvement average in student’s mathematics cognitive learning outcomes between an 11^th grade science class taught by drill strategy and by recitation method. This research used quasi-experimental with pre-test post-test comparison group design. The sample was taken by a convenient random sampling. The instruments were tried before being given to the research sample to measure the validity, reliability, difficulty index and discriminating power. The analysis uses the U Mann-Whitney test. The results of the research show that there are no different improvement average in mathematics cognitive outcomes between an 11^th grade science class that taught by drill and by recitation method (p= 0,152 &gt; 0,05).</p><p><strong>BAHASA INDONESIA ABSTRAK: </strong>Tujuan penelitian ini untuk menyelidiki perbandingan peningkatan hasil belajar kognitif Matematika antara siswa kelas XI IPA yang mengalami pembelajaran dengan metode <em>drill</em> dan yang dengan resitasi.

<p>School math learning is part of the educational process that provides students with a mathematics learning experience through a planned set of activities to achieve established goals. The goal of learning mathematics in schools in Indonesia is oriented towards achieving a balance between the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains. In fact, learning mathematics in schools in Indonesia so far has focused on efforts to achieve high scores from the cognitive domain. But along with the development and change of curriculum, affective and psychomotor domains are receiving more priority to develop. In this paper, the author wants to examine the affective domain by conducting a study of character values in school mathematics learning through an analogy approach. This paper aims to contribute ideas related to the development of affective domains in learning mathematics through the study conducted. The research method used is a literature study. While the strategy for conducting the study is an analogical approach that is associated with the understanding of quantitative and qualitative relationships. Based on the results, it is evident that in school mathematics learning implied character values are learned. The author hopes that this study will be useful to math teachers in developing the affective domain of math learning in schools. The implication is that the goal of learning mathematics, namely the balance between the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains, can be achieved.</p><p><strong>BAHASA INDONESIA ABSTRACT: </strong>Pembelajaran matematika sekolah adalah bagian dari proses pendidikan yang memberikan pengalaman belajar matematika kepada siswa melalui serangkaian kegiatan yang terencana untuk mencapai tujuan yang telah ditetapkan. Tujuan pembelajaran matematika sekolah di Indonesia berorientasi untuk mewujudkan keseimbangan antara domain kognitif, afektif, dan psikomotor. Pada kenyataannya pembelajaran matematika sekolah di Indonesia selama ini menitikberatkan pada upaya pencapaian nilai yang tinggi dari domain kognitif. Tetapi bersamaan dengan pengembangan dan pergantian kurikulum, domain afektif dan psikomotor mendapat prioritas untuk dikembangkan. Oleh karena itu, dalam paper ini penulis ingin mengembangkan domain afektif dengan melakukan kajian nilai-nilai karakter dalam pembelajaran matematika sekolah melalui pendekatan analogi. Penulisan paper ini bertujuan untuk memberikan kontribusi pemikiran terkait pengembangan domain afektif dalam pembelajaran matematika. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah studi literatur. Sedangkan strategi melakukan kajian adalah pendekatan analogi yang dikaitkan dengan pemahaman hubungan kuantitatif dan kualitatif<strong>. </strong>Berdasarkan hasilnya dapat diketahui bahwa didalam pembelajaran matematika sekolah terdapat nilai-nilai karakter yang tersirat untuk dipelajari<strong>. </strong>Harapan penulis, kajian ini bermanfaat untuk guru matematika dalam mengembangkan domain afektif pembelajaran matematika di sekolah. Implikasinya tujuan pembelajaran matematika yaitu keseimbangan antara domain kognitif, afektif dan psikomotor dapat tercapai.</p>

<p><em>Guidance and assistance in learning are necessary for every child, whether it is for the students who have attended school or not. Most of the parents who live in the Bonang area can not fulfill this activity. Parents who have not be able to accompany their children in learning after school are caused several factors, namely cognitive inability of parents, the busyness of parents in work, and the inability of parents economically to send their children to learning center, and some are even do not trust some learning center. Mathematics education students are prepared in the field of school mathematics teaching and learning expertise. For them, this activity is a valuable opportunity to gain teaching experience, as well as learning to implement the theories that have been learned, both in terms of pedagogy and mathematics. The purpose of this community is as a place to synchronize students’ need to implement their learning practices with the needs of schoolchildren</em> <em>around Bonang. The activity is in the form of assistance at one of the residents’ houses in Bonang. The benefits of this assistance activity are felt by all parties, schoolchildren</em> <em>as learning participants receive learning guidance in terms of cognitive and character, parents who are assisted and feel happy to see children's development in education, and the tutors can directly learn to implement knowledge and practice teaching.</em></p><p><strong>ABSTRACT (INDONESIAN):</strong> Bimbingan dan pendampingan belajar diperlukan oleh setiap anak, baik yang bersekolah maupun yang tidak bersekolah. Kegiatan tersebut belum dapat dipenuhi oleh sebagian besar orang tua yang berdomisili di daerah Bonang. Orang tua yang belum dapat mendampingi anak-anaknya dalam belajar sepulang sekolah disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor yaitu ketidakmampuan orang tua secara kognitif, kesibukan orang tua dalam bekerja dan ketidakmampuan orang tua secara ekonomi untuk mengikutsertakan anaknya di dalam bimbingan belajar yang bersifat komersial, bahkan ada yang kurang percaya pada bimbingan belajar tertentu. Mahasiswa pendidikan matematika dipersiapkan pada bidang keahlian belajar mengajar matematika sekolah. Bagi mahasiswa, kegiatan tersebut merupakan kesempatan yang berharga untuk mendapatkan pengalaman mengajar, sekaligus belajar untuk mengimplementasikan teori yang sudah dipelajari, baik dari segi pedagogy maupun keilmuan matematika. Tujuan dari kegiatan ini adalah sebagai wadah untuk mensinkronisasikan kebutuhan mahasiswa untuk mengimplementasikan praktik pembelajaran mereka dengan kebutuhan anak sekolah di sekitar Bonang. Adapun kegiatan bimbingan belajar tersebut diselenggarakan di rumah salah satu warga di Bonang. Manfaat kegiatan bimbingan belajar ini dirasakan oleh semua pihak, anak-anak sekolah sebagai peserta belajar mendapatkan bimbingan belajar dari segi koginitif dan karakter, orangtua yang terbantukan dan merasa bahagia melihat perkembangan anak dalam pendidikan dan mahasiswa pendidikan matematika yang menjadi tutor dapat secara langsung belajar mengimplementasikan ilmu dan praktek mengajarnya.</p>
