3. 1.1 Background
Mathematics is one subject is taught that in every type of educational levels,
ranging from elementary to secondary education both public schools and
vocational school.
Most people tends to be considered as a mathematics a difficult subject.
Some even regard mathematics as a frightening specter.
Many students found problematic and difficult to solve math problem so that
students get low grades on math. The low student mathematics learning
outcomes caused by various factors including the method used by teachers in
the learning of mathematics.
Various problems occur in the learning of mathematics in schools. The most
common problem is a less satisfactory learning outcomes. These problems
occur because of several obstacles in learning mathematics. One of the
barriers that often occur in the learning of mathematics is the bottleneck in
solving problems (problem solving).

6. 1.5 Term Limits
1. Problem solving is the thought process to determine what to do
when it does not know what we should do.
2. The result is something That Is Achieved while the math is the
mastery of learning outcomes or skills that Achieved by students on
subjects of mathematics is shown by tests.
3. Observed student activity is the activity of students during the
learning process based on the application of mathematical problem
Solving

8. 2.1 Learning Mathematics
Learning is conducted every human activity in everyday life today.
the object of learning mathematics consists of the direct object and
indirect object :
1. Direct object is to learn math facts, skills, concepts and
principles.
2. Indirect object is the transfer of learning mathematics learning,
the ability to investigate, problem-solving skills, personal
discipline and an appreciation of mathematical structure.

9. 2.2 Study of Mathematics
Learning problems in school mathematics is a complex issue, for it is as a
teacher we should be able to select appropriate learning strategies to the
learning materials. Implementation of a mathematics learning strategies and
approaches required multiple approaches may be needed in a number of
methods of learning.
Learning method is a way that can be used to achieve learning goals and to
implement a method of learning is required of a technique or a systematic
way of carrying out learning activities such as explaining technical,
engineering and technical demonstrations asking the learning activities, the
teacher said to succeed if able to engage most of their students actively,
both physically and mentally so as to change the behavior of the majority of
students toward mastery of basic competencies better.
Factor of poor quality learning outcomes are caused by two factors:
1. Internal factors are factors that come from the students themselves are
such as preparedness, ability, Possessed prerequisite knowledge
students, motivation, intelligence and so forth
2. external factors are derived from external factors such as student
facilities, weather etc.

10. 2.3 Problem Solving Approach
Approach can be interpreted as a point of departure or point of view of
learning process.
Approach to learning is a path or way in which teachers or students in the
achievement of learning objectives from the standpoint of how the learning
process or learning materials, the general or specific.
Characteristics of problem-solving approach (Taplin, 2011):
1. The interaction between student and teacher interaction with students.
2. Mathematical dialogue and consensus among the students.
3. Teachers provide sufficient information about the problem, and students
to clarify, interpret, and try to construct the solution.
4. Teachers receive an answer true / false is not to evaluate.
5. Teacher mentoring, training, ask questions and share insights in the
troubleshooting process.
6. Teachers know when it is appropriate to intervene, and when to step
back and let the students make their own way.

11. 2.4 Learning Mathematics with Problem Solving Approach
Problem solving in the teaching of mathematics is a process in which a
person or group to accept the challenge related to the mathematical
problem and the way in the which the solution is not Immediately be
determined easily and the solution requires a mathematical idea.
One of the goals of teaching through problem solving is to Encourage
students to improv and build a process within the time period in the which
students perform their own process to find some ideas to become a better
awareness of the possibilities

12. Aspects in Problem Solving Approach
Understanding
Review Using Strategy
Solve the Problems
In some aspects of problem solving is related to one another. For example,
the process of understanding the problems associated with the process of
reviewing, using strategies, problem-solving process. In a mathematical
problem, of course, will be examined and understood the main core of the
problem. Then Able to develop mathematical models, and are Able to choose
a solution strategy, and finally connecting with the initial problem as well as a
check on results obtained or settlement.

14. 2.5 Type of Questions
Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at Saint Louis University (the
Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, 1993) proposed five types of math
problems:
1. Questions that test the memory (memory).
2. Questions that test your skills (skills).
3. Questions that require application of skills on a regular
situation (familiar).
4. Questions that require application of skills in an
unusual situation (unfamiliar) - develop a new strategy
for the problem.
5. Questions that require an extension (extension) or the
skills that we know the theory before it is applied in
unusual circumstances (unfamiliar).

16. 2.6 Learning Outcomes
the results of learning are skills possessed by the student after he received
the learning experience" (Nana, 2005: 22).
A man can be said to succeed in learning if it has been a change in her
behavior, either in the form of knowledge and skills as well as in the form of
attitude is positive.
To find out the success of students in the learning process of evaluation
conducted. Learning outcomes are measured through a test or assessment of
learning outcomes and the value can be known in the form of letters or
numbers. From the results of this study to know whether students can be said
to complete the study or not.

17. 2.7 Relevant Research
The results of research by Apriza Yuli (2009) revealed that through the
learning of mathematics with the Problem Based Instruction increased student
learning outcomes, from the cycle I with an average of 58.57 with 60%
completeness of student learning, and in the second cycle the average student to
69.57 to 88.57% learning completeness. Thus, it can be concluded that the
average student learning has increased and the thoroughness of action is
achieved according to the indicators of success.

18. 2.8 Frame of Mind
Presented By : Rizka Rusdi (A1C009039)
20. 3.1 Type of Research
Type of research conducted is Classroom Action Research (CAR).
Arikunto (2006:3) states that "a class action research and learning activities
carefully to be an act, deliberately raised and occur in a class together". While
Wibawa (2004: 6) says that a classroom action research (CAR) is a study
conducted in a systematic reflective of the various actions taken by teachers as
well as researchers, since the drafting of a plan to the assessment of real action
in the classroom in the form teaching and learning activities, to improve learning
conditions performed.
