Comparison of Cooperative Learning Model Think Pair Share and Think Pair Square Toward Students’ Mathematical Communication Ability
Abstract
This study discusses the improvement of students' mathematical communication ability using cooperative models of Think Pair Share and Think Pair Square types. This study is a quasi-experiment with One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The population in this study were all students of class XI of SMA Negeri 6 Palopo in the 2018/2019 school year and the sample was class XIA and XIB selected using random sampling. With purposive sampling technique with consideration of the class chosen with heterogeneous (varied) student abilities. Data obtained in this study came from test instruments. Data analysis techniques used descriptive statistical analysis and inferential statistical analysis. Based on the results of the normalized Gain calculation, the application of Think Pair Share cooperative learning models as well as the application of Think Pair Square cooperative learning models are equally dependent on the medium category. Hypothesis test results concluded that there was no significant difference between students' mathematical communication skills taught through the application of Think Pair Share cooperative learning models with Think Pair Square types.
