IMPROVING MATH LEARNING OUTCOMES BY IMPLEMENTING NUMERACY LITERACY DRILL EXERCISES

Abstract

This research aims to determine the ability to solve problems in mathematics lessons that apply the numeracy literacy Drill method in class VI students of SD Muhammadiyah Kulur, Temon, Kulon Progo, Yogyakarta.

The development model used in this research is Classroom Action Research which is based on the Kemmis and Mc action research (PTK) concept. This research has several stages, including initial reflection, planning, implementation of actions, observation and reflection. The instruments in the research include story questions related to literacy abilities, reasoning abilities and mathematical calculation abilities. Numeracy literacy mathematics questions can make it easier for students to understand the questions in the independent curriculum. Data analysis with quantitative description.

The results of the research showed that there was an increase in the average student knowledge score from before the numeracy literacy drill method was applied to after the numeracy literacy drill method was applied in Cycle I and Cycle II. The average student knowledge score before the drill method was applied was 54.17. After the drill method was applied in cycle I the average student knowledge score was 80. In the application of the drill method in cycle II the average student knowledge score was 88.75. Thus, the application of the numeracy literacy drill method can improve the learning outcomes of class VI students at SD Muhamaddiyah Kulur Kebondalem Temon Kulonprogo.
