GURU PROFESIONAL ADALAH KUNCI MEWUJUDKAN PENDIDIKAN BERKUALITAS

The keyword to achieve quality education is depend on  profesional teacher  in their fields, therefore there should be a concrete step in an effort to lift the image of the teacher  profession as an honorable profession, so that teachers can work as much as possible in building a quality education. Professional responsibility of teachers is not fragmentary, but with entirely, completely, as much as possible from upstream to downstream. All thing are not only teacher responsibility of the students or schools, but will be fully responsible to Allah SWT

PENGEMBANGAN PERANGKAT AJAR BERBASIS CTL PADA MATERI SISTEM KOORDINAT UNTUK MENINGKATKAN KEMAMPUAN PEMECAHAN MASALAH KELAS VIII

The purpose of the research is to produce Student Worksheet based on Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) on the coordinate system material that meets the valid, practical, and effective criteria. This type of research is the research and development of Research and Development (R&D) with the ADDIE model proposed by Dick and Carry (1998), which consists of five stages of development namely Analysis, Design, Develop, Implementation, and Evaluation. The subjects in this study were 3 educators and 12 students of class VIII of SMPN 8 Payakumbuh. Data analysis technique was done by analyzing the validity and practicality assessment sheets of the use of CTL-based LKPD. The results showed that the use of CTL-based LKPD developed obtained an average score of 84.66% which included very valid criteria. Furthermore, based on the practicality test showed that the revised CTL-based LKPD received an average score of 86.88% which was included in the very practical criteria. Finally, based on the effectiveness test showed that the CTL-based LKPD that was developed to improve students' problem solving abilities based on the acquisition of the average value of the problem solving ability test which was 86, 25% above the KKM. It was concluded that CTL-based LKPD in mathematics learning on the coordinate system material developed had fulfilled valid, practical, and effective criteria

The Application of The Polya's Steps Reviewed from Problem-Solving Ability in Two-Variable Linear Equation System (SPLDV)

The ability of students in this school is low in understanding the questions given by the teacher. As a result they find it difficult to know the steps on how to solve the problem. Efforts that can be done are implementing Polya's steps.Quasi-experimental research was conducted in this study with the Randomized Control Group Only Design. Students of class VIII at this school are used as population. The experimental class is class VIIIA and the control class is class VIIIB. Final test data in the form of essays obtained were analyzed by t test. The result is the average problem solving ability with the application of Polya's steps, 78.23 and the control class, 72.38, with achievement in the experimental class 81% and in the control class, 48%. After being analyzed, t_count = 2.33 and t_table = 1.68 with a confidence level of 95% so that t_count > t_table (2.33 > 1.68), meaning that the proposed hypothesis is accepted and the ability of students in solving problems using Polya steps is higher rather than without applying these steps
