Abstract:
This study aims to improve mathematics learning outcomes through the
implementation of strategies FIRE-UP in the STAD cooperative learning model in
the class VII3 SMP 2 Tambang in the academic year 2012/2013 for the subject
matter up flat rectangle. This research is a form of collaborative action research.
The research was conducted in two cycles, and each cycle consists of 3 sessions
and 1 times daily tests. Research procedures were conducted in a class-action
planning, action, observation and reflection. The research was conducted in the
classroom VIIa by the number of students by 23 students consisting of 14 girls
and 9 boys. The results showed that an increase in student learning outcomes, it is
shown in the number of students who achieve a minimum completeness criteria is
68. Number of students who achieve the minimum completeness criteria on the
basis of scores equal to the number of students who achieve a minimum
completeness criteria on daily tests I was 6 people or 26.08%, and the number of
students who achieve mastery criteria on the minimum daily test II has increased
as many as 16 people or 69.56%. Meanwhile the average number of students on
the basis of scores reached 41.3 and for the daily test I increased to 53.73 and the
second daily test also increased 68.66. Based on these results, it can be concluded
that the implementation of the strategy through the implementation of the FIRE-UP in the STAD cooperative learning model to improve learning outcomes of
students of mathematics
