The Impact of ICT-Based Contextual Mathematics Learning on Students' Problem-Solving Ability

Mathematics is a topic in excessive school that is difficult to understand. The contextual teaching and learning (CTL) model assisted by Information and Communications Technology (ICT) can overcome this. The purpose of this research was to determine students' mathematical problem-solving abilities through ICT- assisted CTL learning. This is a quasi-experimental research with a total population of 1083 students of SMA N 2 Padang. A sample of 100 students who were selected through a simple random sampling technique, each of which was fifty students for the experimental group and the control group. The studies device changed into a take a look at of mathematical problemfixing abilities. Data have been analyzed the use of covariance analysis. The result of this research is that high school students who are taught with ICT-assisted contextual learning models are able to solve problems correctly. Meanwhile, students who learn through conventional models have difficulty solving mathematical problems. The conclusion of this research is the ability of students to solve mathematical problems who learn through ICT-assisted CTL learning is better than students who are taught through conventional learning.
