Abstract
This research was carried out because of the low motivation of grade 8 students in SMPN 01 Tenjo and the conventional teacher centred method used in their mathematics classroom. The aim of this research was to identify whether there is an influence of firing line active learning approach on students’ motivation in learning mathematics. This research used quasi experimental post-test only control design. The subject if this research were the students at SMPN 01 Tenjo grade 8 in two classes 8.1 and 8.2 with the total number of students are 65 students. In order to get the data, students learning motivation questionnaire used in this research. Then, t-test used to analyse the data. It was proven by the results of tvalue = 2.043 and ttable = 1.998. (2.043 > 1.998). It was found out that the average score of students’ mathematics learning motivation in experiment class (which use firing line active learning approach) is greater than in the control classroom (that use conventional learning method). In conclusion, the firing line active learning approach influenced students’ motivation in learning mathematics.
