Abstract

The elaboration of a learning model between a Team Assisted Individualisation learning model and Co-Op Co-Op learning model aims to improve the students' understanding of mathematics, which consists of conceptual and procedural understanding with an emphasis on the importance of 4C (critical thinking, creative thinking, collaboration, and communication) skills, and a proficiency in accordance with Education 4.0. A true experimental design was conducted in this study with random cluster sampling techniques for grade X senior high school science students. The analysis of t-independent test resulted that α > p (0.05 > 0.001). It indicated a difference of the students' understanding of mathematics between the experimental class and the control class after the application of the learning model. The average increase in the students' understanding of mathematics on the experimental class was 0.73 (high category), while the average increase in the control class is 0.55 (medium category). These results were confirmed by the preferences of the students' positive response of 3.23, after the learning process. The elaboration was improving the students' understanding of mathematics through knowledge design, with critical and creative thinking and communication processes through the exchange of ideas in the problem-solving phase so that students have a better and more thorough understanding. Moreover, the elaboration model could be an alternative to a learning model to increase students' understanding of mathematics. © 2019 Primrose Hall Publishing Group.
