Abstract

This study aims to: 1) To analyze the increase in mathematical reasoning ability of SMP Negeri 2 Bangkinang Kota students taught by the problem posing learning device developed 2) To analyze the increase in self-efficacy of SMP Negeri 2 Bangkinang Kota students taught by the problem posing learning device developed 3) To analyze the effectiveness of problem posing learning devices developed to improve mathematical reasoning and self-efficacy abilities of SMP Negeri 2 Bangkinang Kota 4) students to analyze the practicality of problem posing learning devices developed to improve mathematical reasoning abilities and self-efficacy of state junior high school students 2 Bangkinang City. The subjects in this study were students of SMP Negeri 2 Bangkinang Kota in class VIII-1 with 27 students and VIII-2 with 29 students. The results showed that: 1. Improvement of students 'mathematical reasoning abilities using the problem posing learning tool on the material of the Two Variable Linear Equation System (SPLDV) was the average achievement of students' mathematical reasoning abilities in the first try of 71.60 increasing to 78.71 in the trials II. 2. Increasing students' self-esteem from trial I to trial II using the problem posing learning device for each student motivation indicator including: (1) experience of success, where in trial I with an average of 27.80 while in the test try II with an average of 27.86, an increase of 0.06; (2) Indicators of other people's experiences, where in trial I with an average of 27.56, while in trial II amounted to 27.98, an increase of 0.42; (3) Indicators of social approach, in trial I with an average of 28.17 and an average in trial II of 28.18, experienced an increase of 0.01; and (4) Indicators of psychological and emotional state in trial I with an average of 26.13 and an average in trial II of 26.32, an increase of 0.19.
