Abstract

This study aims to: 1) Find learning devices based on contextual teaching and learning (CTL) that can improve students' mathematic problem solving skills at SMP Negeri 1 Hamparan Perak; 2) Find learning devices based on contextual teaching and learning (CTL) that can increase student self-efficacy at SMP Negeri 1 Hamparan Perak; 3) Find practical contextual teaching and learning (CTL) based learning devices that can improve the problem solving and self-efficacy ability of students at SMP Negeri 1 Hamparan Perak; 4) Find learning devices based on contextual teaching and learning (CTL) that are effective to improve the problem-solving ability and mathematic self-efficacy of students at SMP Negeri 1 Hamparan Perak. The results show that: 1) Students' mathematic problem solving ability using learning devices based on contextual teaching and learning (CTL) increased; 2) The increase in students' self-efficacy after using contextual teaching and learning (CTL) based learning devices has increased; 3) The developed contextual teaching and learning (CTL) based learning device met the criteria for practicality of the learning devices; 4) The learning devices developed through contextual teaching and learning (CTL) to improve students' mathematics problem solving ability and self-efficacy have met the criteria of being effective.
