ABSTRACT
Objectives of this research are: (1) To know how Numbered Heads Together type
of cooperative learning model can improve students’ mathematical learning
achievement, (2) To know the effectiveness of Numbered Heads Together type of
cooperative learning model to students’ mathematical learning achievement, and
(3) To know response that given by students to mathematics learning after
implementation Numbered Heads Together type of cooperative learning model.
This research include to Class Action Research (CAR) that was conducted in SMP
N 2 Porsea. The subject of this research is all of students in VIII-1 class academic
year 2014/2015 with number of students as many as 24 students that consist of 20

females and 4 males. Object of this research is students’ mathematical learning
achievement and Numbered Heads Together type of cooperative learning model.
The research was conduct in two cycles, cycle I consists of two meetings and
cycle II consists of two meetings. The mathematical learning achievement test
was conduct in the end of cycle. The research result can be seen as follows: (1)
The result of students’ mathematical learning achievement test in cycle I: the
average score was 67.71, there were 15 students got score greater than or equal to
65, 9 students got score less than 65, and classical learning mastery was 62,50%.
(2) Implementation Numbered Heads Together type of cooperative learning
model to improve students’ mathematical learning achievement was effective, (3)
Responses that given by students to mathematics learning after implementation
Numbered Heads Together type of cooperative learning model was positive.
Keywords: Numbered Heads Together, Students’ Mathematical Learning

CHAPTER V
CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS

5.1. Conclusions
1. Implementation of learning by using Numbered Heads Together type of
cooperative learning model was conducted by teacher conveyed learning
material, and then students were divided into six groups that consist of 4
students and ask them to solve the problems in SAS. In here, teacher always
gave motivation and guidance so that students can solve the problems
correctly and all of member in the group be active during discussion process.
After that teacher called a number to present the group discussion result and
gave opportunity to other students to give their opinions. After that, teacher
and students make conclusion about learning material that already learned and
finally students got knowledge that can improve their learning achievement.
2. Implementation Numbered Heads Together type of cooperative learning
model to improve students’ mathematical learning achievement is effective.
3. Response that given by students to mathematics learning after implementation
Numbered Heads Together type of cooperative learning model is positive.

5.2. Suggestions
Based on the research result, then the author gives some suggestions to the
mathematics learning, especially in Senior High School, as follows:
1. In the implementation Numbered Heads Together type of cooperative learning
model, its better teacher gives motivate to students to develop their confidence
that will present their discussion result, because not all students are ready to
make presentation.
2. For teacher is suggested to change the group member after one cycle to make
a new learning condition in the classroom that can support enthusiastic of
students.

67

3. For the next researcher who wants to do research using Numbered Heads
Together type of cooperative learning model expected to manage the time for
each step because Numbered Heads Together require much time especially
when student presenting their discussion result.
4. For the teacher can use Numbered Heads Together type of cooperative
learning model to improve students’ mathematical learning achievement.
