Abstract

The objectives of this study were to know the mathematics learning achievement of the seventh-grade students of SMP Negeri 13 Makassar before and after receiving learning using of giving reinforcement and punishment and to know the influence of reinforcement and punishment in mathematics learning achievement at the seventh-grade students of SMP Negeri 13 Makassar. This study used a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental type of research. The research design used was a non-equivalent control group design. The population of this study was all the seventh-grade students of SMP Negeri 13 Makassar. The sampling technique used is non-probability sampling. The sample in this study was class VII_D as a control class and class VII_B as an experimental class, each of which consisted of 36 students. Data collection was carried out using instruments in the form of observation sheets to observe student activities during the activity and question sheets to know students’ mathematics learning achievement before and after treatment. The data that had been obtained was then analyzed using descriptive analysis and inferential analysis t-test. The descriptive analysis results show that the average increase in students’ mathematics learning achievement in the experimental class is higher than the average increase in students’ mathematics learning achievement in the control class. The result of the inferential analysis shows that (1) the percentage of students’ mathematics learning achievement before treatment was lower than the percentage of students’ mathematics learning achievement after the treatment was given in the form of learning using of giving reinforcement and punishment (2) there was an influence of giving reinforcement and punishment in mathematics learning achievement at the seventh-grade students of SMP Negeri 13 Makassar.
