Evidence¶

Tambunan 2019¶

Hardi Tambunan. (2019). The Effectiveness of the Problem Solving Strategy and the Scientific Approach to Students' Mathematical Capabilities in High Order Thinking Skills. International Electronic Journal of Mathematics Education, 14(2), 293-302. https://doi.org/10.29333/iejme/5715

q2 · i? · causal · r2

Quasi-experimental group comparison on reasoning; experimental n = 138, control n = 139. Reasoning posttest mean was 77.7246 (experiment) versus 72.0360 (control).

"The results of the t test show that the value of t = 11.754, Sig. <0.025, the null hypothesis was rejected, and therefore, problem solving strategies are more effective than the scientific approach to students' abilities in mathematical reasoning."
