The Effectiveness of Student Worksheet (LKM) Based on Guided Discovery Learning on Matrix Material of Building Engineering Education Students

The need for teaching materials that are able to facilitate and guide students for independent learning makes it easier for students to find and understand concepts correctly
as the background of this research. Text books have not been able to help students understand and remember mathematical concepts well. Therefore, a concept of “Student Work Sheet” (LKM) based on guided discovery learning on matrix material was developed. After the SWS developed, it has shown the effectiveness of the use of the SWS in the learning process. The subjects of this study were students of Building Engineering Education Study Program at the State University of Medan that were able to study basic engineering mathematics courses. Based on the analysis it was found that the percentage of post-test was greater than the percentage of pretest (84,85> 24,24%) and was filed in the Good criteria and the results of paired simple-t test showed that the value of tcount (18,3715)> ttable (2,037). This means that LKM based on guided discovery learning is declared effective for use. After the SWS developed, it has shown the effectiveness of the use of the SWS in the learning process.
