Implementation Of Problem-Based Learning Strategies In Vocational Secondary Schools In The Field Of Technology And Engineering Skills

Abstract

The research aims to determine the influence of learning strategies and Mathematics
anxiety on learning outcomes in the PRE (PRE). The research was carried out at SMK
Negeri 7 Bekasi City, West Java. Using experimental methods with a 2x2 factorial group
design. The research sample consisted of 36 students selected randomly. The research
results show that the PRE learning outcomes of students who use PBL learning strategies
are higher than those who use direct learning strategies after controlling for Mathematics
anxiety. There is an interaction effect between learning strategies and anxiety on students'
PRE learning outcomes after controlling for Mathematics anxiety. The PRE learning
outcomes of students who use PBL learning strategies for students who have high levels of
Mathematics anxiety are higher than students who use direct learning strategies. The PRE
learning outcomes of students who use PBL learning strategies for students who have low
anxiety are lower than students who are taught using direct learning strategies. It can be
concluded that there is an interaction effect between the use of learning strategies and
Mathematics anxiety on PRE learning outcomes.
