Learn to Discover Pythagoras Theorem with Interactive Multimedia

The difficulty of using discovery learning model in learning mathematics is the presence of abstract elements that have not been able to be understood by junior high school students. One solution of the problem is to use interactive multimedia. The purpose of this article is to find out the effectiveness of the learning model of Discovery Learning, the subject matter of Pythagoras theorem with interactive multimedia. The method used is quasi experiment. The study population was all students of grade VIII MTs Al-Furqon with samples consisting of two classes, each as an experimental class and control class. The data analysis technique used to hypothesis test is t-test. The result of this research is learning model of Discovery Learning material of Pythagoras theorem by using interactive multimedia more effectively than learning model of Discovery Learning material of Pythagoras theorem without interactive multimedia. Keywords—Learn; Discovery Learning; Interactive Multimedia; Pythagoras Theorem.
