Abstract


Abstract: Understanding the concept of mathematics is very important for elementary school students because it is the basic foundation of learning. The direct learning model is one way to help improve students' understanding of concepts. This study aims to determine the increased understanding of mathematical concepts through direct learning. Researchers took samples from class II A MI Baitul Mukminin students. Researchers obtained data from observations, interviews, and learning outcomes. Researchers used test instruments in the form of pre-test, post-test to measure students' level of understanding. The results showed that learning mathematics through the Direct Learning Model could improve students' understanding of mathematical concepts in class II A at MI Baitul Mukminin Jati Kudus. This increase was evident in the test results and how students worked on practice questions. In the pre-test questions, there were 15 students whose scores were below the Minimum Completeness Criteria. In the exercise the researcher gave, there were 11 students whose scores were below the Minimum Completeness Criteria. Then in the post-test, there were only five students with scores below the Minimum Completeness Criteria 31 students in class II A. This score showed that students could understand the material presented by the researcher through a direct learning model. There is a significant difference between students' understanding of the pre-test and post-test.
