Abstract


This study examined the effect of Guided Discovery on students’ mathematical conceptual understanding of systems of linear equations in two variables. It used a quantitative, quasi-experimental approach with a nonequivalent control group design. The participants were 60 ninth-grade students at SMP Negeri 9 Pontianak, with 30 students in the experimental class and 30 in the control class. Understanding was assessed using five constructed-response items. All items met the validity criteria, with correlation coefficients ranging from 0.892 to 0.947; Cronbach’s alpha was 0.958. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Shapiro–Wilk test, the Wilcoxon signed-rank test, and the Mann–Whitney U test. The experimental class’s mean score increased from 5.67 on the pretest to 52.87 on the posttest, yielding a mean gain of 47.20. The control class’s mean score increased from 8.00 to 9.50, yielding a mean gain of 1.50. The Wilcoxon test showed a significant change in the experimental class (p < 0.001), but not in the control class (p = 0.270). The Mann–Whitney U test on gain scores showed a significant difference in improvement between the classes (U = 27.00; Z = ?6.266; p < 0.001), with mean ranks of 44.60 and 16.40 for the experimental and control classes, respectively. The effect size was large (r = 0.809). These findings indicate that the class taught using Guided Discovery showed greater improvement in mathematical conceptual understanding than the control class.
