ABSTRACT
This research analyzed mathematics communication skills with the Means-End Analysis model assisted with Manipulative Property (APM), MEA with Linear System Pro application, and PBL based on the eighth graders' self-efficacy. This quasi-experimental research used a nonequivalent pretest-posttest control group design. The subjects were eighth-graders of Public JHS 4 Adiwerna. The samples were VIII-C learners as the first experimental group, VIII-G learners as the second experimental group, and VIII-H learners as the control group. The data collecting techniques were mathematics communication skill test and self-efficacy inventory. The results were: (1) MEA with APM (82.75%), MEA with Linear System Pro (78.12%), and PBL (75%) of the learners reached the minimum mastery standard with a proportion percentage, 75%; (2) there were mean differences between MEA assisted by APM, MEA assisted by Linear System Pro, and PBL toward the learners’ mathematics communication skills, (3) there were significant differences of self-efficacy: high, moderate, and low toward the learners’ mathematics communication skills; and (4) there were interactions between learning models with the levels of self-efficacy toward learners’ mathematics communication skills.
Keywords: Mathematics Communication Skill, Means-End-Analysis Learning Model (MEA), Manipulative Property (APM), Linear System Pro, Self-efficacy.
