The effect of cooperative learning model of think pair share type in terms of student’s mathematical conceptual understanding

This research aimed to find out the effect of cooperative learning model of think pair share type in terms of student’s mathematical conceptual understanding. The population of this research was all students of grade VII of SMPN 2 Palas in the even semester academic year of 2018/2019 that were distributed into 5 classes that were VIIA to VIIE class, then by using cluster random sampling technique it was chosen VIIE as an experiment class and VIID as an control class. This research used the randomized pretest-posttest control group design. The data of this research obtained through essay test of the comparison material. Based on the results of this research, students’ mathematical conceptual understanding who take of TPS learning were higher than students’ mathematical conceptual understanding of non-TPS learning. Therefore, the implementation of TPS learning was effects in term of students’ mathematical conceptual understanding
