Abstract

The aim of this study was to describe the learning process of mathematics through Self Regulation Learning strategy in improving the students’ motivation and achievement on the seventh grade students of SMP Taman Dewasa Ibu Pawiyatan Yogyakarta in the academic year 2013/2014. The study was a Classroom Action Research (CAR). The subject of the study was the students of  VII Aat SMP Taman Dewasa Ibu Pawiyatan Yogyakarta in the academic year 2013/2014 which consists of 28 students. The object of the study was the learning process and the result obtained from the implementation of Self Regulation Strategy. The techniques of  data collection were observation, questionnaire, test and documentation. The technique of data analysis for students’ motivation was obtained from calculating the questionnaire’s score taken from percentage on each aspect, and for the students’ achievement was obtained from calculating the avarage test score and percentage that fulfilled the KKM score. The result of the study showed that the students’ motivation and achievement could be increased through Self Regulation Learning Strategy. It was proved by the improvement of average questionnaire’s score of the students’ motivation from 59.26% in pre-cycle to 68.62% in cycle I and then 84.54% in cycle II. The learning achievement was also increased which could be seen from the average score from 61.429 in pre-cycle to 66.905 in cycle I and 79.911 in cycle II. Moreover, the students’ KKM score (70) was also increased from 35.71%  in pre-cycle to 60.71% in cycle I and 79.91 in cycle II. It was suggested that mathematics teachers could apply this effective strategy in their teaching and learning process.
