Correlation of Interest in Learning and Reasoning Ability Influences Students

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to measure a significant relationship between students' interest in learning and students' mathematical reasoning ability on three-dimensional geometry material in class XI of SMK Negeri 1 Tangerang Regency in the 2021/2022 Academic Year. This study is correlational. The samples in this study were 34 people taken with the Cluster Random Sampling technique. The data collection technique in this study used a questionnaire instrument in the form of a scale of interest in learning and student test results. Data analysis was tested using correlation analysis, validity tests, reliability, linear regression, and hypothesis tests. Based on data analysis, the Product Moment Correlation value of 0.616 means that the correlation level is quite strong and the level of the Coefficient of Determination of 37.95% is the student's mathematical reasoning ability determined by the student's interest in learning, the rest is determined by other factors. Ho Hypothesis Test is accepted because the t count is greater than t table 4,423 > 2,021. So this proves that there is a significant correlation between students' interest in learning and students' mathematical reasoning ability on three-dimensional geometry material in class XI OF SMK Negeri 1 Kabupaten Tangerang.
