Abstract

Abstract: This research is based on mathematics learning achievement on Matrix topic of students XI IPS 1 MAN Insan Cendekia Siak which shows that 12 of 23 students still have scores which stand under Minimum Mastery Criteria (MMC) that has been settled by the school that is 76. This research aims to improve learning process and students’ mathematics learning achievement by applying Discovery Learning (DL) model. The type of this research is classroom action research with two cycles. The research instruments used are mathematical learning instruments and data collecting instruments. The mathematical learning instruments are syllabus, lesson plans, and students worksheet. The data collecting instruments are observation sheets and students mathematic tests.
