ABSTRACT

The problem in this study is the low mathematical problem-solving ability caused by ineffective learning, the use of learning models that are not innovative, the lack of use of learning media that can visualize mathematical concepts, and the different learning styles of each student. This study aims to analyze the ability of mathematical problem solving in child-friendly learning through discovery learning model based on applet geogebra in terms of David Kolb's learning style. This research uses mixed methods design with concurrent embedded model. The instruments in this research are David Kolb learning style test questionnaire and math problem solving ability test questions. The results showed that the math problem solving ability of students with diverging learning styles was in the sufficient category in problem solving. The math problem solving ability of students with assimilating learning style is in thesufficient category in problem solving. The mathematical problem-solving ability of students with a converging learning style is in the sufficient category in problem solving. The mathematical problem-solving ability of students with an accommodating learning style is in the sufficient category in problem solving.

Keywords: learning style, discovery learning, math problem solving ability
