ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the Number Head Together (NHT) learning model with a Contextual approach to describe the mathematical communication skills of class VIII students based on Self Confidence. The method used in this study is a mixed method. Data was collected through tests, questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. The results showed that (1) the NHT learning model was more effective on mathematical communication skills which could be seen from the results of the experimental class mathematical communication ability test which was greater than the control class, (2) The pattern of mathematical communication skills in terms of Self Confidence varied. Of the 31 students there are students who fall into the less positive, positive and very positive categories. Therefore, this research can be an alternative in learning mathematics, especially the use of contextual approaches and mathematical communication skills that can be applied in learning with the NHT and Self Confidence models of students.
