THE EFFECTS OF LEARNING EXPERIENCE ON MATHEMATIC SELF-CONCEPT OF FIFTH GRADE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENTS IN YOGYAKARTA CITY AND BANTUL REGENCY

Abstract

This research aims to 1) find out the mathematics learning experience, 2) find out the mathematic self-concept, and 3) investigate the effect of mathematics learning experience towards mathematic self-concept at fifth grade elementary school students in Yogyakarta City and Bantul Regency. This research was conducted in the academic year of 2020/2021. This study used a quantitative survey research technique with a sample of 794 fifth grade elementary school students in the regions. The analysis technique used was descriptive analysis technique, prerequisite test, and simple linear regression analysis with a significance level (α) = 0.05. Based on the findings, it can be concluded that in both regions, 1). there is a high category in mathematics learning experiences among the students with a percentage of 52,77%, 2) a moderate category of mathematic self-concept of  the students is in a percentage of 42,95% and 3) there is an effect of mathematics learning experiences on mathematic self-concept which is shown by the positive and linear independent variable, Y = 18.459 + 0.555 with a significance 0,000, if the value of the student’s mathematics learning experience is high, the mathematic self-concept will follow the high of experience and vice versa.
