Abstract

This research aimed to improve the learning process and improved the student’s mathematic achievement through the implementation of problem based learning. The research was the classroom action research with two cycles. The research was conducted in student of class VII₃ SMPN 4 Pekanbaru in odd semester of the 2018/2019 academic year with the subject is 38 students.
