Abstract

The existence of learning media, such as Desmos, can make it easier for students to learn mathematics. On the other hand, mathematics communication skills are still low, and students need self-directed learning. The study investigates the impact of a cooperative learning model, aided by Desmos, on students’ mathematical communication skills and self-directed learning in financial mathematics. This research is quantitative. The sample for this research is 34 11th-grade vocational students who were selected based on simple random sampling with a one-group pretest-posttest research design. The data collection instrument used a financial mathematics test to determine students’ mathematical communication and a questionnaire to determine students’ self-directed learning. Hypothesis testing paired t-test was carried out on student communication and questionnaire results. The study’s results obtained a p-value of 0.000 <0.05, which indicated a change in the average students’ mathematical communication after being given treatment, and for self-directed learning, there was also a difference from an average of 198.41 to 212.79. It is proven that mathematical communication and student self-directed learning can be improved using Desmos.
