Abstract

The initial abilities of students differ from one student to another, one of which can be caused by differences in school origins. Some students come from high schools majoring in Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Social Studies, computers, agriculture, and even culinary. The difference in students’ initial abilities will certainly be a problem in terms of receiving lecture material with more complex material. This research provides an alternative way to solve the problem by holding a matriculation program. The research design was a pre-experimental single group pretest-posttest type, students who take the matriculation are given a pretest and posttest of 20 questions. Then the pretest and posttest results were compared and obtained an N-Gain score, which aims to see improvements. The sample in this study was 72 students, with a purposive sampling technique. The results showed an increase in the average pre-test score of 30.86 from 45.25 to 76.11. The percentage of N-Gain as much as 83.33% was included in the medium and good category so it can be concluded that effective matriculation can improve the initial ability of students majoring in mathematics education.
