Abstract

This research highlights how the mathematical understanding of third-grade elementary school students is influenced by the Numbered Heads Together (NHT) collaborative education strategy. The improvement in mathematical understanding among third-grade students has been demonstrated through the NHT cooperative learning strategy. The study utilized a pre-experimental approach employing a single-group pre-test post-test design and quantitative analysis with Saturated Sampling to select 24 students. Data were collected through pre-tests and post-tests consisting of 10 questions, which were then analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics 23 for Windows. The findings indicate a significant rise in the pre-test score (92.9167) to the post-test score (83.1250). The validity of this increase has been confirmed through matched Samples T-Test (significance 0.000 < 0.05) and also through the Chi-Square test (0.16 > 0.14). This suggests that cooperative learning with the NHT method has a valuable effect on the mathematical understanding of third-grade students. The implication of these findings is the necessity for enhanced pedagogical tactics at the elementary level to maximize the benefits of NHT cooperative learning in improving students’ mathematical understanding.
