ALWASHIYAH TEMBUNG}, year={2012}, url={http://digilib.unimed.ac.id/9818/}, abstract={The purposes of this research are : 1) To show the example of exemplary material for teaching problem solving to improve problem solving ability of students, 2) To know the effectiveness of the exemplary material between teacher and students, 3) To know the implementability of Exemplary material to improve problem solving ability of students. The types of research is developmental research by using Plomp?s Model which taken by 5 phases; Preliminary Investigation, Design Phase, Realization Phase, Phase of Test, Realization and Revision, and then the implementation Phase. The research has done in MTs. Alwashliyah Tembung. The subject of this research are the students in VIII-1 grade and the object of research is developing exemplary material for teaching mathematics problem solving ability of polyhedron for students of 8-th grade by using problem based learning strategy. The result of the problem formulation are; 1) Based on the assessment of 3 validator, the exemplary material (Lesson plan) which should be develop can be use as an exemplary material was valid with average 3.7 and have a high reliability for teaching mathematics problem solving ability of polyhedron for students of 8thgrade by using problem-based learning strategy. 2) The effectiveness of the teaching and learning both of teacher and students by using problem based learning strategy is effective, 3) the implementability of the exemplary material by using problem solving ability to improve the problem based learning strategy is succeed. Because the wishes is if the students of the test get the completeness are ?70% with the minimum value is 70, the research is done, and then from the data in the field there are 71% students got completeness in the final exam. Then, we get the result of research. Keyword: Developing exemplary material, Student?s problem, Solution which suggestion.} }
