The objectives of the research are to investigate: (1) how effective the problem-solving and contextual learning strategies are towards the students’ learning achievement in Mathematics; (2) among the groups of students with the auditory, kinesthetic, and visual learning styles, which group of the students has a better learning achievement in Mathematics; (3) in the problem-solving learning strategy, among the groups of students with the auditory, kinesthetic, and visual learning styles, which group of students has a better learning achievement in Mathematics; (4) in the contextual learning strategy, among the groups of the students with the auditory, kinesthetic, and visual learning styles, which group of students has a better learning achievement in Mathematics; (5) towards the group of students with auditory learning style, of the problem-solving and contextual learning strategies, which learning strategy contributes better to the students’ learning achievement in Mathematics; (6) towards the group of students with the visual learning style, of the problem-solving and contextual learning strategies, which learning strategy contributes better to the students’ learning achievement in Mathematics; and (7) towards the group of students with the kinesthetic learning style, of the problem-solving and contextual learning strategies, which learning strategy contributes better to the students’ learning achievement in Mathematics. The research used a quasi-experimental research method. Its population was all of the students in Grade VII of Junior Secondary Schools in Surakarta city in the academic year of 2010/2011. The samples of the research were 191 students and were taken by using stratified cluster random sampling technique. The data of the research were gathered through documentation, questionnaire, and test. The test was multiple-choice test in order to investigate the students’ learning achievement in Mathematics. The students’ learning styles were identified by using the questionnaire. The preliminary test, that is, balance test, used t-test, and the pre-requisite tests of the t-test were normality and homogeneity tests. The normality test used Liliefors’s formula, and the homogeneity test used Bartlett’s test at the significance level of (α) = 5%. The data of the research were analyzed by using a two-way analysis of variance with unequal cells. Based on the results of the research, conclusions are drawn that: (1) the learning achievement in Mathematics of the group of students taught with the Problem-Solving learning strategy is better than that of the group of students taught with the Contextual learning strategy; (2) the learning achievement in Mathematics of the group of students with the auditory learning style is the same as that of the group of students with the kinesthetic learning style, the learning achievement in Mathematics of the group of students with the kinesthetic learning style is the same as that of the group of students with the visual learning style, and the learning achievement in Mathematics of the group of students with the auditory learning style is the same as that of the group of students with the visual learning style; (3) towards the group of students taught with the problem-solving learning strategy, the learning achievement in Mathematics of the group of students with the auditory learning style is the same as that of the group of students with the kinesthetic learning style, the learning achievement in Mathematics of the group of students with the kinesthetic learning style is the same as that of the group of students with the visual learning style, and the auditory learning style is the same as that of the group of students with the visual learning style; (4) towards the group of students taught with the contextual learning strategy, the learning achievement in Mathematics of the group of students with the auditory learning style is the same as that of the group of students with the kinesthetic learning style, the learning achievement in Mathematics of the group of students with the kinesthetic learning style is the same as that of the group of students with the visual learning style, and the auditory learning style is the same as that of the group of students with the visual learning style; (5) towards the group of students with the auditory learning style, the learning achievement in Mathematics of the group of students taught with the problem-solving learning strategy is better than that of the students taught with the contextual learning strategy; (6) towards the group of students with the kinesthetic learning style, the learning achievement in Mathematics of the group of students taught with the problem-solving learning strategy is better than that of the group of students taught with the contextual learning strategy; and (7) towards the group of students with the visual learning style, the learning achievement in Mathematics of the students taught with the problem-solving learning strategy is better than that of the group of students taught with the contextual learning strategy.
