ABSTRAK
Penelitian tindakan kelas ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan motivasi belajar matematika siswa pada materi segitiga dan segiempat dalam sistem moving class melalui model pembelajaran Quantum Teaching pada siswa kelas VIIE SMP Muhammadiyah 7 Surakarta tahun ajaran 2012/2013.
Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian tindakan kelas yang dilaksanakan dalam 2 siklus. Setiap siklus terdiri dari 4 tahap yaitu perencanaan, tindakan, observasi, dan refleksi. Subyek penelitian ini adalah siswa kelas VIIE SMP Muhammadiyah 7 Surakarta tahun ajaran 2012/2013 sebanyak 29 siswa aktif. Teknik pengumpulan data adalah dengan angket, observasi, tes, dan dokumentasi. Data yang dikumpulkan pada penelitian ini adalah data motivasi belajar matematika siswa yang diperoleh dari hasil angket, data prestasi belajar matematika siswa yang diperoleh dari tes akhir siklus, serta data pelaksanaan proses pembelajaran yang diperoleh dari observasi dan dokumentasi. Pelaksanaan model pembelajaran Quantum Teaching dilakukan dengan strategi permainan KARTU JUARA. Indikator keberhasilan penelitian ini adalah jika 50% siswa kelas VIIE memiliki motivasi belajar matematika pada kategori tinggi dan 50% siswa kelas VIIE mencapai batas KKM yaitu ≥ 65. Indikator motivasi belajar siswa dilihat dari 10 aspek, diantaranya (1) Tingkat kesiapan, (2) Kemauan, (3) Perhatian, (4) Daya serap, (5) Partisipasi, (6) Keaktifan, (7) Keantusiasan siswa, (8) Kerja sama antar siswa, (9) Keingintahuan, (10) Nilai.
Pada kegiatan pra siklus, diperoleh prosentase motivasi belajar matematika siswa untuk kategori sangat rendah sebesar 20,69%, kategori rendah sebesar 65,52%, kategori tinggi sebesar 13,79%, dan kategori sangat tinggi sebesar 0%. Sedangkan untuk prestasi belajar siswa belum ada yang mencapai KKM, sehingga dapat dikatakan sebesar 0% siswa mencapai KKM. Pada siklus I, diperoleh prosentase motivasi belajar matematika siswa untuk kategori sangat rendah sebesar 6,897%, kategori rendah sebesar 58,62%, kategori tinggi sebesar 34,48%, dan kategori sangat tinggi sebesar 0%. Sedangkan untuk prestasi belajar matematika siswa diperoleh prosentase sebesar 10,34% siswa yang telah mencapai KKM. Pada siklus II, diperoleh prosentase motivasi belajar matematika siswa untuk kategori sangat rendah sebesar 3,448%, kategori rendah sebesar 27,59%, kategori tinggi sebesar 65,52%, dan kategori sangat tinggi sebesar 3,448%. Sedangkan untuk prestasi belajar matematika siswa diperoleh prosentase sebesar 65,52% siswa yang telah mencapai KKM. Perubahan prosentase pada siklus II telah memenuhi indikator keberhasilan penelitian yang sudah ditentukan bersama oleh guru dan peneliti.
Berdasarkan hal tersebut, dapat disimpulkan bahwa motivasi belajar matematika siswa pada materi segitiga dan segiempat dalam sistem moving class dapat meningkat melalui penerapan model pembelajaran Quantum Teaching pada siswa kelas VIIE SMP Muhammadiyah 7 Surakarta tahun ajaran 2012/2013.

ABSTRACT
This classroom action research aimed to improve student’s mathematics learning motivation in triangular and rectangular material in moving class system through Quantum Teaching learning models in students of class VIIE SMP Muhammadiyah 7 Surakarta academic year 2012/2013.
This research was a classroom action research that has been done in 2 cycles. Each cycle has 4 stages, it consisted of: planning, action, observation, and reflection. The subject of this research was the students of class VIIE SMP Muhammadiyah 7 Surakarta academic year 2012/2013 with 29 active students. The data collection techniques were questionnaires, observation, testing, and documentation. The collected data in the research were student’s mathematics learning motivation from questionnaires result, achievement of student’s mathematics learning result from post test at the end of cycle, and the implementation of learning process as well as data obtained from observation and documentation. Implementation of the Quantum Teaching learning models conducted by CHAMPION CARD game strategy. The successful indicators in this research was showed if 50% students of class VIIE have motivation of mathematics learning at high category and 50% students of class VIIE reached the limit KKM ≥ 65. The student motivation indicators viewed from 10 aspects, consisted of (1) Level of preparedness, (2) Volition, (3) Attention, (4) Absorption, (5) Participation, (6) Being active, (7) Student enthusiasm, (8) Cooperation among students, (9) Curiousity (10) Score.
In the pre cycle activity, it was found that the percentage of students’ motivation to learn mathematics for a very low category was 20.69%, lower category was 65.52%, high category was 13.79%, and very high category was 0%. And no one of the students reached KKM, so it can be said that to be equal to 0% of students reached KKM. In the first cycle, it was found that the percentage of students’s motivation to learn mathematics for a very low category was 6.897%, lower category was 58.62%, high category was 34.48%, and very high category was 0%. On the other hand, there were 10.34% of students have reached KKM for learning achievement category. In the second cycle, it was found that the percentage of students’s motivation to learn mathematics for a very low category was 3.448%, lower category was 27.59%, high category was 65.52%, and very high category was 3.448%. On the other hand, there were 65.52% of students have reached KKM for learning achievement category. The percentage changed in the second cycle has fulfilled indicators of research that have been determined by teacher and researcher.
Based on those paragraph above, it can be concluded that the students' motivation to learn mathematics in a triangular and rectangular material in moving class system can be improved through the application of Quantum Teaching learning models in class VIIE SMP Muhammadiyah 7 Surakarta academic year 2012/2013.
