Abstract

Abstract : This study aims to improve problem solving skills on story problems for students through the application of the Problem Solving learning model. This type of research is a class action research with two cycles. The subjects of this research were 5th grade students of SDN Karangbesuki 3 in Malang City. This research was conducted in the odd semester of the 2024/2025 academic year. The data collection technique used in this study was a test. The data collection instrument was a problem solving ability test sheet consisting of pretest and posttest. The data analysis technique used was descriptive statistical analysis technique for quantitative data. The results showed that the application of the Problem Solving learning model can improve students' math problem solving skills.
