Abstract

Toraja engraving is rich in mathematical concepts, especially geometric concepts such as points, angles, lines, flat buildings (squares, rectangles, triangles, and so on). Each carving has its own history that can be told to children, in addition to attracting their attention, it also introduces Toraja culture from an early age. This study aims to determine the improvement of geometry learning outcomes of grade VII students of SMP Negeri 4 Sesean in learning using Toraja carving media with storytelling techniques. This type of research is a class action study that is carried out in two cycles and each cycle consists of two meetings. Data collection techniques use observation of learners’ activities during learning, field notes, and learning outcomes tests. Data analysis using qualification and quantitative. The results showed that there was an increase in student geometry learning outcomes through the use of Toraja carving media with storytelling techniques where in the first cycle of 24 students who completed their learning 65% and in cycle II it increased to 90% with very good theory. This data shows that the second cycle has met the success indicators so that it can be concluded that learning improvements using Toraja carving media with storytelling techniques can improve the geometry learning outcomes of grade VII students of SMP Negeri 4 Sesean.
