The Improvement of mathematical generalization reasoning of university students by concept attainment model

This study aims to look for the improvement students of university on mathematical generalization reasoning by concept attainment looked from overall, Prior Mathematical Knowledge (PMK) and interaction between learning models and PMK toward mathematical generalization reasoning. This research is designed by Quasi experiments. The one of State Islamic Universities is the place of this research . This research used Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Levene test, t-test, two-way for analysing the data. The results of this study are: (1) The students’ improvement on mathematical generalization reasoning who taught by concept attainment model is better than those who taught by conventional learning looked from overall; (2) There is interaction between learning models and PMK toward students’ improvement on mathematical generalization reasoning.
