Pencapaian hasil belajar merupakan aspek krusial dalam pendidikan dan bisa dianggap sebagai indikator kesuksesan siswa dalam proses pembelajaran. Namun, kenyataannya, prestasi belajar matematika siswa masih tergolong rendah. Ini disebabkan oleh rendahnya minat dan motivasi siswa, serta ketidaktepatan guru dalam merancang dan merencanakan pembelajaran, yang membuat siswa kurang aktif terlibat dalam proses pembelajaran. Salah satu cara untuk meningkatkan hasil belajar adalah dengan menerapkan model pembelajaran discovery learning. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui hasil belajar siswa melalui model discovery learning pada materi turunan fungsi aljabar. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan jenis penelitian Quasi Eksperimental Design dengan desain posttest only control group design. Populasi penelitian ini adalah seluruh siswa kelas XI SMA Negeri 1 Krueng Barona Jaya yang terdiri dari 4 kelas berjumlah 124 siswa. Pengambilan sampel kelas dilakukan dengan teknik random sampling dan diperoleh kelas XI IS 1 sebanyak 32 orang sebagai kelas eksperimen, kelas XI IS 2 sebanyak 32 orang. Teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan adalah teknik tes. Instrumen penelitian berupa soal essay materi turunan fungsi aljabar yang terdiri atas 3 soal. Data pada penelitian ini dianalisis dengan menggunakan statistik uji t satu pihak. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan hasil belajar siswa pada materi turunan di SMA Negeri 1 Krueng Barona Jaya melalui model discovery learning lebih baik daripada hasil belajar siswa melalui pembelajaran konvensional.

The achievement of learning outcomes is a crucial aspect of education and can be considered an indicator of students' success in the learning process. However, in reality, students' mathematics learning outcomes are still categorized as low. This is due to students' lack of interest and motivation, as well as the inadequacy of teachers in designing and planning lessons, leading to students' lack of active involvement in the learning process. One way to improve learning outcomes is by implementing the discovery learning model. The aim of this research is to determine students' learning outcomes through the discovery learning model on the topic of algebraic function derivatives. This research uses a quantitative approach with a Quasi-Experimental Design, specifically a posttest-only control group design. The population of this study consists of all 11th-grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Krueng Barona Jaya, totaling 124 students across four classes. The sample was selected using random sampling, resulting in XI IS 1 with 32 students as the experimental class, and XI IS 2 with 32 students as the control class. The data collection technique used was a test. The research instrument was an essay test on the topic of algebraic function derivatives, consisting of three questions. The data in this study were analyzed using one-tailed t test statistics. The results showed that students' learning outcomes on the topic of derivatives at SMA Negeri 1 Krueng Barona Jaya through the discovery learning model were better than those achieved through conventional teaching methods.
