Abstract

Mathematics lesson is considered to be a difficult lesson for such students. As a consequence, their achievement in math is still very concerning. Thus, we need a learning model that makes students give positive responses toward math lesson. Discovery learning is as an alternative. But, there are schools that students of a class consisted of normal and special needs students. Implementation of learning process cannot be separated from those two kind of students. Thus, this article attempts to discuss students'responses toward discovery learning process by focusing on special needs students. To this aim, participant observation and documentation were conducted to reveal the data. The subjects of this study were students of Grade 9 SMP Pembangunan, Padang city. The findings shows that students give positive responses to the model especially in their attitudes towards discovery learning. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd.
