Students still experience difficulties in finding the connection between a math topic, both with other math topics and with other disciplines and with everyday life in the process of learning mathematics in the classroom. This is because the element of connection in learning rarely appears. Accordance with this, it is necessary to use the right strategy to improve students' connection skills, one of which is the use of mind mapping. This type of research is a quantitative descriptive with a pretest-posttest design. The research population was one of the public high schools in the city of Padang with a sample of one class in class XI IPA. The data in this study were collected through pre-tests (limit function), question sheets containing mind maps, and final tests (derivatives). The collected data were analyzed descriptively and using inferential statistics in the form of a t-test. The results showed that the students' mathematical connection skills in class XI IPA were better than before. In addition, students' ability to make connections between math topics (K1), with other disciplines (K2) and with the real world/daily life of students (K3) has increased compared to before. Based on these results it was concluded that students' mathematical connection abilities increased after learning using mind mapping.

This research is motivated by the students'poorly mathematical connection ability, more teacher-centered learning. The purpose of this study was to find out whether the mathematical connection ability of students who took part in the learning with the contextual approach was better than the students' mathematical connection ability with the conventional approach in class VII Of Junior High School 1 Banuhampu. The type of this research used is experimental. In the experimental class the teaching and learning process is carried out by applying the contextual learning approach while the control class uses conventional learning. Based on the results of data analysis obtained = 2.45> = 1.67 so that the results of the study show that the mathematical connection ability of students who follow learning with a contextual approach is better than the students' mathematical connection ability with conventional approaches in class VII Of Junior High School 1 Banuhampu
