Abstract. This study aims to determine whether there is an influence of the problem based learning model integrated with video animation on the mathematical problem solving abilities of class VIII students. This research was conducted at SMP Negeri 6 Percut Sei Tuan, TA 2022/2023. The research method used is a quasi-experimental design method. The sample in this study consisted of two classes namelyclass VIII-3 as the experimental class and class VIII-4 as the control class. The experimental class uses a problem-based learning model integrated with video animation and a control class with conventional learning. Obtaining the average score of the final test (posttest) of the experimental class students is equal to 89.22, whereas in the control class the average result of the student's final test score was 72.55, in the hypothesis test, the results obtained from the average difference test (t-test) with statistical values t_hitung>t_tabel(10.56 > 1,671 ) which means there is an influence from the usea problem-based learning model integrated with video animation that is applied to the experimental class. This indicates that the mathematical problem solving abilities of the experimental class students are better than the control class.

This is also caused by teachers not using learning strategies that attract students to be able to improve discussion skills. For this reason, an appropriate strategy is needed to be able to overcome these problems, by implementing the Teams Games Tournament (TGT) learning strategy. This research is a quasi-experimental research using quantitative data trends. The research design is a posttest-only-control design. The population in this study amounted to 123 students consisting of five classes. The sample for this study used 2 classes, namely class VII.5 as the experimental class and class VII.4 as the control class. The results showed that the average discussion ability of the experimental class was 73.73 and the average discussion ability of the control class was 49.48, so it can be seen that the average experimental class was greater than the control class with a difference of 24.25. Based on the sig (2-tailed) data from the data obtained, namely 0.000, it can be concluded that the value of 0.000 <0.05, it can be concluded that Ho is rejected and Hi is accepted or there is a significant influence on students' discussion abilities in the experimental class and control class.
