This study is aimed to determine the impact of students' perceptions on the
use of learning methods of debriefing, discussion and motivation to excel on
learning outcomes in mathematics. The sampling technique is proportionate
stratified random sampling that by using Solvin formula provides 204 students
from a population of 418 samples. Data collection technique of students’
perceptions, discussion, and motivation to excel has been done by using primary
data by questionnaire. Mathematics learning result is obtained from secondary
data by using multiple-choice question result in the final exam of the third
semester. While the methods of analysis used in this study were multiple linear
regression.
The result of this study indicates that there is significant impact of studens’
perceptions on the use of debriefing as learning method on the result of
mathematic learning outcomes, that there is significant impact of motivation to
excel on the result of mathematic learning outcomes, that there is significant
impact of students’ perception on the use of debriefing, discussion, and
motivation to excel altogether on the result of mathematic learning outcomes.
Nevertheless, there is no significant impact of students’ perception on the use of
discussion as a learning method on the result of mathematic learning outcomes.
Keywords: students’ perception on the use of debriefing, discussion, motivation
to excel, and mathematic learning outcomes
