Furthermore, the Mind Mapping learning model was used to assess the attitudes of students toward mathematics learning. The method used in this research was quasi-experimental method. This research was conducted in two classes of VIII at SMPN 4 Situraja which functioned as an experimental class and a control class. The instruments used were tests of understanding mathematical concepts and student attitude questionnaires which given at the beginning and end of the lesson.
