This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Learning Cycle 5E model in developing the mathematical representation ability of Junior High School Students. This study was quantitative. The population was students in Junior High School of grade VIII in Semarang. The sample was taken by a random sampling technique. The data were collected by a test. The data were analyzed by the z-test and t-test. The result showed that (1) students' mathematical representation ability on the Learning Cycle 5E class achieve classical completeness; (2) the average of mathematical representation ability on the Learning Cycle 5E class was higher than on the PBL class; and (3) the proportion of students' mathematical representation ability on the Learning Cycle 5E class was higher than on the PBL class. In other words, the Learning Cycle 5E model was effective in developing the mathematical representation ability of Junior High School Students. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
