The objectives of hierarchical learning in hierarchical learning start from understanding mathematical concepts to a higher level. Understanding mathematical concepts is the initial foundation for students to be able to achieve other mathematical goals. This shows that the ability to understand mathematical concepts is a basic ability that students must have in learning mathematics. One mathematical learning model that can help understanding mathematical concepts is to apply the STAD type cooperative learning model. The STAD cooperative learning model is a model that is able to improve students ‘understanding of mathematical concepts because each stage of the learning model is able to support in improving students’ understanding of mathematical concepts. To find out and describe the development of students’ understanding of mathematical concepts with the STAD type cooperative learning model through student worksheets, a study was conducted in class VIII 3 of SMP Negeri 18 Padang. The quiz was conducted 6 quizzes and the results of the study showed that there had been an increase in understanding of students’ mathematical concepts during the application of the STAD type cooperative learning model.
