The Effect of Active Learning Method of Information Search Type On Students' Learning Outcomes On The Bhinneka Tunggal Ika Material Of Grade XI

Abstract

This study aims to determine the significant effect of the Active Learning Method of Information Search Type on Student Learning Outcomes in the Bhinneka Tunggal Ika Material of Class XI Odd Semester of SMA Swasta Tunas Gajah Mada Medan. This type of research is a quasi-experimental study to determine whether there is an influence or effect of something that is caused to the subject, namely students. The population of this study was all students of class XI Odd Semester of SMA Swasta Tunas Gajah Mada which consists of 4 classes totaling 144 people. Sampling was carried out using the Cluster random sampling technique, namely class XI IPS1 as an experimental class totaling 30 people taught with the Active Learning Method of Information Search Type and class XI IPS 2 as a control class totaling 30 people taught with the expository learning method. The instrument in this study consisted of 16 multiple-choice questions with 4 options (a, b, c, d) which had been tested for validity, reliability, level of difficulty and discrimination. The results of the study showed that the sample came from a homogeneous and normally distributed population. The results of the data analysis obtained the average pretest value of the experimental class was 35.00 with a standard deviation of 12.67 and the average value of the control class obtained pretest data of 36.04 with a standard deviation of 16.39. From the results of the two-tailed t-test statistical test, the value of t count = 0.611 and t table = 2.002 was obtained. because t count < t table (0.611 < 2.002), this states that the initial abilities of the two sample classes are the same. Then given different treatments, the average value of the experimental class was 85.42 with a standard deviation of 11.87 and the average value of the control class posttest was 77.08 with a standard deviation of 11.41, based on the results of the one-sided t-test statistical test, the price of t count = 2.789 and t table = 1.671 at a significance level of 0.05 and df = 58, because t count > t table (2.789 > 1.671) this shows that there is a significant influence of the Active Learning Method of Information Search Type on Student Learning Outcomes on the Main Material of Bhinneka Tunggal Ika Class XI Odd Semester of Tunas Gajah Mada Private High School.
