Abstract

Many high school students consider chemistry to be a difficult subject. Most students still have difficulty understanding chemical concepts comprehensively, but the obstacles they experience have not been fully identified by teachers. Chemistry is one of the subjects that is less favored by students, because science, especially chemistry, is studied abstract things. Students' difficulties in learning chemistry result in many students experiencing failure in learning chemistry material. This study aims to describe and explain various learning difficulties and the factors causing difficulties in learning chemistry experienced by high school students. This study involved 44 students from all grades XII MIA and one chemistry teacher as the subjects. This study used a phenomenological research type with a qualitative approach. The data collection process was carried out using document study methods, observation, questionnaires, and interviews. Based on the results of the study, the level of student learning difficulties is categorized as slightly difficult (43%), quite difficult (48%), and difficult (9%). Internal factors that cause learning difficulties include a lack of understanding of chemistry material, low mathematical ability, and minimal motivation in learning chemistry. External factors that influence learning difficulties include the teacher's teaching methods, the negative impact of socializing with peers, and less conducive learning situations and times.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the effect of applying the Project Based Learning (PjBL) model assisted by animated videos on students’ learning outcomes in atomic structure material at Grade X of SMA Negeri 3 Pematangsiantar. The research employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group. The participants consisted of two classes: the experimental class, which received instruction using PjBL assisted by animated videos, and the control class, which received conventional instruction. The research instrument was a learning achievement test administered before and after the treatment. Data were analyzed using a t-test and N-Gain calculation. The results indicated that the average pretest scores of both classes were relatively the same. After the learning intervention, the average posttest score of the experimental class increased significantly compared to the control class. The average N-Gain score of the experimental class was in the medium/high category, while that of the control class was in the low/medium category. The t-test result showed a significance value of p < 0.05, indicating a significant difference between the two classes. It can be concluded that the implementation of the Project Based Learning model assisted by animated videos has a positive effect on improving students’ learning outcomes in atomic structure material.

Abstract

Project-based learning is a learning strategy where students must build their own content knowledge and demonstrate new understanding gained through various forms of representation. Learning containing ethnoscience based on local wisdom, invites students to be close to their surrounding environment and be able to understand the phenomena that occur around them so that they can create a generation of products that are responsive and sensitive to the social and cultural environment of the nation. Chemistry learning can be integrated into ethnoscience because it involves contextual experiences in everyday life about local wisdom as learning materials and phenomena that exist in society. This study aims to develop interactive teaching materials based on projects and ethnoscience on the material of reaction rates that can improve students' creative thinking skills. This study uses the type of Research and Development (R&D) development research, with the ADDIE model. Data collection techniques are observation techniques, written tests, questionnaires and documentation. The results of the study obtained: (1) The proportion of students' creative thinking skills completion in the experimental class and control class is more than 75%; (2) The average creative thinking skills of students using interactive teaching materials based on projects and ethnoscience on the material of reaction rates is greater than the completion value.; (3) Analysis of two-way tests proves that the application of interactive project-based and ethnoscience-based teaching materials on reaction rate material has an effect on students' creative thinking skills; (4) Analysis of the N-Gain test of the experimental class and control class shows a moderate increase, namely 0.4 and 0.3.

Abstract

This study was motivated by the low level of cultural literacy among PGSD UHKBPNP students concerning Batak Toba culture, due to the lack of teaching materials integrating local values. The objective of this research is to develop an innovative teaching module based on Batak Toba ethnoculture to enhance students’ cultural literacy. The research employed a development method using the Nieveen, McKenney, and Van den Akker model, which consists of three stages: preliminary, development, and evaluation. The research instruments included expert validation sheets and cultural literacy tests (pretest–posttest) administered to 45 PGSD students enrolled in the Advanced Indonesian Language Learning course. Validation results by experts indicated that the module achieved an average score of 88.5%, categorized as very good. Effectiveness testing using n-gain analysis showed a significant improvement in students’ cultural literacy, with average pretest and posttest scores of 56.2 and 82.4, respectively, and an n-gain value of 0.59 (medium–high category). These findings demonstrate that the innovative Batak Toba ethnocultural-based teaching module is valid, practical, and effective in improving students’ cultural literacy. The development of this module contributes to strengthening students’ cultural identity and supports the preservation of local culture in the globalization era. Keywords: Teaching module, Batak Toba ethnoculture, Cultural literacy

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model assisted by animated videos on students’ learning outcomes in chemical bonding material at SMA Swasta Teladan Pematangsiantar. This study employed a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental design, specifically the Nonequivalent Control Group Design. The research sample consisted of class XI-1 as the experimental class and class XI-2 as the control class. Data were collected using learning outcome tests administered as a pretest and a posttest. The data were analyzed using normality tests, homogeneity tests, an independent-samples t-test, and the N-Gain test. The analysis showed that the significance value of the t-test was 0.000 < 0.05; therefore, H₀ was rejected and Hₐ was accepted. The average N-Gain score of the experimental class was 64.79%, while that of the control class was 15.98%. Thus, the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model assisted by animated videos was more effective in improving students’ learning outcomes in chemical bonding material than conventional learning.

Abstract

Indonesian students’ critical thinking skills remain relatively low, particularly when it comes to abstract topics such as chemical bonding. This study aims to determine the effect of implementing a Discovery Learning model – based on e-modiles and supported by Google Classroom – on the critical thinking skills of 11th-grade students in the subject of chemical bonding. This quantitative study employed a quasi-experimental method using a Nonequivalent Control Group Design at SMA Negeri 1 Pematangsiantar. The sample was selected using puposive sampling, with Class XI-4 serving as the experimental class and Class XI-5 as the control class, each consisting of 36 students. Data were collected through pretests and posttests in the form of multiple-choice questions developed based on Ennis’s critical thinking indicators. The instrument was found to be highly reliabele (Cronbach’s Alpha 0,934), and the data were normally distributed and homogeneous (Sig. 0,834). The t-test result showed that the calculated t-value (4,115) was greater than the critical t-value (1,994), indicating a an avarage of 0,5080 (50,80%), classified as moderate. Thus, the Discovery Learning model based on e-modules supported by Google Classroom can serve as an alternative learning approach to enchance students’ critical thinking skills in the subject of chemical bonding.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of implementing a poster-based problem based learning (PBL) model on student learning outcomes in the topic of atomic structure among X student at Pematangsiantar state high school 4. The study employed a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group. The research subjects consisted of two classes: an experimental class that received instruction using the poster-based PBL model and a control class that received conventional instruction. The research instrument consisted of learning outcome tests administered before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using nonparametric tests and N-Gain calculations. The results showed that the average pretest scores for both classes were relatively similar. After instruction, the average posttest score for the experimental class increased to a higher level than that of the control class. The N-Gain test yielded an N-Gain score of 0.64 > 0.30, falling into the “moderate” category, and an N-Gain percentage of 64% > 56%, falling into the “fairly effective” category. Thus, it can be concluded that the poster-based PBL learning model has a positive effect on students’ learning outcomes regarding atomic structure material in X grade high school.
