Abstract

The quality of learning is something that needs to be improved continuously. The implementation and achievement of an optimal learning process is use to gain the achievement of the expected learning objectives so learning activities can run effectively. With the application of the group investigation learning model, it is expected to be able to improve the quality of learning in the classroom since the group investigation method. By using this model, students are able to express themselves, improve critical thinking and other abilities that can support group learning or discussion. The main objective of this research was to improve the quality of learning through the application of the group investigation model to students. The research method used was classroom action research with two cycles of action. Furthermore, comparative data analysis was also used to compare learning in each cycle. The result of this research was an improvement in the learning process carried out by students from cycle I to cycle II, especially in the aspects of the research objectives. There was an increase in the first cycle, the average value was 68.22% and the average value in the second cycle was 83.33% with the correlation level from the first cycle and the second cycle was 0.619 or 61.9%. And the level of significance known from the data Sig.(2-tailed) was 0.000 <0.05 showed there was a difference from cycle I to cycle II in improving the quality of learning by applying the group investigation model.

Abstract

One indicator of learning is said to be of quality like the existence of an effective combination of learning media and the methods used in learning. In this case, one of the learning media studied is textbooks combined with self-directed learning based learning methods. Where in the research conducted it is hoped that it will be able to make the quality of learning increase, especially in bank and financial institution courses. The method used in research is research and development (RnD). The stages of textbook development are: preliminary research, problem identification, data collection and textbook preparation, validation by experts, revisions, small-scale trials, follow-up revisions, extensive trials, final revisions, and final textbooks. The results obtained are 1) textbooks are suitable for use in learning from the results of expert validation with a minimum score of 75% to 90%; 2) an increase in student collaboration skills from a score of 77 to 82 and increased to 89; 3) an increase in student activity from a score of 79 to 83 and increased to 93; 4) the learning outcomes of students who scored > 85 also increased from 5 students to 12 students, and increased again to 17 students. Meanwhile, the results of the comparative test with SPSS showed that the Sig.(2-tailed) student collaboration ability was 0.000 <0.05; student activity score Sig.(2-tailed) of 0.000 <0.05; and student learning outcomes with a Sig.(2-tailed) score of 0.000 <0.05, thus indicating a significant difference both before and after the use of textbooks for banks and financial institutions based on self-directed learning.
