Abstract

This study aims to determine the influence of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model on students' learning outcomes in the Social Studies (IPS) subject for Grade VIII at SMP Negeri 3 Pematangsiantar. The background of this research is based on the low learning outcomes of students, which are caused by the lack of active student involvement during the learning process. The PBL model was chosen because it emphasizes student involvement in solving real problems, which is expected to improve both understanding and learning outcomes. This research employs a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental method. The research design used is the Nonequivalent Control Group Design involving two classes, namely class VIII-1 as the experimental group that applied the PBL model, and class VIII-2 as the control group that received conventional learning. Data collection techniques were carried out through pre-test and post-test. Instrument testing included validity, reliability, normality, homogeneity tests, and hypothesis testing using the Independent Samples t-Test with the assistance of SPSS version 26. The results of the study show that there is a significant difference in learning outcomes between students who were taught using the PBL model and those who were taught using conventional methods. The significance value in the t-test was 0.001 < 0.05, with the average N-Gain score of the experimental class being 44.67% and the control class being 31.24%. This indicates that the application of the PBL model has a significant effect on improving student learning outcomes.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the influence of the Jigsaw Type Cooperative Learning Model on student learning outcomes in Social Studies (IPS) for eighth-grade students at UPTD SMP Negeri 12 Pematangsiantar in the 2024/2025 academic year. The research employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental method with a Pretest-Posttest Control Group Design. The sample was selected through purposive sampling: class VIII-4 as the experimental group using the Jigsaw Type Cooperative Learning Model, and class VIII-3 as the control group using the conventional (lecture) method, with 32 students in each class. The research instrument consisted of a multiple-choice test with 25 items, which had been tested for validity, reliability, difficulty level, and discriminating power. The validity test showed that all items were valid (r count > r table = 0.349), with the highest validity coefficient being 0.8019 and the lowest 0.3665. The instrument's reliability was 0.807 > 0.396, indicating that the test was reliable. The normality test indicated that both classes had normally distributed data (X² count < X² table), and the homogeneity test indicated that both groups were homogeneous (F count = 1.025 < F table = 1.804). The results showed that the experimental class had an average score of 80 with a standard deviation of 10.36, while the control class had an average score of 74.25 with a standard deviation of 10.10. The t-test revealed t count = 2.21 > t table = 1.67, indicating a significant difference in learning outcomes between the two classes. Therefore, it can be concluded that the Jigsaw Type Cooperative Learning Model has a significant influence on student learning outcomes in Social Studies and is more effective than the conventional method.
