Abstract

Self-efficacy is a crucial psychological construct in education that significantly impacts students' confidence, motivation, and engagement in learning.  However, observations in MAN 2 Kota Probolinggo revealed low self-efficacy among students during biology lessons, largely due to teacher-centered models that failed to foster active participation and confidence. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of the Make a Match learning model assisted by picture card media in improving students' self-efficacy in learning the human respiratory system. A quasi-experimental design was employed, involving an experimental group taught with the intervention and a control group taught using conventional models. Pretest and posttest data were analyzed using statistical tests to determine the significance of the intervention's impact. The findings indicated that the experimental group showed a significant improvement in self-efficacy, with a mean posttest score of 102.44 compared to 90.67 in the control group (t = -7.897, p < .000). The Make a Match model combined with picture card media effectively fostered mastery experiences, vicarious learning, and social persuasion, aligning with Bandura’s Social Learning Theory. This research highlights the importance of interactive and visually engaging teaching strategies in building students' confidence and participation, particularly in challenging biology topics like the human respiratory system.
