Abstract

This study aims to examine the effect of metacognitive approaches on the science learning outcomes of students at SD Inpres 16, Sorong Regency. A quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group configuration was employed. The study population comprised all students enrolled during the even semester of the 2022/2023 academic year. The research sample consisted of 14 students from Class IVA as the experimental group and 14 students from Class IVB as the control group, selected using purposive sampling. The experimental group received instruction incorporating metacognitive learning strategies, while the control group received conventional instruction. Results indicated that all 14 students in the experimental class attained scores above the minimum mastery criterion (KKM > 70), with a mean posttest score of 88.15, compared to 80.86 for the control class. The difference in mean scores between the two classes was 7.9 points. Statistical analysis yielded a t-calculated value of 4.445, which exceeded the t-table value of 0.532, confirming a significant difference in learning outcomes between the two groups. These findings demonstrate that metacognitive learning approaches significantly improve science learning outcomes in elementary school students. Integrating metacognitive strategies into classroom instruction is therefore recommended as an effective pedagogical practice for elementary science education.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of the Predict-Observe-Explain (POE) learning model on the IPAS (Natural and Social Sciences) learning outcomes of Grade V students at SD Negeri 2 Sorong City. A quantitative pre-experimental approach was employed using a One-Group Pretest-Posttest Design, involving 25 Grade V students selected through a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected using a structured observation sheet and a 20-item performance test administered as both pretest and posttest. Instrument reliability was confirmed using Cronbach’s alpha, yielding coefficients of 0.603 (pretest) and 0.882 (posttest), both exceeding the minimum threshold of 0.60. The Shapiro-Wilk normality test confirmed that both pretest (sig. = 0.059 > 0.05) and posttest (sig. = 0.706 > 0.05) data were normally distributed. The paired-samples t-test yielded a calculated t-value of 12.850, which exceeds the critical t-value of 2.025 (df = 24, sig. = 0.001 < 0.05). The pretest mean score was 45.55, which increased to 80.00 following the POE intervention. These results confirm that the POE learning model has a statistically significant positive effect on IPAS learning outcomes, demonstrating its effectiveness as an innovative instructional approach for Grade V elementary school students.
