The instrument used in this study is a subjective rating scale with an assessment rubric of a scale of 1 – 8 including indicators of student responses about the material given by the teacher, student responses about prior knowledge, student responses about information components, and student responses in integrating information. The results show that learning using chunking techniques can help students process information better than conventional learning. The experimental group had a lower intrinsic cognitive load than the control group, so that the chunking technique can control students' intrinsic cognitive load.]]>
