Based on the analysis and discussion that has been carried out, it can be concluded that there is a significant difference in understanding of concepts between the experimental class and the control class. This is strengthened by the results of the independent sample t-test analysis, namely between the experimental class and the control class obtaining a significance of 0.001 below 0.005, in other words, learning using demonstration and discussion methods affects the understanding of student concepts.
