The purpose of this study was to improve social studies activities and learning outcomes on population dynamics material through the application of a cooperative script model for class VIII A MTsN 3 West Aceh students. The model used in this study is a cooperative script model. The number of students was 40 students including 22 male students and 18 female students. This research was conducted in a period of 3 months. The method used was classroom action research which consisted of two cycles and each cycle consisted of two meetings.
