To cope with such, the researcher utilized the mind-mapping model to develop the teaching practice so that, in turn, the students would be better at doing the class activities. The research was conducted in State Senior High School 1 of Gisting district. The research itself was a classroom action research consisting of two cycles. The result of the research shows that the use of Mind-mapping model has helped the students of the school increase their grades as well as their involvement in the classroom activities.Keywords : social science learning, classroom activities, grades, mind-mapping model]]>
