Abstract

Social Studies learning plays an important role in developing students’ understanding of social phenomena; however, learning outcomes remain suboptimal due to the use of less varied instructional methods. This study aims to determine the effect of the blended learning model on students’ Social Studies learning outcomes in grade VIII at SMP Negeri 7 Blora. This research employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental design with a nonequivalent control group design, involving an experimental class and a control class. Data were collected through tests (pretest and posttest), observation, and documentation, and analyzed using normality test, homogeneity test, independent sample t-test, and gain score with the assistance of jamovi software. The results showed that: (1) there was a significant difference in learning outcomes between the experimental and control groups; (2) the experimental group achieved a higher mean posttest score than the control group; (3) the gain score of the experimental group was in the moderate category, while the control group was in the low category. Therefore, it can be concluded that the blended learning model is effective in improving students’ Social Studies learning outcomes.
