This research aims to determine: 1) Improvement in learning outcomes of class VIII students at SMPN 19 Makassar after being taught using the 7E learning cycle learning model, 2) Scores in the effect size category of using the 7E learning cycle learning model on improving learning outcomes for class VIII students at SMPN 19 Makassar , 3) Is there a significant difference in the learning outcomes of class VIII students at SMPN 19 Makassar before and after being taught using the 7E learning cycle learning model, 4) Is there no significant difference in the average score of improvement between class VIII I and class VIII K of SMPN 19 Makassar after being taught using the 7E learning cycle learning model. This type of research is Pre-Experimental Design research with a research design using One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The population of all class VIII students at SMPN 19 Makassar consisting of 11 classes with a total of 348 people, the sample was selected using purposive sampling, with 2 classes, namely class VIII I totaling 31 people as the experimental class and class VIII K totaling 30 people as the replication class.
