<![CDATA[ This research was conducted to determine the effectiveness of implementing the Cooperative Learning model Type Teams Games Tournament in improving the learning outcomes of eighth-grade students at SMP Negeri 3 Malang in Social Studies subjects. This study was motivated by the low learning outcomes and lack of active student engagement in the Social Studies learning process. This model is a strategy that can be used to enhance student participation in the classroom through educational games and intergroup competition activities. This research uses a Classroom Action Research (PTK) approach carried out in two cycles, each consisting of the planning, implementation, observation, and reflection stages. The research subjects were 32 eighth-grade students. The research instruments used were learning outcome tests, observation sheets, questionnaires, and documentation. The results showed that the implementation of the Teams Games Tournament model was able to improve student learning outcomes. The class average score increased from 75.48 (classical mastery 48.39%) to 84.69 in cycle I, and also increased to 91.25 in cycle II with a classical mastery level of 100%. Students’ affective attitudes also increased to the good category with responsibility and teamwork indicators being the most prominent. Student responses through the questionnaire reinforced that the Teams Games Tournament model made learning more enjoyable and active. Thus, the cooperative learning model Type Teams Games Tournament has been proven effective in improving both cognitive and affective learning outcomes in Social Studies, and based on these results, Social Studies teachers are advised to consider the Teams Games Tournament learning model as an alternative in designing interactive lesson plans.]]>
