This study aims to determine the effect of IPAS learning outcomes among third-grade elementary school students taught using the Inside-Outside Circle learning model compared to those taught using conventional instruction. The study employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental design of the Nonequivalent Control Group type. The sample consisted of an experimental class (IIIA) and a control class (IIIB), each with 32 students. Data were collected using pretest and posttest questions that had been validated for both validity and reliability. Data analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney U test—a nonparametric test—with the assistance of SPSS 26. The results showed a score of 39.55 for the experimental class and 25.45 for the control class. These results also yielded an Asymp. Sig. (2-tailed) value < 0.05, indicating that H0 was rejected and H1 was accepted. An increase in the N-Gain score can be observed; based on the N-Gain test, the results were 0.522 for the experimental class and 0.336 for the control class. From these two results, it can be concluded that while the improvement in learning outcomes in both the experimental and control classes falls into the moderate category, the results obtained in the experimental class show a higher level of improvement.
