Abstract

This research is motivated by the low learning outcomes of Indonesian language of grade IV students of UPT SD Negeri 060822 Medan City on the material "My Surrounding Environment". The learning method that is still dominated by lectures causes students to be less active and unmotivated in the learning process. Therefore, this study aims to implement the Picture and Picture learning model to improve student learning outcomes. This study uses the Classroom Action Research (CAR) method with a repeated cycle design, consisting of planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. The subjects of the study were 20 fourth-grade students of UPT SD Negeri 060822 Medan City in the 2025-2026 academic year. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, tests, and interviews, while data analysis used quantitative and qualitative approaches. The results of the study showed an increase in student learning outcomes. At the pretest stage (initial conditions), the average student score was 66.5 with a completion rate of 20%. After the application of the Picture and Picture model in cycle I, the average score increased to 74.5 with a completion percentage of 60%. In cycle II, the average score increased again to 87 with a completion percentage reaching 95%. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the application of the Picture and Picture model is effective in improving the Indonesian language learning outcomes of fourth-grade students. This model not only helps students' understanding through image media, but also encourages them to be more active in the learning process. Therefore, the Picture and Picture model is recommended to be applied in Indonesian language learning to improve student learning outcomes

Abstract

This research is motivated by the low learning outcomes of students' procedural texts in the Indonesian Language subject in grade V UPT SD Negeri 060874 Medan City. The learning process is still less active, which causes students to be less enthusiastic in learning. Many students tend to chat or play during lessons, so that the material is not conveyed optimally. This condition has an impact on low student grades in the Indonesian Language subject, especially in understanding and writing procedural texts. Therefore, this study aims to determine whether the application of the Problem Solving method can improve student learning outcomes in learning procedural texts. This study uses a Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach which is carried out in two cycles. Each cycle consists of planning, implementation, observation, and reflection stages. The subjects in this study were fifth grade students of UPT SD Negeri 060874 Medan City in the 2025-2026 Academic Year. Data were collected through observation of student activities during learning and learning outcome tests in each cycle to determine the improvements that occurred. The results showed that the application of the Problem Solving method can significantly improve student learning outcomes. In cycle I, the percentage of student learning completion reached 70%, while in cycle II it increased to 95%. Thus, there was an increase of 25% after the application of the Problem Solving method. This increase is also supported by changes in student behavior who are more active in learning, more focused on the material, and able to solve problems given in learning procedural texts. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that the Problem Solving method is an effective learning strategy in improving student learning outcomes. Therefore, this method is recommended to be used in Indonesian language learning to increase student engagement and better learning outcomes
