THE DIFFERENCE OF STUDENT’S PHYSICS LEARNING OUTCOMES USING COOPERATIVE LEARNING MODEL TYPE NUMBERED HEAD TOGETHER WITH DIRECT INSTRUCTION IN GRADE X SMA NEGERI 1 BERASTAGI

Abstract

ABSTRACT

The purpose of this research was to find out the difference of student’s physics learning outcomes using cooperative learning type numbered heads together model with direct instruction model in topic  dynamic electric at grade X SMA N 1 Berastagi Academic Year 2012/2013. Method of this research is by using quasi experiments with one group post-test, pre-test design. Population in this research were all students in grade X amount  224 students consist of 7 classes. Sampling technique was random sampling. The sample in this research are students of grade X SMA N 1 Berastagi academic year 2012/2013 consists of two class, X₄ as experiment class using Numbered Head Together and X₅ as control class using direct instruction model. There were three instrument for research, such as multiptle choice test as cognitive instrument, affective assessment instrument, and psychomotoric assessment instrument. Learning outcomes of students is from affective, psychomotoric, and cognitive value. Affective and psychomotoric of experiment class was enough category, while affective and psychomotoric in control class was bad category. The cognitive show by post test, mean value of experimental class was good category, and mean value of control class was enough category.  The result of t test was  pre-test get value t_count is 0.68 means there was no difference of student’s physics learning outcomes between control and experiment class. For the post test H₀ was refused because t_count is 4.43 means there was a difference of student’s physics learning outcomes between control and experiment class . So can be concluded that there was the difference of student’s physics learning outcomes using cooperative learning type numbered heads together and direct instruction model in topic  dynamic electricity at grade X SMA N 1 Berastagi Academic Year 2012/2013.
