THE EFFECT OF PROBLEM BASED LEARNING MODEL ON STUDENT’S LEARNG OUTCOMES IN STATIC FLUID TOPIC OF CLASS X SMA NEGERI 3 MEDAN ACADEMIC YEAR 2013/2014

Abstract

The aim of this research is to knowthe effect of the problem based learning model on student’s learning outcomes in static fluids topic.The research method is quasi experiment. The populations are all of students in class X MIA semester II SMA N. 3 Medan, that consist of 14 classes. The sample of this research was taken by cluster random sampling technique, class X MIA-4was experimental class used problem based learning model that consist of 38 students, and class X MIA-5 as control class used conventional learning, consist 40 students. Instruments that used in this research were multiple choose test instrument and psychomotor and affective observation sheet. The data obtained from the test was analyzed by statistical analysis t-test. Based on observation result by using affective and psychomotor observation sheet of studentsshown that there was significant increasing on experimentalclass.So,it can be concluded that the student’slearning outcomes using problem based learning model greater than conventional learning of static fluid topic of class X SMA N.3 Medan academic year 2013/2014.
