The Effect of Cooperative Learning Model Type Group Investigation Assisted Flash Media, Scientific Attitude on Students’ Conceptual Knowledge

摘要

This research aimed to find out whether the conceptual knowledge of students on cooperative learning model type Group Investigation assisted flash media better than conventional learning; to find out whether the conceptual knowledge of students who have above average scientific attitudes is better than students who have below average scientific attitudes; to find out whether there was an interaction between cooperative learning model type Group Investigation with students' scientific attitude in improving students' conceptual knowledge. This research was quasi experiment research. The population was all students of class XI-IPA SMA Negeri 1 Hamparan Perak Academic Year 2016/2017. The sample selection was done by using random class technique of two classes. The first class was the class XI-IPA 1 as an experimental class taught with cooperative learning model type Group Investigation assisted flash media and the second class was class XI-IPA 2 taught by conventional learning. The instruments consisted of a conceptualized science test and a validated scientific attitude questionnaire. The data in this research were analyzed by using two-way ANOVA. The results showed that the conceptual knowledge of students who were taught using cooperative learning model type Group Investigation assisted flash media better than conventional learning. The students' conceptual knowledge with above average scientific attitudes shows better results than students with below average scientific attitudes. There was an interaction between cooperative learning model type Group Investigation assisted flash media and scientific attitude on students’ conceptual knowledge. This interaction showed the dominant students’ conceptual knowledge on cooperative learning model type Group Investigation assisted flash media in group of students who have above average scientific attitude.
