Upaya Peningkatan Aktivitas Belajar Siswa Melalui Penerapan Model Discovery Learning pada Program Penugasan Dosen di Sekolah (PDS) di SMA Pembangunan UNP

Abstract

The problem of physics learning at the UNP Laboratory Development High School is that it has not actively involved students in learning. The implementation of learning is still teacher centered in that it is still dominated by teacher activities in presenting learning material. The nature of science learning requires the existence of student activities in finding concepts and principles of science / physics. This study aims to see an increase in student learning activities in the effort to discover the concepts and principles of physics after the application of discovery learning models. The research method used is classroom action research with 3 cycles to see an increase in student learning activities. Each cycle consists of 4 stages: planning, action, observation and reflection. The instrument used was activity questionnaire and learning outcome test. The instrument is also equipped with reflection journals from program of Lecturer Assignment at School (LAS). Activity data were analyzed by percentage techniques, and reflection journals were analyzed qualitatively. The results of the study showed that learning activities in each cycle increased. Likewise, student learning outcomes that are given each cycle also increase. It can be concluded that through the LAS program, student learning activities in the discovery of physical concepts and principles can be improved for the better. The LAS program provides experience for teachers and lecturers in understanding the problems in learning and providing the best solutions.
