Comparison of Mastery Learning and Traditional Lecture–Exam Models in a Large Enrollment Physics Course

This study examined the impact of cooperative learning activities on student achievement and attitudes in large-enrollment (>250) introductory biology classes. We found that students taught using a cooperative learning approach showed greater improvement in their knowledge of course material compared with students taught using a traditional lecture format. In addition, students viewed cooperative learning activities highly favorably. These findings suggest that encouraging students to work in small groups and improving feedback between the instructor and the students can help to improve student outcomes even in very large classes. These results should be viewed cautiously, however, until this experiment can be replicated with additional faculty. Strategies for potentially improving the impact of cooperative learning on student achievement in large courses are discussed.

Improve Student Learning

Abstract In recent years, colleges and universities across the country have been called upon to increase the quality of education provided and to improve student retention rates. In response to this challenge, many faculty are exploring alternatives to the traditional “lecture-centered” approach of higher education in an attempt to increase student learning and satisfaction. Collaborative learning is one method of teaching, which has been demonstrated to improve student learning outcomes.

The background of this study is the lack of IPS students' learning outcomes, from 22 students only 36.36% or 8 students who managed to achieve a minimum completeness criteria (KKM) established school with a class average value of 61.75. Based on this the researchers conducted a classroom action research with the aim to improve learning outcomes IPS students through the application of methods of discussion. This research is a class act, who performed a total of two cycles consisting of two meetings, the data of this study focuses on the data increase learning outcomes and increase student mastery learning outcomes IPS. The study states that the results of social studies students has increased in each cycle, the initial data is the number of students who completed 8 students (36.36%) with an average of learning outcomes at 61.75. In the first cycle has increased the number of students who completed up to 16 students (72.73%) with an average of learning outcomes at 73.90, and the second cycle the number of students who pass the increase to 22 students (100.00%) with a mean -rata learning outcomes at 87.75. Based on these results it can be concluded that the application of the method of discussion to improve learning outcomes IPS students of class V A SD Negeri 004 Tembilahan Kecamatan Tembilahan.

Problems in the Classroom Action Research (PTK) is the low learning outcomes IPA A fourth grade students of SDN 015 Sungai Salak Kecamatan Tempuling. This study addressed the problem by applying direct instrucsion models. The problem of this research is "Is the direct application of the model intruction IPA can improve learning outcomes in grade IV A SDN 015 Sungai Salak Kecamatan Tempuling ?. The purpose of this study is to improve science learning outcomes in class IV A SDN 015 Sungai Salak Kecamatan Tempuling by way of direct intruction models. Direct intruction A model of fourth grade students of SDN 015 Sungai Salak, Kecamatan Tempuling can improve learning outcomes significantly. At first the student learning outcomes pre-cyclye is 36.00 categorized as very unfavorable; in the first cycle was 61.00 with category; and the results of the second cycle is 81.50 with very good category. Mastery learning individually and classical increases; pre-cyclye 4 students and 20.00 (not finished); in the first cycle is 12 students and 60.00% (not finished) and the second cycle is 19 students or 95% (complete). Based on observations of fourth grade students of SDN 015 A Sungai Salak Kecamatan Tempuling, activity in the first cycle an average of 72% or better and the second cycle of activity is 82% or better at all. Students seem to understand the direct intruction models and they can understand the subject matter properly and appropriately. Based on the research results with direct instructional improvement intruction models managed to fix the problem of low student learning outcomes SDN 015 class IV A Sungai Salak Kecamatan of Tempuling.
