The process of learning and understanding of science has relevance to the level of metacognitive awareness. The purpose of this study was to find out whether the use of learning journals have an effect on students' metacognitive awareness. This study was quasi-experimental research with non-equivalent pretest-posttest control group design. The subjects of this study were second semester of VII grade students of State Junior High School 5 of Sukabumi in 2017-2018 academic year. Metacoginitive awareness was measured by using Metacognitive Awareness Inventory (MAI). The data obtained from pretest and posttest were calculated into N-gain score. These data were analyzed by using independent t-test. The results showed that N-gain score for metacognitive awareness in experimental and control class were 0.70 and 0.22 in sequence. Meanwhile, the t-test results indicated that there was a significant difference between learning by using learning journals and without using learning journal in increasing students' metacognitive awareness. It showed that students metacognitive awareness in the experimental class were better than the control class. It can be suggested that implementing learning journal is potential media in improving students’ metacognitive awareness.

This study aims to examine the effect of mind mapping learning methods on social studies materials comprehension of students at Baleendah 2nd Junior High School. This study used a quasi-experimental method with the design of "nonequivalent control group design" with the pattern of "pretest" and "posttest" and carried out treatments in class VIII-F as the experimental class group and VIII-H as the control group used as a comparison. Sampling uses a purposive sampling technique. Data collection on the social studies material comprehension of students use questions as the main data. After the data is collected, the analysis is carried out quantitatively through hypothesis testing or T-Test. The results of the difference between "pretest" and "posttest" in the experimental class given treatment showed a significant difference in improvement, while the control class between "pretest" and "posttest" which were not given treatment the results were no difference or no improvement. It can be said that there are influences from mind mapping learning methods to on social studies materials comprehension of students.Keywords: comprehension of material, Mind Mapping Learning Method, Social Studies Learning

<span>The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of the <em>sorogan </em>method in history learning to improve students' historical understanding and historical awareness. The research method used a quasi-experimental nonequivalent control group design, and the sampling technique used a cluster sampling with a sample size of 96 students. Collecting data through observation, interviews, and tests of historical understanding and awareness. Meanwhile, data analysis to determine the effect and differences of the <em>sorogan</em> method to increase understanding and historical awareness using the independent sample t-test and N-gain score test. The results showed that there were a significant influence and difference between the two groups, namely the experimental and control classes based on the results of the independent sample t-test, the hypothesis H0 was rejected with a significance value of 0.000&lt;0.05, further strengthened by the results of the N-gain score test which was included in the criteria low and medium. This means that there is an influence and increase from the implementation of the <em>sorogan</em> method on historical understanding and awareness and getting a positive response from teachers and students, because the <em>sorogan</em> method is student-centered, and the teacher acts as tutorship/mentorship.</span>

Writing process involves thinking and creative skills. To stimulate the students’ thoughts to express their ideas, clustering technique is effective brainstorming activity to help the students explore their ideas and write consistently. Thus, the objective of this study is to find out whether or not there is any significant difference between the students who were taught in writing descriptive paragraph through Clustering Technique and those who were not. The population of this study was all of the eighth grade students of SMP Srijaya Negara Palembang in academic year 2016/2017. There were three classes that consist of 113 students. The samples of this study were VIII C as a control group and VIII B as an experimental group. This study was conducted by using quasi experimental method with nonequivalent control group design. Then, the data were analyzed by using paired sample t-test and independent sample t-test. The result of independent sample t-test shows that the value of sig. (2-tailed) was 0.00 < 0.05 in the level of significant 0.05. While, the value of t-obtained was 5.213 higher than the critical value of t-table was 1.665 with degree of freedom 76. It can be concluded that the null hypothesis was rejected and the alternative hypothesis was accepted. It means that there was any significant difference between the students who were taught in writing descriptive paragraph through Clustering Technique and those who were not.

This research aimed to find out the effectiveness of audio-visual media (picture, video, audio) on culinary students’ learning outcomes in Chicken Carcass material. The researcher implemented a quasi-experimental method with a nonequivalent control group design. The subjects of this study were the 10th-grade students of SMK Negeri 8 Medan in the Academic Year of 2016/2017. Cluster random sampling was applied in this study, which consisted of one experimental class and one control class. Meanwhile, some hypothetical tests used in this study were n-gain, independent t-test, and dependent t-test. The n-gain score of learning outcomes in the experimental class is higher than the control class, which is 0.5 and categorized as moderate. Students’ learning outcomes between those who were taught using audio-visual media and without audio-visual media in Chicken Carcass material indicated a significant difference with a significance score of 0.000 ≤ 0.05. The audio-visual media effectively improve the learning outcomes of the 10th-grade students of the culinary department in Chicken Carcass material.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of module-based online learning with an ethnochemical approach in improving students' scientific literacy skills. This research is a quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest nonequivalent control group design. The study population was students of the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Samudra University who were taking basic chemistry courses. The results showed an increase in science literacy skills based on the N-gain value in the experimental class of 0.54 in the medium category and 0.33 in the control class who were also in the medium category. Analysis with t test based on the posttest value obtained sig. (2-tailed) 0.030 or <0.05, which indicates a significant difference in the posttest scores of the two classes. Based on these two Kés, it can be concluded that module-based online learning with an ethnochemical approach is effective for improving students' scientific literacy skills. The results showed an increase in science literacy skills based on the N-gain value in the experimental class of 0.54 in the medium category and 0.33 in the control class who were also in the medium category.

The data analysis used is the independent sample t-test value of the gain score with the help of the SPSS 16.0 for Windows application. The results showed that there were significant differences in geographic learning outcomes between the experimental class and the control class. The value of geography learning outcomes of students taught with group investigation models is better than the geography learning outcomes of students who are taught using conventional methods (discussion). This is because students who conduct investigations can understand geography learning material on the topic of coastal abrasion better than students who study conventionally.</p><p><strong>Abstrak:<em> </em></strong>Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbedaan hasil belajar geografi siswa yang diajar dengan model <em>group investigation</em> dan yang diajar dengan metode konvensional (diskusi).
