The history of secondary education in Spain has many points in common with developments in other European countries, although with differences in time and rhythms. The author highlights the most important reforms of secondary education in contemporary Spain and argues that the understanding of reform does not necesssarily imply innovation or an improvement of teaching and learning. The author makes the case that the proposed changes in secondary education were not effective because they were framed by the Napoleonic model that characterized the entire school system. Furthermore, in most cases the new plans give priority to instruction over education which resulted in a poor formation of young people.

The problem revealed in this study is how effective the Sort Card learning model is on social studies learning towards the learning outcomes of third grade students of Karangroto 04 State Elementary School in Semarang City. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the Sort Card learning model on social studies learning on the learning outcomes of third grade students of Karangroto 04 Public Elementary School in Semarang City. This type of research is quantitative. The population in this study were class III students totaling 30 students and the design used for this study using One-Group Pretest-posttest Design. Data collection methods used are observation, tests, interviews, and documentation. The results of the study revealed the average value of pretest students 43,74 and the average posttest score of students was 88.86. From the calculation using the t-test, it is obtained t_count = 16.034 and ttable = 2.045 with db = 30-1 at the significant level α = 5%, so that t_count > t table is 16,034 > 2,045. So Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. It can be concluded that the sort card model is effective against student learning outcomes. Based on the results of this study the suggestions that can be conveyed are expected teachers can use the sort card learning model in teaching and learning activities, especially social studies subjects

ABSTRACTThis research is development with the aim of (1) developing social studies textbook VSD CTL-ariented appoarch in order to improve student learning outcomes,(2) determine the fasibility of fifth grade social studies textbook oriented appoarch to CTL, (3) determine student’s mastery of learning outcomes by using social studies textbook oriented approach CTL. Based on the descriptive analysis shows that the process of textbook development has been carried out according to the stages proposed thiagarajan and has been modified so that the researcher ends at the development stage. Textbooks have also developed good quality feasibility for use. The effectiveness of textbook tested with inferential statistics using SPSS 17.0 is throught the F test and t test. F numbers which assume the same for both varians with   probability 0,224   (sig)   0,623 > 5% means that there is no difference between the experimental and control variants. Figures t-test assuming equal variance both populations is -5,782 with probability (sig) of 0.000. therefore, the number probability <0.05, means there is a difference between  the value of the posttest experimental class and control class posttest values, so it can be concluded that the learning outcomes of students by using teaching buju better developed than on the learning outcomes of students who only use regular textbooks. The conclusions derived from the research that has been done stating that the textbook has been developed, meets the eligibility criteria to be used in learning and more active student activity using textbooks, because the more euthusiastic students to understand the materials so that there are differences in the value of students learningoutcomes significantly between Va classes that do not use textbooks and the value of student learning outcomes using Vb class textbook. values class Vb student learning outcomes using textbooks development obtaining learning outcomes Keywords:Textbook, Social Studies,CTL Resulf of Learning. ABSTRAK                                                                                          Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian pengembangan dengan tujuan (1) mengembangkan Bahan Ajar PKN kelas V yang berorentasi pada pendekatan CTL untuk meningkatkan hasil belajar siswa; (2) mengetahui tingkat kelayakan Bahan Ajar PKN kelas V yang berorentasi pada pendekatan CTL;(3) mengetahui ketuntasan hasil belajar siswa dengan menggunakan bahan ajar PKN yang berorentasi pada pendekatan CTL. Berdasarkan analisis deskriptif diperoleh bahwa proses pengembangan Bahan Ajar telah dilakukan sesuai tahapan yang dikemukakan Thiagarajan dan telah dimodifikasi peneliti sehingga berakhir pada tahap pengembangan. Bahan Ajar yang dikembangkan juga memiliki kualitas kelayakan baik untuk digunakan. Keefektifan Bahan Ajar diuji dengan statistic inferensial menggunakan SPSS 17.0 yaitu melalui uji F dan uji t. angka F yang mengansumsikan kedua varian sama sebesar 0,224 dengan probabilitas (sig) sebesar 0,623 > 5% berarti tidak ada perbedaan varian antara eksperimen dan control. ANgka t-test yang mengansumsikan varian kedua populasi sama adalah -5,782 dengan probabilitas (sig) sebesar 0,000. Oleh karena angka probabilitas <0,05, dapat diartikan ada perbedaan nilai posttest antara kelas eksperimen dan nilai nilai posttest kelas control, sehingga dapat disimpulkan bahwa hasil belajar siswa dengan menggunakan Bahan Ajar yang dikembangkan lebih baik dari hasil belajar siswa yang hanya menggunakan bahan ajar biasa. Simpulan yang diperoleh dari penelitian yang telah dilakukan menyatakan bahwa bahan ajar yang telah dikembangkan, memenuhi kriteria kelayakan untuk digunakan dalam pembelajaran, karena siswa lebih antusias untuk memahami materi sehingga ada perbedaan nilai hasil belajar siswa yang signifikan antara kelas Va yang tidak menggunakan bahan ajar dan nilai belajar siswa kelas Vb dengan menggunakan bahan ajar. Nilai hasil belajar siswa kelas Vb dengan menggunakan bahan ajar yang dikembangkan memperoleh hasil belajar. Kata kunci: Bahan Ajar, PKN, Contextual Teaching and Learning, Hasil Belajar.

The study analyzed the effectiveness of Contextualized Differentiated Instruction (CDI) in the teaching of Contemporary Issues, a Social Studies subject in Grade 10 with these of objectives by: (1) Determining its pre-post-test results; (2) Testing its significant mean difference; (3) Analyzing its learning competencies and identifying appropriate strategies; and (4) Formulating an enhanced CDI Model of Contextualized Teaching and Learning (CTL). A one group quasi-experimental design, using pretest-and-posttest, determined the respondents’ performance on Contemporary Issues. A significant difference in the pre-posttest demonstrated an increase of proficiency manifested by an increase in the mean scores and enhanced qualitative equivalents. An above proficiency level revealed in the posttest was attributed by the engagement of the respondents in the learning process using contextual differentiated learning activities. Matching the learning competencies with the three learning domains of Gardner’s multiple intelligences resulted in a substantial utilization of the interactive and prospective teaching strategies, except on the analytic teaching strategies that were found inadequate. Hence, the creation of the COVID-19 Model may juxtapose the essence of an enhanced CDI Model of CTL. The findings have social and practical value to support differentiation of instruction in the 21st century education.
