In the summer of 2019, a cooperative team of Biology faculty and a principal investigator worked to develop a solid set of aligned student learning outcomes across the sections of first semester (BIOL 1305) and second semester (BIOL 1306) of introductory Biology.  Additionally, the group worked on course objectives alignment within the scope and sequence of the courses, as well as aligned syllabi. A full course redesign was initiated over the summer, where the goal was to align student learning outcomes (SLOs), assessments, and develop a shared set of syllabi for six sections across two courses of introductory biology.  At UTEP, the overall goal was to integrate adaptive courseware technology tools, open education resources (OER) and active learning strategies within a course redesign in our Learning Management System (LMS), Blackboard, for a number of sections in Biology 1305 and Biology 1306 beginning in the spring of 2020. This is challenging, as much of adaptive courseware technology is not as strong in content as the Biology faculty would like for these classes, although it can help to substantially reduce the costs for students.  The information that follows defines the case study for integrating adaptive courseware within the course redesign process for a series of high enrollment introductory Biology courses

This study aims to determine the improvement of student learning outcomes in Analyzing Circuits (MRL) subjects in class X TDTL SMK N 1 Padang, by using the active learning strategies type of Everyone is a Teacher Here. This type of research was quasi-experimental. The subjects of the research was class X TDTL with 32 students. The object of the research was active learning strategies type of Everyone Is a Teacher Here. The instrument used was the achievement test by using multiple-choice questions that had been tested for validity and reliability. From the results of the research, data showed the average value of student learning outcomes in the average pretest was 57. While at posttest by applying Active Learning Strategies Everyone is a Teacher Here, it showed an increase of 17.5 points, with an average of 74.5. The learning outcomes were tested by using Gainscore’s formula (g) which obtained 0.337 g with middle score criteria.

This research is motivated by the poor results of Study Social Sciences (IPS) Student Class VI SDN 024 Tarai Bangun Kecamatan Tambang. This study aims to determine the resulting increase studying social sciences (IPS) student class VI SDN 024 Tarai Bangun Kecamatan Tambang through the application of learning strategies go to yuor post, which carried out for 1 month. The subjects were VI SDN 024 Tarai Bangun Kecamatan Tambang by the number of students as many as 38 people. Form of research is classroom action research. The research instrument consists of instruments and instrument performance data collection activity observation sheet form teacher and student activity. Based on the research, the conclusion to this study is based on the analysis and discussion in chapter IV can be concluded that the application of learning strategies go to yuor post can improve learning outcomes in the subject of social sciences grade VI SDN 024 Tarai Bangun Kecamatan Tambang. Evidenced by the increase in learning outcomes before action to the first cycle, to cycle II. Before the act of student learning outcomes classified as unresolved with an average of 59%, an increase in the first cycle by an average of 69%. While the results of student learning in the second cycle must be increased by an average of 75% with the category completed.

Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan: (1) hasil belajar menggambar teknik siswa yang diajar dengan strategi pembelajaran elaborasi lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan siswa yang diajar dengan strategi pembelajaran ekspositori, (2) hasil belajar menggambar teknik siswa yang memiliki motif berprestasi tinggi lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan siswa yang memiliki motif berprestasi rendah dan (3) interaksi antara strategi pembelajaran dengan motif berprestasi dalam mempengaruhi hasil belajar menggambar teknik siswa. Metode penelitian menggunakan metode quasi eksperimen dengan desain penelitian faktorial 2x2, sedangkan teknik analisis data menggunakan ANAVA dua jalur pada taraf signifikansi a = 0.05. Hasil penelitian diperoleh: (1) hasil belajar menggambar teknik siswa yang diajar dengan strategi pembelajaran elaborasi lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan hasil belajar siswa yang diajar dengan strategi pembelajaran ekspositori, (2) hasil belajar menggambar teknik siswa yang memiliki motif berprestasi tinggi lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan hasil belajar siswa yang memiliki motif berprestasi rendah dan (3) terdapat interaksi antara strategi pembelajaran dengan motif berprestasi dalam mempengaruhi hasil belajar menggambar teknik siswa.   Kata Kunci: strategi pembelajaran elaborasi dan ekspositori, motif berprestasi, hasil belajar menggambar teknik   Abstract: This research was aimed to: (1) the learning outcomes of students who are taught drawing techniques with learning strategy elaboration higher than students taught by expository learning strategy, (2) drawing techniques learning outcomes of students who have high achievement motive higher than students who have low achievement motive, and (3) the interaction between learning strategy and achievement motives in affecting student learning outcomes drawing techniques. The research method used was quasi experiment with 2 x 2 factorial design. The analysis technique used is the two-track analysis of variance ANOVA (2 x 2) with a significance level α = 0.05. The findings of the study indicate: (1) the learning outcomes of students who are taught drawing techniques with learning strategy elaboration higher learning outcomes than students taught by expository learning strategy; (2) drawing techniques learning outcomes of students who have high achievement motive higher than the learning outcomes of students who have low achievement motive; and (3) there is interaction between learning strategy and achievement motives in affecting student learning outcomes drawing techniques. Keywords: elaboration learning strategies and expository, achievement motive, the result of learning drawing techniques

This study aims to analyze the learning process at SMP Negeri 14 Medan. This research uses qualitative research, with a case study approach of SMP Negeri 14 Medan. Data collection techniques used in this study were observation, interviews, focus group discussions and documentation and then analyzed descriptively with descriptive analysis model. The results obtained are that the modeling learning strategy has a good impact on improving student learning outcomes, by making several figures into models who practice certain materials in the learning process, so that learning to dance starts from opening, core activities to closing. The conclusion of this research is that the modeling learning strategy designed by SMP Negeri 14 Medan, the modeling learning strategy takes into account the interests of students, the learning outcomes taught with modeling learning strategies are higher than those taught with conventional learning strategies.

<p><span>Many future studies have been developed by scientists today in the form of methods, models, strategies, and techniques in improving student learning outcomes that are oriented to psychology and the development of students' intelligence. One of the latest innovations in learning offered in this study is the homogeneity psycho cognition (HPC) strategy. The research objective was to develop the latest learning strategies in physical education, sports, and health learning. This development research uses a 4D model consisting of four stages: define, design, develop, and disseminate to produce products in the form of an HPC learning strategy. This study involved 115 elementary school students in several sample schools in Ambon City as participants. This study found that the HPC learning strategy had been developed following the relevant development directions and procedures. The validation of the HPC strategy by experts indicates that the HPC strategy is feasible to implement with due regard to minor revisions. The results of small and medium-scale trials show that the HPC strategy can improve student learning outcomes.</span></p>
