PENGGUNAAN PENDEKATAN KONSTRUKTIVISME DI KALANGAN PELAJAR SAINS BIOLOGYI DI SMPN 5 PEKANBARU

Abstract

It was conducted a research of student’s learning result Sains Biology by using constructivism approach at first class in SMPN 5 pekanbaru on march up to mey 2008. The research is aimed to know the influence by using constructivism approach of student’s learning result. The methode used quasi exsperiment. Data collection technique with proposive sample, after homogenues testing the writer dirrectly devided both experimental and controlled class. The parametre of the research is student’s learning result based on cognitive and physicomotoric aspects (skill process). The instruments used were pre test and post test design, in measuring skill process were observation and LKS. Data analysis were homogeneus and significance of t‐test. The cognitive average was 6,23 of experiment with increase 55%, and the controlled was 5,48 with increasing 30,2%. Students result in skill process of exprimental was 73,6% (good) and controlled class was 57,7 (enough). By using t‐test procedure, the‐tsignificance = 24,1 ,and t tabel o,99 = 2,39 , t tabel 0,95 = 2,35. It shows significance influence to the students’s learning result by using constructivism approach. It means, learning biology toward contructivism approach can to increase student’s result of their skill processes.
