Abstract:
Management of learning is believed to be one of the main factors that determine the success of students in learning. But in reality , the management of learning by teachers is far from the guidelines that have been set. One example is the low percentage of students in the class V SDN 013 Segati, Langgam Sub District, District of Pelalawan. Therefore, to improve student learning outcomes, we need some efforts to improve the learning process so that the value of student learning outcomes will be optimized. Improvement of the learning process is conducted by applying the type of cooperative learning Think Pair Square through a study of students in class V SDN 013 Segati, Langgam Sub District, District of Pelalawan, in the even semester of the academic year 2011/2012.
