Efektivitas Metode Investigasi Group Terhadap Hasil Belajar Siswa Materi Energi (IPAS) di Kelas III Sekolah Dasar
Keywords:
group investigation, student learning outcomes, cooperative learning, primary science educationAbstract
Science learning in elementary schools often faces obstacles and challenges, particularly in delivering topics such as energy and electricity to students in the classroom. The core issue lies in the conventional methods commonly used by teachers, where learning is teacher-centered and tends to limit students’ active participation and understanding. As a result, students often experience a decline in interest and achievement due to monotonous and unengaging instruction. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of implementing the Group Investigation (GI) method, supported by electrical learning aids, in improving the learning outcomes of Grade III students on the topic of energy. It is expected that this approach can offer a solution to common instructional problems in Indonesia. The research adopts a quantitative approach using a classroom action research (CAR) design conducted over two cycles. The research subjects were 25 third-grade students from SDN 4 Situjaya. Learning outcome tests and classroom documentation were used as the primary instruments in this study. The results indicated a positive improvement in student participation during the learning process, with notable progress in cooperation and communication skills. This was accompanied by a significant increase in students’ test scores. In conclusion, the study demonstrates that the Group Investigation method is effective in enhancing students’ learning outcomes on the topic of electrical energy through collaborative learning and active group investigation
