MODEL PEMBELAJARAN TERPADU DENGAN PENDEKATAN FUNGSIONAL PADA MATA KULIAH HISTOLOGI
Abstract: The aim of this
study was to find out whether the integrated learning model through the
functional approach could improve the students’ academic achievement in the
Histology subject. This action research was done in three cycles during the
second semester of the 2007/2008 academic year. Each cycle consisted of four
activities: planning, implementation, observation, and reflection. The
participants of the study were PJKR students of B Group of the Histology class.
The research instruments were field notes, practicum worksheets, and tests.
Data were analyzed descriptively. Results of the study indicated that: (1) the
integrated learning model through the
functional approach improved the students’ academic achievement in the
Histology class; and (2) the most effective learning strategies in the
Histology class were conducted in three steps: (a) explanation of the three
dimension structure before the two dimension structure, (b) laboratory practice
focused on identification of Histology specimen through active learning , (c)
small group discussion with subject matter informed one week before the class.
