Pengaruh Model Pembelajaran TPS terhadap Hasil Belajar Kognitif Biologi Siswa Putra Kelas XI SMAN di Banjarmasin
Abstract: Teachers need to
know deeper about learning style and how to facilitate students’ needs in
learning in order to stimulate students’ thinking skill which might affect
students’ cognitive learning outcome. Teachers can facilitate students’
learning style and needs by designing teaching instruments which develop
students’ thinking skill. This current study focused on male students whose
learning outcome was considered low compared to female students based on
previous studies. Because of this male students’ characteristic, this study
employed TPS learning model which is believed be able to facilitate the
students’ characteristics and learning style. The purpose of this study was to
analyze the effect of Think, Pair, and Share (TPS) learning model to cognitive
learning outcome of Biology toward the XI grade of male high school students
majoring natural science (IPA). The participants of this study consisted of 22
male students from IPA on the state high schools in Banjarmasin. This study
employed quasi-experimental design by using “nonequivalent pretest-post test
control group design” model. Regarding limited number of the male students in
the natural science classes, this study involved four classes. The control
class was from XI IPA 2 of SMAN 10 and XI IPA 4 SMAN 13 Banjarmasin with
totally 11 students. Meanwhile, the experimental class was from XI IPA 3 of
SMAN 12 and XI IPA 3 SMAN 13 with 11 students as well. The data were obtained
by using an essay test and the scoring rubric which was referred to Hart with
interval 0–4. Then, they were analyzed using one way Anova through SPSS 17.0
for Windows. The homogeneity and the normality tests were done as the
pre-requirement. The result of this study showed that TPS learning model
affected the male students’ learning outcome. The finding revealed that TPS is
potential for improving male students’ learning outcome. The data also support
the findings of previous studies related to male students’ academic
