The Effectivity Of Science Uno Card-Assisted CIRC Method To Classification And Scientific Communication Skills

Abstract

This study intended to examine the effectiveness of science uno card-assisted CIRC method on solar system topic to classification and scientific communication skills. This is experimental research whose samples are consisted of two classes; one as an experimental group and the other as a control group. The data of students' classification skills were gathered from posttest score on cognitive learning outcomes arranged based on four indicators. Observations were carried out in three-time learnings to obtain the data of scientific communication. The analysis of t-test of the total score of classification skills resulted in tcount=2.29 and ttable=2.00, meaning that the experimental group's classification skills were better than the control group. A Mann Whitney differential test of the total score of scientific skills resulted in Zcount=4.83 and Ztable=1.69 meaning that there was a difference of communication skills between the two classes. Based on the research results, it could be said that science uno card-assisted CIRC method on solar system topic was effective in improving classification and scientific communication skills.

CIRC Model Assisted by Flipping book Media on Vibration, Waves, and Sound Material to Improve Science Learning Outcomes in Junior High Schools

“…Components in the CIRC learning model can make teaching and learning activities more effective and creative because students together in groups can develop and exchange understandings to study a material assigned by the teacher, and group members have shared responsibility and are directly involved in learning. Facilitate students understanding of learning concepts and improve learning outcomes (Dewi et al, 2019;Yuliana et al, 2014). Furthermore, the experimental group members discussed each other's understanding of each other.…”

“…Students then conclude the content learned. Presentation activities can train students to express their own opinions in other words discussion and presentation activities on the CIRC model can also improve communication skills (Dewi et al, 2019;Ika, 2018;Zivkovic, 2014).…”
