Using inquiry-based learning to strengthen student learning outcomes

Abstract

The research objective is to strengthen student learning outcomes using inquiry-based learning. This type of research is called classroom action research. This study's subjects were 34 students of class X MIPA 4 SMA Negeri 1 Wonomulyo, consisting of 12 boys and 22 girls. The instrument used to measure students' learning outcomes in this study was a multiple-choice test of 50. The indicator that shows the success of the research implementation is that students can achieve a minimum completeness value of 80% at a minimum standard score of 65. Based on the results of the classroom action research that has been implemented In SMA Negeri 1 Wonomulyo, it can be concluded that the application of the Inquiry learning model can improve student learning outcomes in class X MIPA 4 SMA Negeri 1 Wonomulyo. The increase in learning outcomes indicates the research results from cycle I to cycle II; namely, the average value of student learning outcomes increased from 26.47% to 88.23%.

The hidden curriculum and its role in curriculum innovation implementation

“…Curriculum designers have given information and experiences that appeal to these triadic aspects to enhance learners' cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains. (Abroampa, 2020;Aco et al, 2021;Vargas-Hernández & Vargas-González, 2022;Zekarias, 2022). Implementation of curricula using teaching strategies like experimentation, project method, quiz, drama, and lecture method have been able to develop cognitive, psychomotor, and affective domains of learners (Beluan et al, 2018;Hendrix et al, 2012;Mbaubedari et al, 2022;Pambudi et al, 2022;Raissi Ahvan et al, 2022;Zainuddin et al, 2020;Zannah et al, 2018).…”

The teachers' extent of utilizing teaching methods for teaching basic technology

“…No society grows as expected without investing in their education system because a territorial army of sheep commanded by a lion could overthrow a militia of lions controlled by a sheep; this depicts the need to value education (Onojah et al, 2020). The concepts and techniques of education employed by instructors to accomplish the intended learning in pupils are referred to as teaching methods (Aco et al, 2021). These approaches are based in part on the subject matter to be taught, in part on a behavioral goal, and in part on the character of the learners' background.…”

The inquiry-based student book integrated with local resources: The impact on student science process skill

“…In science learning, inquiry improves student science process skill (Marian & Jackson, 2017). In fact, inquiry is an attractive method for class with various cultures (Aco et al, 2021;Lelasari et al, 2021;Tong et al, 2014). Surely, teacher support will make the implementation of this learning more successful (Aditomo & Klieme, 2020).…”
