The Influence of Demonstration Methods to Improve Student Learning Outcomes in Social Science Subjects

Nur Millawati, Siti Nurjanah, Andi Sriwijaya

Abstract


Low learning outcomes in Natural and Social Sciences (IPAS) at the elementary school level are often caused by a lack of variety in learning methods and a lack of visualization of abstract concepts. Therefore, this study aims to examine the effect of implementing the demonstration method on improving sixth-grade student learning outcomes at SD Negeri 2 Karang Anyar. The approach used was quantitative, with a pre-experimental One-Group Pretest-Posttest design. The study sample involved 16 students selected using a total sampling technique. Data collection instruments consisted of a multiple-choice test and a teacher activity observation sheet. The analysis results showed an increase in the average score from 60.62 to 78.94. Furthermore, the Paired T-Test and Wilcoxon test yielded a significance value of 0.000 (<0.05). Thus, the demonstration method has proven effective in improving student learning outcomes while facilitating a more concrete and meaningful understanding of concepts.
