The Effect of Cooperative Learning Model Type NHT and NHT Modified Audiovisual Media on The Learning Achievement Science Viewed from Students’ Learning Independence

Abstract

The objective of this research was to improve the effect of the learning model on the learning achievement of science viewed from students’ learning independence. The learning models compared were cooperative learning model type NHT, NHT modified with audiovisual media and direct learning. The type of research was quasi-experimental research with factorial design 3×3. Population of this research was all students of fifth grade elementary school in Gemolong. The total samples in this  research  were  sixty  nine  students.  The hypothesis test  used  two-way analysis variant with unbalanced cells. The results show that there was a different significant effect among cooperative  learning  model  type  NHT,  audiovisual media-modified NHT and direct learning on the learning achievement. Besides that, there was different significant effect among students who have high, medium, and low learning independence. However, there wasn’t an interaction between learning model and learning independence on the learning achievement of science. Based on data analysis, cooperative learning model type NHT modified with audiovisual media is the most effective. This learning model are hopefully able to contribute the better learning achievement of science in the future.
