The Influence of Contextual Teaching and Learning Models on Improving Students' Social Cohesion

Abstract

This research aimed to explain the effect of applying based learning models to contextual teaching and learning on student learning outcomes and attitudes toward social cohesion. The type of research was experimental research (quasi-experiment design). The sampling was based on the purposive sampling technique obtained by students of class XIA (N = 30) as an experimental class that applied learning with the model of contextual teaching and learning and students of class XIB (N = 30) as a control class that applied conventional learning. Data collection techniques use tests for learning outcomes. Based on the results of the t-test analysis of two independent samples through the average value of posttest learning outcomes, namely t_count > t_table (1.96 > 1.71), it was concluded that there was an effect of learning using the model contextual teaching and learning of learning outcomes and attitude of social cohesion.
