Upaya Meningkatkan Hasil Belajar IPA Materi Kegunaan Energi dengan Metode Demonstrasi Siswa Kelas V SD Negeri 4 Muara Dua

Abstract

The aims of this study are: (a) To improve the science learning outcomes (b) to increase the activeness of students in learning Science (c) to increase students' interest in learning Science? The research method used is classroom action research (CAR) that consists of 2 cycles. The subjects of Class V students as 26 students. Data analysis used comparative descriptive analysis techniques by comparing the initial conditions with the results achieved in each cycle, and qualitative descriptive analysis of observations by comparing the results of observations and reflections in cycle I and cycle II.
