Improving effectiveness learning solar system through mind mapping strategy with mase paper ball and flashcard

Abstract

Natural Science Lessons emphasize providing direct experience, to develop competencies in order to explore and understand the natural surroundings scientifically. It is taught to equip students to have knowledge (knowing various ways) and skills (how to do it) that can help students to understand natural phenomena in depth. However, in the learning process, students still have difficulty understanding of the solar system. Inadequate media and conventional learning processes make students' enthusiastic in participating in learning still low, and this makes learning not as expected by the teacher. In the solar system topic, the teacher expects students to be able to understand the position of the planets in the solar system in order and correctly. The strategy used in the learning process is to apply two-dimensional mind mapping using mase paper balls made of pulp and flashcards made by the teacher. The goal that is expected in the learning process using these strategies and media is to increase the effectiveness of student learning. The research was conducted using the R and D (Research and Development) method using the ADDIE model development method (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). Effective learning is active, creative and fun learning for students so that learning outcomes increase. Effectiveness is the level of success achieved from implementing a strategy and learning media, in this case measured from student learning outcomes. The results of the final assessment are in the form of a process assessment and a final assessment.
