Students' ability in solving physics-analysis problem through the TAI type cooperative learning model

Abstract

This study aims to determine students' learning ability in completing the questions of Physics-analysis through the TAI type cooperative learning model. The research design used was pre-experimental design of The One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The research subjects consisted of 30 first-level students (15 years old). The data was the students' problem sloving and collected through the instrument which is in the form of an essay tests that have been validated by two experts in the field of Physics. The responses were then assessed using the assessment rubric and then processed using the SPSS program to get the results of paired sample t-test analysis. The results of t-test calculations was t= -24.475, p < 0.00. The results showed that there were differences in students' learning abilities to solving the physics-analysis problems during the pre-test and post-test, so the use of this learning model could improve the ability of students in solving the analysis problem of physics in the motion concept in physics lesson.
