How Course Review Horay (CRH) Assisted by the Media Prezi Can Improve Cognitive Abilities of Students

Abstract

This study aims to know the effect of a cooperative learning of Course Review Horay (CRH) assisted by media Prezi can improve cognitive abilities. The method used is Quasi-Experimental Design with Non-equivalent control group design. The population in this study are class VII which consisted of 200 students, with study sample consisting of 2 classes namely experiment class using cooperative learning of Course Review Horay (CRH) assisted by media Prezi and control class using cooperative learning (CRH). Data collection instrument used were test instrument (pre-test and post-test). The results of the t-test show that there is an influence of cooperative learning of Course Review Horay (CRH) assisted by media Prezi can improve cognitive abilities. The results this study indicate that CRH model assisted by media Prezi gives influence because with this model the students are more active in learning, and motivated when the learning process has media support. So, it can be concluded that the CRH assisted media Prezi can have an influence on increasing cognitive abilities. The cognitive learning outcomes can be improved well especially in the domain of "remembering" and "understanding". This is obtained from two steps CRH that plays a role well enough to improve student cognitive abilities in both of these areas. As well media Prezi that is used make students enthusiastic to learn because of the diverse and interesting visual forms and templates.
