EFEKTIVITAS PEMBELAJARAN KIMIA DENGAN PENDEKATAN SALINGTEMAS DITINJAU DARI MINAT DAN HASIL BELAJAR SISWA

Abstract

According to the most of students, chemistry is an abstract and diffi cult subject.
The learning approach that can attract the students’ interest and correlate the science,
environment, technology, and society aspects, and therefore enhance the students’ academic
result, should be applied. This research was conducted using quasi-experimental method
with cluster random sampling technique. The developed instruments consist of the learning
sets using salingtemas approach, test sets, observation and questionnaire sheets. The result
of this research shows that the chemistry learning on chemical bond topic using salingtemas
approach is effective to enhance the students’ academic result and come up the students’
learning interest. The implementation of chemistry learning using salingtemas approach is
suggested to be performed using more variative method in order to more improvement of
students’ interest and academic result.

Key words: effectiveness, Salingtemas, Interest, academic result
