Abstract

This research was motivated by low students' achievement on Basic ChemistryI course. Students could not study autonomously and the learning process have notactivated the students. This research was conducted with class action research designwith two cycles that consist of planning, acting, observing, and reflecting. Theobtained data were analyzed by descriptive-qualitative approach. The respondentswere students of Chemistry Programme on first semester who were active on BasicChemistry I course.
