Effectiveness of using sequenced model student books for integrated science lessons with themes of the human body adaptation system at temperature on student learning outcomes

Abstract

Learning science should be developed as an integrative science between physics, biology, and chemistry. The real conditions in schools that science subjects are not yet integrated. One of the solutions that can be done is to apply integrated science book sequenced models. The theme used is the human body’s adaptation system at temperature. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of integrated science books on sequenced models on student learning outcomes. The type of this research is Quasi experiment with the design of Randomize control-Group. The population of this study was all seventh-grade students at SMP 8 Padang in West Sumatra who were enrolled in school in 2017/2018. The data of this study were analyzed using descriptive, hypothesis testing, simple linear regression and correlation test. At the real level at 0.05 for both aspects. The results of the study found that the integrated science textbook sequenced model had a significant influence on learning outcomes in the knowledge aspect at a 95% confidence level.
