The Effect of Modeling Learning, Audio-Visual Media, and Intellectuals on Pencak Silat Learning Outcomes

Abstract

This study analyzed the influence of modeling learning, audio-visual media, and intellectuals on pencak silat learning outcomes. The study employed an experimental approach with a 2 × 2 factorial design. It involved 40 university students who were enrolled in the sports science program. The study began with the preparation of the study administration. After that, subjects were put into two major groups based on their intellectual test scores. Based on the median, 10 people were taken at the top of the median, and the other 10 people were taken at the bottom of the median. Every 10 subjects were divided again into two smaller groups to create four small groups of five people in each group. Then, these groups were put into cells by drawing lots. The first major group contained two smaller groups of subjects with high and low intellectual abilities. These groups were given modeling lessons. Similarly, the second major group comprised subjects with high and low intellectual abilities. Only these subjects were given audio-visual media learning. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. All data from this study was processed using the SPSS application. To determine differences in pencak silat learning outcomes in each group, the data obtained from the test and measurement results were analyzed using ANOVA. The results reported that modeling learning and the use of audio-visual media make a difference in pencak silat learning outcomes for students with high and low intellectual abilities. This study also noted that direct learning modeling provides better results than using audio-visual media. This is because when using modeling learning, students can immediately observe and practice what is demonstrated by a model, so the material and practice can be immediately accepted.
