The Effects of Cooperative Learning Model Make A Match Type to the Students’ Knowledge and Attitudes Competence on Organization of Life System Material in SMPN 13 Padang

Abstract

The learning process at SMPN 13 Padang is teacher-centered, that effects students are less active. Teachers have not implemented innovative learning model, this makes students bored and lack of concentration during the learning process.
