The effects of the smart apps creator-based jire collaborative learning model on students’ physics learning output in Gorontalo city

Abstract

The research aims to analyze the effects of the Smart Apps Creator-based Jire collaborative learning model on students’ physics learning output in Gorontalo City. It was experimental research with the pre-experimental design in the form of a one-group pretest-posttest design. The population was all senior high schools, i.e., seven state senior high schools, located in Gorontalo City. Using purposive sampling, two samples, namely tenth graders from classes X MIPA 1 and X MIPA 2 SMA Negeri 4 Gorontalo and tenth graders from classes X MIPA 1 and X MIPA 2 SMA Negeri 7 Prasetya Gorontalo, were gleaned. The total number of students engaged was 112. One class acted as an experimental class, and the other class acted as the replica one. Both classes acquired the Smart Apps Creator-based Jire collaborative learning model. The Smart Apps Creator-based Jire Collaborative learning model served as the independent variable (X), while student learning output served as the dependent variable (Y). Data collection was conducted by questionnaire distribution and a learning output test. Data analyses were carried out using the simple linear regression technique. The results demonstrated the effects of the Smart Apps Creator-based Jire collaborative learning model on student learning output at a t-count of 8.208 and a 0.000 significance value under a 5% alpha. As Fh > Ft = 67.364 > 3.93, the learning model (X) had a significant effect on student learning output (Y). From the R-square, the model (X) had an effect on student learning output (Y) by 38.00%. Meanwhile, 62% were affected by other variables unresearched here.
