Abstract
This research aimed to find out the effectiveness of Think Pair Share (TPS) and Two Stay Two Stray (TSTS) methods in improving student learning outcomes and cooperation skills. The population in this research were all students of class X IPS SMA N 2 Banguntapan in the academic year 2016/2017 which consisted of 98 people, divided into four parallel classes. The sampling technique is cluster sampling to classify the students into three classes, divided in experiment class 1, experiment 2, and control class which determined randomly. The data collection methods used were documentation, test, and observation techniques. The research type is quasi experiment with pretest-posttest control group design. The analysis technique used was descriptive statistical analysis and Multivariate Analysis of Variances (MANOVA). The results showed that TPS and TSTS methods were proven to be more effective than conventional ones in improving students’ learning outcomes. Students who were taught by TPS and TSTS methods were also proven to have better collaborative skills than students taught by conventional methods.
Highlights
Education is one aspect that plays an important role and is seen as the right way in improving the quality of human resources
Difference test of learning result between Two Stay Two Stray (TSTS) and conventional model found t value equal to 3,277 with a significance of 0,003, while difference test of cooperation ability between TSTS model with conventional found t value equal to 3,803 with a significance of 0,001. Since both values of significance resulted less than 0.05 it can be concluded that students taught by TSTS model have proven to have better learning outcomes and collaborative skills than students taught by conventional models
According to Huda (2014: 207) TSTS cooperative learning model as a group learning system is applied with the aim that students are able to work together and encourage each other to have better achievements. This Research found that there were significant differences in economic learning outcomes and cooperation skills among students taught by Think Pair Share (TPS), TSTS and conventional models
Summary
Education is one aspect that plays an important role and is seen as the right way in improving the quality of human resources. 20 of 2003 Article 1 Paragraph 1 of the National Education System (Sisdiknas), education is a conscious and planned effort to create an atmosphere of learning and learning program so that students actively develop their potential to have spiritual spiritual power, self-control, personality, intelligence, noble character, as well as the skills required by themselves, society, nation, and country. Indonesia’s position is ranked on 110 out of 188 countries (Republika, 2016) This indicates the need for serious attention to improving the quality of education in Indonesia. Problems in the education sector can not be separated from the role of teachers as the spearhead of the learning process. Teachers are required to always create learning atmosphere that attracts students’ interest and motivation by applying various teaching methods. Teachers who can provide varied learning methods in turn will make the students more excited and happy during the learning process because they experience a different atmosphere (Gull & Shehzad, 2015: 7)
