Abstract

This study aims to identify and describe the increase in Literature Learning Outcomes in Understanding the Intrinsic Elements of Short Stories through the Jigsaw Method for Junior High School Students.

The conclusion of this study is the average ability of students in Pre-Cycle 57. In Cycle I the level of achievement was still low with an average score of 71 and the number of students who completed 22 people so that the percentage of completeness only reached 71%. In Cycle II it was classified as good with an average score of 82 and the number of students who completed reached 28 people so that the percentage of completeness reached 87%. This proves that there is an increase in the ability to understand the intrinsic elements of short stories through the Jigsaw method.
