Abstract

The Concept Attainment Model (CAM) is an instructional strategy used to simplify conceptual clarity and understanding among students. This study focused on examining the effect of CAM on achievement of students in Physics subject. The sample constituted 120 students with 60 males and 60 females studying in Class VII. The students were randomly divided into two groups namely experimental group and control group with 60 students each. The students of experimental group were taught by CAM while the control group followed lecture method. At the completion of teaching learning process a self-made academic achievement test was administered to the students of both groups. The data were analyzed by using mean, standard deviation and independent t-test. The study concluded that the Concept Attainment Model was more effective in improving students’ achievement than the lecture method.


[Concept Attainment Model (CAM) atau Model Pencapaian Konsep adalah strategi instruksional yang digunakan untuk menyederhanakan kejelasan konseptual dan pemahaman di antara para siswa. Penelitian ini berfokus untuk menguji pengaruh CAM terhadap prestasi siswa pada mata pelajaran Fisika. Sampel terdiri dari 120 siswa yang meliputi 60 laki-laki dan 60 perempuan yang duduk di Kelas VII. Siswa secara acak dibagi menjadi dua kelompok yaitu kelompok eksperimen dan kelompok kontrol yang masing-masing terdiri dari 60 siswa. Siswa di kelompok eksperimen diajar menggunakan CAM sementara kelompok kontrol mengikuti metode ceramah. Pada akhir proses belajar mengajar, tes prestasi akademik buatan sendiri diberikan kepada siswa dari kedua kelompok. Data dianalisis dengan menggunakan rata-rata, simpangan baku, dan uji-t independen. Studi ini menyimpulkan bahwa Concept Attainment Model lebih efektif dalam meningkatkan prestasi siswa dibandingkan dengan metode ceramah.]
