Application of the guided inquiry learning model based on contextual approach to the subject of parabolic motion to students' learning outcomes in SMA Negeri 2 Indramayu

Abstract

The research problem was obtained by the low average value of physics from the results of the midterm assessment of students at SMA Negeri 2 Indramayu and less interested in learning physics, so the research focused on the learning outcomes of cognitive abilities of students in class X-1 MIPA with an average score of 46.00 had not reached the target the minimum set is 75. This action research aims to improve the learning outcomes of SMA Negeri 2 Indramayu students by applying a guided inquiry learning model based on a contextual approach to the subject of projectile motion. The action model consists of three cycles carried out from September to October 2022. Each action cycle consists of planning, implementation and reflection. The instruments used were cognitive ability assessment and observation sheets. Based on the results of the research and discussion, gradually in each cycle the learning outcomes of students' cognitive abilities increase so that it can be concluded that the application of the guided inquiry learning model based on a contextual approach to the subject of projectile motion can improve student learning outcomes at SMA Negeri 2 Indramayu.
