The participants were 48 students were devided into two treatment classes. Data analysis was Analysis of covariate (ANCOVA) with significance level 0,05. The result indicate that : student’s learning outcomes who uses contextual learning strategy is better than expository learning after controlling prior knowledge; there was an interaction effect between learning strategy and locus of control after controlling prior knowledge; student’s who have a more precise of internal locus of control is taught with contextual learning strategy after controlling prior knowledge; expository learning strategy more effective for students who have external locus of control after controlling prior knowledge.
