Abstract

This study aims to describe the effectiveness of the discovery learning model with a scientific approach to the science learning of temperature and heat matter. Discovery learning model is a learning model that aims to train students in finding the concept independently in solving problems. This research uses one group pretest-posttest design. The subjects of the study included three classes of students of the Public school of 1 Krian class VII-C, VII-D, and VII-E in the second semester of the academic year 2017/2018. Data collection used observation, test, and questionnaire methods. Instruments used include the test results of learning as much as 20 items. The effectiveness of learning is evaluated from the value of N-Gain which are class VII-C of 0.77, class VII-D of 0.75, and class VII-E of 0.75 from which each grade obtained high N-Gain value. The affective and psychomotor learning outcomes were calculated percentage achievement. Student's response to learning by using the discovery learning method with scientific approach was very positive, 94.85% responded well and 5.15% responded less well. Based on the findings of this study, it is concluded that the students' learning outcomes in both cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects have improved by using discovery learning with a scientific approach.
