This study aims to identify the effectiveness of cooperative learning of Jigsaw and STAD models at elementary school students. Specifically this study aims to (I) identify the learning activities of students in Jigsaw and STAD model, and (ii) identify the effect of cooperative learning on student outomes, and (iii) identify the effects of cooperative learning on social skill on elementary school students. Subjects are fourth grade elementary school student of SD Sambungan 01 and 02 in Sub District of Undaan in Kudus Regency, was randomly selected through cluster sampling technique includes two experimental groups. It consists of 20 students for STAD model and 21 students for Jigsaw model. Collecting the data in the form of student learning outcomesn conducted during the 2009.1 academic year through tests and non test. Data was analyzed using ANOVA and testing requirements through the normality test and homogeneity of variance. Data processing activities and skills gained through observation and then be processed through descriptive analysis. Research results revealed that the implementation of cooperative learning model of Jigsaw and STAD model was capable to improve student learning activities. While the use of both models show that students only skillful in capturing the concept. The value of the influence of process skills with Jigsaw model is 59.6% and with the STAD model is 55.5%. Average yield study showed significance differences that Jigsaw model is better than STAD model. This means that the Jigsaw model is more able to improve student learning activity compared with STAD model. It is concluded that the Jigzaw model is better than STAD model. Teachers are advised to apply Jigsaw method of cooperative learning model as an alternative to teaching in the classroom. |
