The Effectiveness of Discovery Learning on Thematic Learning on the Understanding of the Concept Social Science in Class IV Elementary School Students

This research was descriptively to determine the effectiveness of Discovery Learning and Numbered Head Together on understanding the thematic learning concepts of Social Science content in fourth grade students of SD Sedabin Ahmad Yani, Kemusu District. The type of research used in this study was Quasi Experiment. The populations of this study were all fourth-grade students of SD Sedabin Ahmad Yani, Kemusu District with a total of 116 students, while the sample was 28 students. Data collection techniques used documentation and test techniques. Instrument test used a test which includes a test of the validity of the items with biserial correlation; the results obtained are 25 valid items and 5 invalid items. Reliability using the KR-20. The data analysis technique used was the distribution normality test, the homogeneity of variance test, and the Paired Sample T-Test.
The results of the descriptive study showed that the trend of understanding concepts in the experimental class using Discovery Learning obtained an average score of 21.142 and included in the very high category, while the control class using Numbered Head Together obtained an average score of 18.357 and also included in the high category. But the average score of Discovery Learning was higher than Numbered Head Together. So, it can be concluded that the understanding of the thematic learning concepts of Social Science content in the experimental class was higher than the control class. Based on the results of hypothesis testing using the t-test, the result = 3.446, 0.002, it can be concluded that < 0.05, there was a very significant difference between Discovery Learning and Numbered Head Together on understanding the thematic learning concepts of fourth grade students at SD Sedabin Ahmad Yani, Kemusu District.
