EFEKTIVITAS PENGGUNAAN MODEL PEMBELAJARAN STUDENT FASILITATOR AND EXPLAINING DALAM PELAJARAN PPKn PADA SISWA SMA SWASTA MUHAMMADIYAH 11 PADANGSIDIMPUAN TAHUN PELAJARAN 2025-2026

Abstract

Civic Education (PPKn) lessons are still often teacher-centered, so student participation tends to be limited. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the Student Facilitator and Explaining (SFAE) cooperative learning model compared to conventional learning in improving civic education learning outcomes of students at Muhammadiyah 11 Private High School Padangsidimpuan for the 2025/2026 school year. The research uses a quantitative approach with a comparative experimental method and a posttest-only control group design. The study population included all 42 students in grades 10 and 11, who were then selected as the sample using total sampling. Grade 11, consisting of 20 students, received the SFAE model treatment, while grade 10, consisting of 22 students, received conventional learning. The data was collected through an objective test on Civics learning outcomes and analyzed using an independent sample t-test. The analysis results showed that the average learning outcome of the SFAE group was 80.25, categorized as very good, while the conventional group had an average of 66.59, categorized as sufficient. The t-test resulted in a t-value of 14.767, which is greater than the t-table value of 1.684 at a 0.05 significance level. Thus, the SFAE model proved to be more effective than conventional learning in improving Civics learning outcomes. These findings suggest the use of SFAE as an alternative active learning method that engages students in explaining, discussing, and collaboratively constructing understanding.
