Numbered Heads Together

Low Social Studies (IPS) learning outcomes among Grade VIII.1 students at SMP Negeri 1 Bulango Utara motivated this study. In the initial observation, only 8 of 25 students (32%) reached the learning objective attainment criterion (KKTP) of 75, because instruction was dominated by lectures and individual assignments. This study aimed to improve student learning outcomes by implementing the Numbered Head Together (NHT) learning method in IPS. This classroom action research was conducted in two cycles, each consisting of two meetings and comprising the stages of planning, action, observation, and reflection. The subjects were 25 students of Grade VIII.1. Data were collected through teacher and student activity observation sheets, a multiple-choice test, and documentation, and were analyzed using descriptive quantitative analysis with a classical mastery indicator of 80%. The results showed that learning mastery increased from 32% in the pre-cycle to 60% in Cycle I and 88% in Cycle II, with class mean scores of 75.6 in Cycle I and 86.8 in Cycle II. Teacher and student activities also improved, particularly in group collaboration, willingness to express opinions, and individual responsibility. It can be concluded that the NHT method is effective in improving IPS learning outcomes and can serve as an alternative student-centered cooperative learning strategy.

This classroom action research describes the implementation of Numbered Heads Together (NHT) supported by KARSA (Social Analysis and Action Cards) to improve Pancasila Education learning outcomes in a fifth-grade class scenario involving 28 pupils at SDN Pakis V Surabaya. The study focuses on norms, rights, and responsibilities and consists of two cycles comprising planning, action, observation, and reflection. Synthetic data from 20-item individual tests were analyzed using mean scores, classical mastery percentages, and indicator-level response accuracy. Individual mastery was set at ≥75, with a classical mastery target of ≥85%. The mean score increased from 65.18 in the pre-cycle to 77.50 in cycle I and 87.86 in cycle II. Classical mastery increased from 25.00% to 64.29% and reached 89.29% in cycle II, thereby meeting the predetermined target. Improvements in cycle II included structured guiding questions, rotating group roles, and individual understanding checks. Three pupils remained below the mastery criterion and required remedial learning.

این پژوهش اقدام پژوهی کلاسی به توصیف اجرای مدل Numbered Heads Together (NHT) با پشتیبانی رسانه KARSA (کارت تحلیل اجتماعی و اقدام) به منظور بهبود نتایج یادگیری درس آموزش پاندچاسیلا در سناریوی کلاس پنجم با حضور ۲۸ دانش‌آموز در دبستان SDN Pakis V سورابایا می‌پردازد. تمرکز پژوهش بر هنجارها، حقوق و مسئولیت‌ها بوده و شامل دو چرخه متشکل از برنامه‌ریزی، اقدام، مشاهده و تأمل است. داده‌های ترکیبی حاصل از آزمون‌های فردی ۲۰ سؤالی با استفاده از میانگین نمرات، درصد تسلط کلاسیک و دقت پاسخ‌دهی در سطح شاخص‌ها تحلیل شدند. معیار تسلط فردی برابر یا بیشتر از ۷۵ و هدف تسلط کلاسیک برابر یا بیشتر از ۸۵٪ تعیین شد. میانگین نمرات از ۶۵٫۱۸ در پیش‌آزمون به ۷۷٫۵۰ در چرخه اول و ۸۷٫۸۶ در چرخه دوم افزایش یافت. تسلط کلاسیک از ۲۵٫۰۰٪ به ۶۴٫۲۹٪ و در چرخه دوم به ۸۹٫۲۹٪ رسید و بدین ترتیب هدف تعیین‌شده محقق شد. بهبودهای چرخه دوم شامل پرسش‌های راهنمای ساختاریافته، چرخش نقش‌های گروهی و بررسی درک فردی بود. سه دانش‌آموز همچنان زیر معیار تسلط باقی ماندند و به آموزش جبرانی نیاز داشتند.
