The Influence of Flash Card Media on Student Learning Outcomes in Learning Flat Building Materials in Grade IV Elementary School

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to determine the effect of Flash Card media on the learning outcomes of students in the subject of mathematics regarding flat shapes in the 4th grade of SD Negeri 227 Palembang. The population in this study consists of all 4th-grade students, totaling 49 students, divided into two classes: class A experimental with 25 students and class B control with 24 students. This research is quantitative in nature with a quasi experimental design approach, using data collection techniques through final test (Posttest), documentation, and data analysis techniques employing Normality Tests, Hypothesis Tests, and T-tests. The results of this study indicate that the learning outcomes of experimental class IV A students taught using Flash Card media are better compared to those without Flash Card media, as evidenced by the average posttest score of experimental class IV A students being 81,20, whereas the control class IV B scored 72,08. In addition, this is also supported birutoto by the results of the independent t-test. The sample t-test resulted in a significance of 0.000 < 0.05 and t calculated > t table or 2,532 > 1.678, which indicates that the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected and the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted. Thus, based on statistical analysis, it is proven that there is an effect of Flash Card media on the mathematics learning outcomes of flat shapes for the fourth-grade students of SD Negeri 227 Palembang.
