Super-Item Learning Model-based E-Learning for Alpha Generation in Makassar

Abstract

The Super Item Learning Model is a learning model that is carried out by giving assignments to students in stages from simple to complex, in the form of problem-solving. Through this learning model, students can easily solve a problem from the teaching material provided. This super-item learning model is synergized with e-learning-based learning so that students, especially the alpha generation, are more motivated and interested in following the learning process. This study used a quasi-experimental method. The population of this study was fifth-grade students in several elementary schools in Makassar city in the academic year 2020/2021. This study uses cluster random sampling. The sample in the study consisted of 60 students who were in two groups; 30 students in the control group and 30 students in the experimental group. The research data were collected using tests, interviews, and questionnaires which were analyzed descriptively and inferential statistics through the SPSS version 22 program for Windows. Based on the results of data analysis, it was found that the adoption of the e-learning-based super-item learning model could improve student learning outcomes and motivation in the learning process. The results of this study can be used by teachers, principals, and stakeholders with an interest in education development to find other ways in terms of increasing student learning outcomes and increasing student motivation in learning.
