Abstract

The problem of this research is the application of social constructivists to determine learning outcomes so that it can improve student achievement. This research is a quantitative research and type of field research with a population of 40 students consisting of 21 students of class X IPS 1 and 19 students of X IPS 2. Data collection methods in this study are observation, learning outcome tests, interviews, and documentation. This study uses the dependent sample t test to find student learning outcomes after treatment. Based on the results of the analysis of the dependent sample t test using the SPSS 21.00 for Windows program on the pre-test and post-test scores for class X IPS, which amounted to 40 students, it was found that the Sig (2-tailed) was 0,000. Because the Sig (2-tailed) value is less than 0.05 (0.000 <0.05), Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted, which means that there is a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test learning outcomes. So it can be said that the use of social constructivist methods in the subject of Aqidah Akhlak class X IPS 1 and X IPS 2 MA Al-Ihsan Kalikejambon Tembelang Jombang is better than conventional learning methods.
