Pengaruh Live Model, Symbolic Model, dan Verbal Description Model terhadap Pemahaman Siswa SMA tentang Konsep Sosiologi

Abstract

The Influence Of Live Model, Symbolic Model, and Verbal Description Model On Senior High School Students’ Understanding of Sociological Concepts. This study was aimed at investigat­ing how live, symbolic, and verbal description models relate to students’ understanding of sociological concepts. Cor­relational research design, involving 43 students, was employed in the study. The results show the highly significant influence of live, symbolic, and verbal description models on the students’ under­standing of sociological concepts (F= 39.891, p=0.001). Furher computation of each variable, however, demonstrates that live model has stronger correlation to the students’ understanding of socio­logical concepts than the other models (live model, r = 0.544, symbolic model, r = 0.375, verbal decrip­tion model, r = 0.475).
