Abstract

This study has been conducted to investigate the comparisons of concept understanding students who has been subjected Learning Cycle (LC) 5E teaching model combined with STEM and students who has been subjected LC 5E without STEM on direct current electricity concept. Implementation STEM in this research is apply and practice STEM content to integrate technology, engineering and mathematics. The quasi experiment methodology was used in this study. The research includes pretest-posttest control group design. The subjects of the research consist of 92 students at 10th grade of one of high school existing in Kabupaten Majalengka. The data collection tools for the research are 20 multiple choice of concept understanding test with indicator interpreting, comparing, exemplying, explaining and inferring. As a result of the research, it was found that implementation STEM in Learning Cycle 5E in direct current electricity improvement of concept understanding of students who received LC 5E combined with STEM higher than students who had learning LC 5E without STEM.
