Abstract

This paper presents a new approach to determine the difference in problem-solving abilities between students treated with a concept attainment model and those treated with discovery learning model. This study was experimental research. The population of the study was 12th graders of Science in the 1st Public Senior High School of Karas (Indonesian: SMA Negeri 1 or SMAN 1 Karas), Magetan Regency, in academic year 2016/2017. The sample was taken using cluster random sampling technique, consisting of two classes: class XII Science 4 as the first experimental class using concept attainment model and class XII Science 3 as the second experimental class using discovery learning model. The technique of collecting data used an independent sample T-test technique for problem-solving test results. The data analysis was carried out using the mean difference test of two unpaired samples. The results showed that there was a difference between students' learning outcomes between students treated with a concept attainment model and those treated with discovery learning model. The students who were taught using the concept attainment model was higher than they who were taught using a discovery learning model.
