- Abstract
This study aims to determine the differences in science learning outcomes of fifth grade elementary school students in the use of fables on animal adaptation material to their environment. This research is a quasi-experimental research with a nonequivalent control group design. Sample in this study were 27 fifth grade “A” students in Deresan Elementary School as the experimental group and 27 fifth grade “B” students as the control group. The treatment applied in the experimental group was fable. The fables used are classical and modern fables that are compatible with the animal’s adaptation material to their environment. The data of this study were obtained from the results of the pretest and posttest in the experimental group and the control group. The results of data analysis showed that the average posttest score of the experimental group (Mean = 68.59; SE = 1,894) had an average posttest score higher than the control group (Mean = 63.23; SE = 2,763). This difference is not significant t(51) = 1.661 p > 0,05 and has a “small” effect with r = 0.220. The conclusion from the results of data analysis is that there is no significant difference in the science learning outcomes of fifth grade elementary school students in the use of fables.
