Abstract

This Classroom Action Research (CAR) aimed to determine the implementation of the Student Teams Achievement Division (STAD) cooperative learning model and its impact on the Integrated Social Studies learning outcomes of Grade VIII students at SMP Negeri 3 Idanogawo during the 2016/2017 Academic Year. Involving 23 students, the study utilized observation sheets, documentation, and achievement tests. The results from Cycle I to Cycle II showed significant improvements across all indicators. The average score for teacher performance increased from 57.73% to 78.75%, while student activeness rose from 55.39% to 78.04%. Academically, the students' average evaluation score jumped from 56.18 to 87.31. Furthermore, the classical learning mastery percentage increased drastically from 17.50% in Cycle I (failing to meet the target) to 91.30% in Cycle II, successfully surpassing the predetermined 75% success threshold. In conclusion, the STAD model effectively enhances teacher performance, student engagement, and learning outcomes. Based on these findings, the researcher suggests that teachers implement this model in Social Studies and continuously improve classroom learning activities.
