EFFECTIVENESS OF GSECE LEARNING MODEL (GUIDING, SEARCHING, EXPERIENCING, COMMUNICATING, EVALUATING) FOR PHYSICS LEARNING AT VOCATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL.

Abstract: This study aims to examine the effectiveness of GSECE learning model (Guiding, Searching, Experiencing, Communicating, Evaluating) for physics learning in Vocational High School. Effectiveness is determined by its impact on learning outcomes, student responses and student learning activities. This research was conducted at SMK Negeri 7 Jember with sample number 35 student of class X TKJ. Methodology: This research type is quasi experiment with control group design pretest and post test in the experimental group (n = 35), Data collection techniques used tests, questionnaires and observations. Data analysis techniques use independent sample t test to determine the impact of GSECE model on learning outcomes. Percentage technique to determine student response and student learning activities. Result: ressult of research that t count = 4.75 and t table = 1,99 (t count > t table) and P value (0,000<0,05) mean there is difference between experiment group and control group, percentage of student response in experiment group learning with GSECE learning model 78,46% (good category), control group 60,45% (good ), and percentage of learning activity of experimental group studying with GSECE 69,86% (active category), control group 62.92% (active category). Conclusion: the GSECE learning model is effective for physics learning as indicated by significant differences on learning outcomes, good student responses, and active learning category students' learning.
