Cognitive Learning Outcomes of Gas Kinetic Theory Based on InquiryApproach

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find the result of student's cognitive through the implementation of gas kinetic learning media based on the inquiry approach of XI MIA 3 SMAN 4 Pekanbaru. This research form is pre-experimental with one shot case study method. The data of this study is student’s cognitive score by the post-test . The analysis conducted on the student’s cognitive learning outcomes in the form of study absorption, learning effectivity and the percentage of student's pass of each tested indicator. The result obtained from this study are, from 36 students, 3 students have a very good study absorption, 23 have a good study absorption, 8 have a good study absorption, 1 has a less good study absorption and 1 fail. The learning effectivity is in a good category with a percentage of 69 ,4%. The conclusion is physics learning with inquiry approach goes well.
