LEARNING STYLES, LEARNING STRATEGIES AND LEARNING OUTCOMES OF SCIENCE IN PRIMARY SCHOOL

This study aimed to examine the differences in the results of student learning in science among groups of students learn by using guided discovery learning strategy with a group of students who learn to use conventional learning strategies. Besides, it also tested the differences in learning outcomes between students who have an active learning style with reflective. Then analyzed whether there are interactions between the two learning strategies used against student learning outcomes. The method used in this research is quasi experiment with pretest-posttest non-equivalent control group design. The subjects were as many as 66 students of class V elementary school in North Lombok Indonesia. The instrument of this research is test result of learning and learning style questionnaire. Achievement test are obtained from the subject matter that is given at the time of the study, while the learning style questionnaire that is used to adapt the learning style of the Index of Learning Style (ILS) Felder-Solomon. Data analysis techniques are divided into two groups, namely data analysis to test requirements analysis and data analysis to test the hypothesis of the study. To test requirements analysis using test data normality and homogeneity of variance. Test data normality using the Kolmogorov-Smimov technique and homogeneity test variants using levene's test, while the analysis of data to test hypotheses using statistical parametric studies, the ANOVA analysis techniques (analisys of variance) two lanes. The conclusions of this study were (1) the learning strategy invention have better effect on student learning outcomes compared with conventional learning strategies, especially in science learning; (2) The student's learning style active to get the better learning than students who have learning styles reflective on both setrategi applied learning, and (3) There is no interaction between the learning strategies and learning styles on the learning outcomes of students in the subjects of Science Pengetahua nature in elementary school.
