THE EFFECT OF GUIDED DISCOVERY LEARNING METHOD ON STUDENT’S LEARNING ACHIEVEMENT OF STATIC FLUID
IN CLASS XI SMA NEGERI 1 SERDANG BEDAGAI ACADEMIC YEAR 2015/2016
Astrid Pasadena Harahap (Reg. Number : 409322013) ABSTRACT
The objectives of this research are: (1) to know the student’s learning outcomes in physics subject after taught by Guided Discovery Learning Model, (2) to know the student’s learning achievement in physics subject after taught by Conventional Learning, (3) to know the effect of Guided Discovery Learning Model on student’s learning achievement of Static Fluid in Class XI SMA N 1 Serdang Bedagai Academic Year 2015/2016. The research method was quasi experimental. The research subject were populations were all XI IPA semester II SMA N 1 Serdang Bedagai that consist of 2 classes. Each class consist 25 students, XIIPA2 as experiment class, XIIPA1 as control class.
From data analyze results were obtained: pre-test mean value of experiment class was 21.19 and 18.68 for control class and then post-test mean value of the experiment class was 64.96 and 56.52 was the mean value for control class. Standard deviation in pre-test was 3.02 in experiment class and 2.97 in control class and standard deviation in post-test for two classes were 8.59 and 7.54. Both samples was normal distribution and homogenous. Hypothesis test for post-test using t-test one side, the criteria is : Ha is accepted if tcount > ttableand is rejected if tcount has another score. From the calculation of t-test one side obtained tcount = 3.89, where ttable = 2.012, tcount > ttable. So, there is effect of Guided Discovery Learning Model on Student’s Learning achievement in Static Fluid in Class XI SMA N 1 Serdang Bedagai.
Linear equation has a value that increases slope. If seen from the graph, the value of a at ypost=0.833x+54.05 bigger than the value of a at ypre=0.405x+15.85. However, from the graph it appears that the value apost > apre, which indicates that the activity is affect the value of learning outcomes.

CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background
Science is the body of knowledge that describes the order within nature and the causes of that order, science is an ongoing human activity that represents the collective efforts, findings, and wisdom of the human race, an activity that is dedicated to gathering knowledge about the world and organizing and condensing it into testable laws and theories (Hewitt, 2006).
Science is a field of endeavor as exciting and aesthetically rich as literature and art. A new teaching and learning paradigm is necessary to convince students science is more than a collection of laws and equations in a textbook. Students must given opportunity to explore, to try, even to play and enjoy "on their own" in much the same fashion that scientists do research in labs (Obstrovsky,1991).
In Indonesia, physics subject usually taught in junior and senior high school as one of the main subject. Physics is more than a part of the physical sciences. It is the basic science; it's about the nature of basic things. The concepts of physics reach up to these more complicated sciences. That's why physics is the most basic science. An understanding of science begins with an understanding of physics (Hewitt, 2006).

The result of preliminary observation showed that there are some problems: 1) Teacher make group of student but the learning activity is writing and give example question; 2) school do not have physics laboratory or provide enough tool and instrument 3) Teacher only once a while bring physics instruments to help student understand the concept; 4) Teacher often use simple formula problem solving method because he think student will easier to understand but when problem modified student become confuse and learning outcome low.
Learning physics has been less providing change for students to understand the physics they are studying. The main focus of learning physics for this is to get an answer. The students rely entirely on the teacher to determine whether the answer is correct. So that every physics lesson presented in class are more dictate. It is possible students earn high scores, but they are not good thinkers in the class and will have difficulty in solving physics problems, especially for problems solving. That will further obstruct the student’s creative ability.
To overcome the above problems and to achieve the educational goals to the maximum, the teacher's role is very important and teachers are expected to have a good model of teaching and able to choose appropriate learning method and suitable with the concepts of the subjects that will be delivered.
In learning physics, students should be given the opportunity to discover his own facts and concepts, which involve the students learning process, can be created by teachers, one of which is through the method of discovery. Discovery method is a way of developing active learning to find their own students, investigating their own, then the results obtained will be long-lasting in the memory and can improve students' thinking processes. The most fundamental differences of discovery learning different from traditional forms of learning are 1) learning is active rather than passive 2) learning is process-oriented rather than content-oriented, 3) failure is important, 4) feedback is necessary and 5) understanding is deeper (Papert, 2000).
Learning becomes more meaningful when students explore their learning environments rather than listen passively to teachers (Bruce, 2003).
Based on the background above, researcher is interested to take one research with title:"THE EFFECT OF GUIDED DISCOVERY LEARNING MODEL TO STUDENT'S LEARNING ACHIEVEMENT IN STATIC FLUID TOPIC AT CLASS X1 SMA N 1 SERDANG BEDAGAI ACADEMIC YEAR 2015/2016"

CHAPTER V
CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION 5.1 Conclusion
Based on research result, data analysis, and discussion can be concluded that:
1. Student’s learning achievemnt in experiment class using Guided Discovery Learning Model was increase from 21.19 to 64.96.
2. Student’s learning achievement in control class using Conventional Learning also increase from 18.62 to 56.62.
3. The avarage value of student’s learning achievement in experiment class using Guided Discovery Learning Model is higher than students in control class using conventional learning model. Based on the result of data analysis on hypohesis test using t-test one side, obtained tcount> ttable, 3.89 > 2.012, that means there are effect of student’s learning achievement using guided discovery learning model in static fluid topic at class XI SMA N 1 Serdang Bedagai.

Based on research result and discussion before, research gives suggestions as below:
1. For further research to use time efficiently and effectively thus the data collection and generalization syntax in guided discovery learning model can achieved and occurs better
2. For futher research to give more attention and guidance to student who less active in learning process.
