Pemanfaatan Web PhET Simulations untuk Meningkatkan Pemahaman dan Hasil Belajar Matematika Materi Pecahan Siswa Kelas IV MI Nurul Islam Dasan Baru
Keywords:
PhET Simulations, fractions, understanding, learning outcomesAbstract
Learning mathematics, particularly fractions, is often challenging for elementary school students due to its abstract and difficult-to-understand nature. This study aims to improve the understanding and learning outcomes of fourth-grade students at MI Nurul Islam Dasan Baru in fractions through the use of interactive learning media PhET Simulations. This study uses the Kurt Lewin Classroom Action Research (CAR) approach, which consists of planning, action, observation, and reflection stages. The subjects were all fourth-grade students in the 2024/2025 academic year. Data collection techniques included observation, testing, and documentation. Data were analyzed descriptively by calculating the average score and percentage of learning completion. The results showed that the use of PhET Simulations can significantly improve students' understanding of fraction concepts, encourage active student involvement in the learning process, and improve overall learning outcomes. Thus, the integration of interactive media such as PhET in mathematics learning can be an effective solution to overcome student learning difficulties and create a more meaningful learning experience.
