EFEKTIVITAS PENGGUNAAN VIDEO PEMBELAJARAN DALAM MENINGKATKAN HASIL BELAJAR SISWA

Abstract

This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of using learning videos in improving students’ learning outcomes in Economics among tenth-grade senior high school students. The research using a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental method and a One-Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The participants consisted of 21 students selected through saturated sampling. Data collection techniques included pretest and posttest multiple-choice tests, classroom and observation. The results of the descriptive analysis showed that the average pretest score was 48.24, while the average posttest score increased significantly to 87.90. Furthermore, the N-Gain Score analysis produced an average score of 0.7639, which falls into the high effectiveness category. The paired sample t-test also revealed a significance value of less than 0.000, indicating a statistically significant difference between pretest and posttest scores. These findings demonstrate that learning videos effectively improve students’ understanding and learning outcomes in Economics. The use of audiovisual media helps students understand abstract concepts more concretely, increases learning motivation, and creates a more interactive learning environment. Therefore, learning videos can be considered an effective and innovative instructional medium to support the teaching and learning process in senior high schools. The practical implication of this research is that teachers can utilize learning videos as an easy-to-implement learning strategy to improve students' conceptual understanding and learning outcomes, especially in Economics material that requires visualization and contextual examples.
