ANALISIS IMPLEMENTASI MODEL EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING PADA PEMBELAJARAN IPAS MATERI FOTOSINTESIS UNTUK MENCIPTAKAN PEMBELAJARAN YANG MENYENANGKAN DI KELAS IV SDN 69 KOTA BENGKULU
Abstract
This study aims to describe the implementation of the Experiential Learning model in IPAS learning on photosynthesis material for fourth-grade students at SDN 69 Kota Bengkulu. This study employed a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data were collected through observation, interviews, questionnaires, and document analysis. Data analysis involved data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that the implementation of Experiential Learning was conducted through planning, implementation, and evaluation stages. The learning activities involved students in direct experiments, observation, discussion, and reflection, which encouraged active and enjoyable learning. The main challenges were limited learning time, students’ difficulties in understanding the abstract concept of photosynthesis, and limited experimental materials. These challenges were addressed by using simple and affordable materials, providing structured follow-up activities, and involving parents in preparing materials. Overall, Experiential Learning supported meaningful and enjoyable learning of photosynthesis for fourth-grade students.
