outcomes also increased from the first cycle with the average score of 71.81 with minimum completeness criteria KKM of 68.18 and can be said has
not been passed these criteria because has not reached the score of at least 85. In the second cycle, the score of learning outcomes increased to 82.92
with minimum completeness criteria KKM of 90.91 and can be said passed these criteria because it has reaches 85. The similarity of this
research and the research conducted by Fadlyati Hanif is equally use the Cooperative Learning Model Type Think Pair Share and the objectives is
equally to Improve Learning Outcomes in Accounting, while the difference lies in the research place, time, and subjects.
b The research conducted by Zanu Fahrul 2010 entitled “Penerapan Metode

1 at SMK Negeri Tempel 1 academic year of 20112012. The similarity of
this research and the research conducted by Anggara is equally use the Cooperative Learning Model Type Think Pair Share and the objectives is
