ABSTRACT
The aim of this research is to know the effectiveness of laboratory
experiment method to increase students’ achievement, students’ activities
and the significance correlation between students’ achievement and
student’s activity. Population of this rearch are all of students in grade XI
at 2nd semester from SMA Negeri 1 Lubukpakam, SMA Negeri 3 Medan,
and SMA Swasta Methodist 1 Medan. Sample was choosen by purposive
random sampling and taken 2 class for each school. The students were
divided into two groups, one as experimental class and other as control
class. Research design in this study using Quasy experimental design. The
Instrument test that was used in the form of 20 multiple choice as
achievement test and non-test in list of activity form. In experimental class
was used laboratory experiment method and in control was used
conventional method. After conducting research, have gotten the result in
experimental class the average of % gain is 80.00 ± 6.71 and in control
class 63.00 ± 7.00. The hypothesis testing by using right side t-test.
Criterion of hypothesis is received Ha if the value of tcount > ttabel . From the
calculation of hypothesis testing for student’s achievement obtained the
value of tcount is 15.591 where ttabel = 1.288. It means that tcount ( 15.591) >

ttabel (1.288) so it means (Ha) is accepted and (Ho) is rejected. It proved
that the mean of student’s achievement that taught using laboratory
experiment method is higher than conventional method. Also hypothesis
testing for student’s learning activities obtained result tcount= 5.633 while
ttabel = 1.288, it means that tcount > ttabel so it means accepted (Ha) and
rejected (Ho). It means the mean of student’s learning activity that taught
using laboratory experiment method is higher than conventional method.
The result of correlation calculation between student’s activities and
student’s achievement obtained low correlation and positive in
experimental class where obtained rcount = 0.264. The % effectiveness of
applying laboratory experiment method to increase student’s achievement
in experiment class is 23.33 % while the % effectiveness to increase
student’s learning activity in experiment class is 18 %.

CHAPTER V
CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION

5.1. Conclusion
After conducted research, and analyze the data have gotten some
conclusion, they are:
1. Mean of Student’s learning achievement that taught by laboratory
experiment method is higher than mean of student’s learning
achievement that taught by conventional method in teaching of
solubility and solubility product topic.
2. Mean of Student’s learning activities that taught by laboratory
experiment method is higher than mean of student’s learning activities
that taught by conventional method in teaching of solubility and
solubility product topic.
3. There

is low correlation that positive between student’s learning

activities and student’s learning outcomes in teaching of solubility and
solubility product topic.
4. Laboratory experiment method that used is effective to increase
student’s learning achievement in teaching of solubility and solubility
product topic.
5. Laboratory experiment method that used is effective to increase
student’s learning activities on teaching of solubility and solubility
product topic.

56

5.2 . Suggestion
From the results obtained from this study, some suggestions had to
be raised

in order to learning process on chemistry is effective in

increasing of student’s achievements, those are:
1. It is suggested to chemistry teachers to using laboratory
experiment method in the learning process of Solubility and
Solubility Product because laboratory experiment method can
increase student’s achievement and student’s activities during
the learning process.
2. It is suggested to chemistry teacher to be competent to choose
and determine model of learning process, method, approach
and strategy in learning process so that students not always
accept the information only from teacher.
