Abstrak

This research aimed to determine the effectiveness of the implementation of concept attainment learning model to increase cognitive learning outcomes. The research method used is pre-experimental design with intact group comparison design. The research subjects were students of class XI SMA Negeri 9 Pekanbaru, in which class XI IPA4 was an experimental class and class XI IPA5 was a control class. The experimental class uses a concept attainment learning model and a control class with a conventional learning.
