The Effectiveness Of Photovoice-Based Jigsaw Learning Model In Improving Student Learning Outcomes In Islamic Cultural History (SKI) Subjects

The purpose of this study is to answer the question: Is the Photovoice-based Jigsaw learning model effective in improving student learning outcomes in Islamic Cultural History (SKI) subjects? The background of this study is the low learning outcomes of students due to the dominance of lecture methods that do not actively involve students. The integration of the Jigsaw model and Photovoice media offers a collaborative and visually reflective approach that has not been widely applied in SKI learning, making it a novelty in this study. This study uses a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design of the posttest-only control group type. The sample consists of class 7A (experimental class) and 7D (control class) at MTs N 4 Demak. Data analysis using an independent t-test shows a significant difference between the two groups (t = 6.222; p = 0.000). The average score of the experimental class was higher than that of the control class, with an effect size of 1.69, indicating a significant impact. These results prove that the Photovoice-based Jigsaw learning model is effective in improving student learning outcomes and contributes to strengthening the theory of collaborative learning and visual media in the context of religious education.
