The average pre-test and post-test scores were 71.15 and 86.62 respectively. The results of hypothesis testing using t-test showed that the t-count for learning interest was 10.668 (t-table = 1.69), while for pre-test and post-test, the t-count was 5.492 (t-table = 1.69). The correlation test resulted in an r-count of 0.620 (r-table = 0.349), which indicates a positive and significant relationship between learning interest and learning outcomes.The conclusion of this study is that the application of the power of two type cooperative learning model has a positive and significant influence on students' interest in learning and learning outcomes. The findings provide practical implications for teachers and educational institutions in applying learning methods that can effectively improve students' interest and learning outcomes.
