Application Of Stad Learning Method By Using Picture Methods In Interactive Learning Can Improve Results Of Student Science

To learn a lesson well, we need to hear, see, ask questions about it, and discuss it with others. Not only that, teachers need to "do it", that is to describe something in their own way, to show their example, to try to practice their skills and to do tasks that demand the knowledge they have gained. Problems to be studied in this research are: Does using the application of STAD learning method using image method can improve science learning outcomes of students of class VIII SMPN 1 Coastal Ranah? Steps taken in using STAD method?. This research was conducted in Class VIII SMP Negeri 1 Coastal Ranah in 2016. As a place used to obtain the desired data.
