Abstract

This type of research was classroom action research with the method used was the CTL (Contextual Teaching Learning) method. The subjects of the research were students of class XII IPS SMA Negeri 10 Pekanbaru. The aim of the research was to increase the activities and student learning outcomes carried out by two cycles. Before conducting the learning process, a pre-cycle test was administered with the total score (2390); cycle I (2885), and cycle II (3070). For the average score of pre-cycle test was 68.29, then the first cycle increased to 78.92, and the second cycle increased to 87.71.
