The Effect of Learning Model Based on Character Education Through Multicultural Scientific Approach and Thinking Style on Learning Outcomes of Local History Lessons

This research aims to determine learning outcomes of local history lessons
taught with learning models based on character education with a multicultural
scientific approach higher than learning outcomes of local history lessons taught by the
expository learning model, knowing learning outcomes of local history lessons that have
a higher abstract sequential thinking style than students who have concrete sequential
thinking styles and knowing the interaction between learning models and students'
sequential thinking style on learning outcomes of local history lessons. The research
method using quasi experiment with 2 x 2 factorial design, data analysis techniques using
ANOVA. The results of research obtained showed: (1) the average learning outcomes of
local history lessons for students taught with the character-based learning model of the
character of the multicultural scientific approach was higher than lessons with an
expository learning model; (2) the average results of learning outcomes of local history
in students with abstract sequential thinking styles are higher than in concrete sequential
thinking styles; and (3) There’s an interaction between the characterbasedlearningmodelofthemulticulturalscientificapproachandthesequentialthinkingstyle.
