Abstract

This study aims to improve students' cognitive learning outcomes in Indonesian language through the application of the Discovery Learning model with the aid of visual media. This study was conducted as Classroom Action Research (CAR) consisting of two cycles involving students of class VB at SDN Bakalan Krajan 1, Malang City, in the 2024/2025 academic year. The study was conducted collaboratively between the researcher, the class teacher, and the supervising lecturer. Data collection techniques included observation, learning achievement tests, and documentation. Data analysis used qualitative and quantitative methods. The results showed that the average learning outcome increased from 73 in the pre-cycle to 74 in the first cycle, and significantly increased to 88 in the second cycle. This improvement indicates that the use of the Discovery Learning model with visual media is effective in helping students understand expository text material. Visual media supports critical thinking processes and active student engagement in learning. These findings indicate that the combination of an active learning model and engaging media can significantly improve student learning outcomes, particularly in the cognitive aspects of Indonesian language.
