This research aimed to describe students learning interest through the implementation of the Understanding by Design (UbD) approach and to determine whether there was a significant difference in learning interest between students taught using UbD and those taught using conventional learning. The study employed a quasi-experimental method with a nonequivalent post-test only control group design involving two classes of 7th grade students at SMPN 1 Rengat. The experimental class was taught using the UbD approach, while the control class received conventional instruction. Descriptive analysis showed that the experimental class achieved a higher average interest score categorized as very high, compared to the control class in the high category. All indicators of learning interest such as enjoyment, attention, participation, and curiosity of student were higher in the UbD class. Inferential analysis using an independent sample t-test confirmed that there was a statistically significant difference in students learning interest between the two groups. These results suggest that the UbD approach effectively enhances students interest in learning, especially in science topics such as Earth and the Solar System, and can be considered as an alternative teaching strategy to increase student engagement in the classroom.

Conclusion

The study demonstrates that the Understanding by Design (UbD) approach effectively increases student learning interest in Earth and Solar System material.Students in the experimental class, utilizing the UbD approach, exhibited significantly higher levels of interest compared to those in the control class receiving conventional instruction.This finding underscores the potential of the UbD approach as a valuable alternative instructional strategy for enhancing student engagement and improving learning outcomes in science education.

Future Research

Berdasarkan hasil penelitian ini, terdapat beberapa saran penelitian lanjutan yang dapat dilakukan untuk memperdalam pemahaman mengenai efektivitas pendekatan Understanding by Design (UbD) dalam pembelajaran sains. Pertama, penelitian lebih lanjut perlu dilakukan dengan melibatkan lebih banyak peserta didik dari berbagai latar belakang dan karakteristik untuk menguji generalisasi temuan penelitian ini. Kedua, penelitian dapat difokuskan pada perbandingan efektivitas pendekatan UbD dengan pendekatan pembelajaran inovatif lainnya, seperti pembelajaran berbasis proyek atau pembelajaran berbasis masalah, untuk mengidentifikasi strategi pembelajaran yang paling optimal dalam meningkatkan minat dan hasil belajar siswa. Ketiga, penelitian kualitatif dapat dilakukan untuk menggali lebih dalam pengalaman belajar siswa dan guru dalam implementasi pendekatan UbD, termasuk tantangan dan solusi yang dihadapi, serta faktor-faktor yang mendukung keberhasilan implementasi. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan wawasan yang lebih komprehensif mengenai bagaimana pendekatan UbD dapat dioptimalkan untuk meningkatkan kualitas pembelajaran sains di sekolah-sekolah.
