However, the F-test results showed F_count (1.1) < F_table (3.1) at a 5% significance level, indicating no significant relationship between reading literacy, spatial intelligence, and learning outcomes among MAN 1 Banda Aceh students.
The Effect of the Think Pair Share (TPS) Cooperative Learning Model on Students’ Geography Learning Outcomes
The main problem in Geography learning at SMA Gajah Mada Bandar Lampung lies in the low learning outcomes of students, which have not yet reached the Learning Objective Attainment Criteria (KKTP). The learning process is still dominated by lecture methods, resulting in low student engagement, limited interaction, and a lack of optimal understanding of geographic concepts. This condition highlights the need for innovative learning models that can improve student participation and comprehension. This study aims to examine the differences in Geography learning outcomes before and after the implementation of the Think Pair Share (TPS) cooperative learning model, to analyze the influence of TPS on learning outcomes, and to investigate differences based on students’ gender and learning involvement. The research employed a quantitative approach with a One-Group Pretest-Posttest design. The sample consisted of 35 students from Grade X-3 of SMA Gajah Mada Bandar Lampung. Research instruments included a learning achievement test and a student involvement questionnaire. Data were analyzed using t-test, two-way ANOVA, and simple linear regression. The findings revealed a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores after the implementation of TPS. Moreover, the TPS cooperative learning model had a positive and significant effect on students’ learning outcomes. The analysis also showed differences in learning outcomes based on gender, where gender was found to be a more dominant factor than learning involvement. Therefore, the TPS model is proven to be an effective alternative strategy to enhance students’ conceptual understanding and academic achievement in Geography learning.

GROWING STUDENT INTEREST IN READING AND READINESS IN LEARNING THROUGH HABIT ACTIVITIES IN CLASS X IPS SMA NEGERI 3 RANGKASBITUNG
*]:pointer-events-auto scroll-mt-[calc(var(--header-height)+min(200px,max(70px,20svh)))]" dir="auto" tabindex="-1" data-turn-id="869cd563-8c0b-466e-923e-9fe501d27753" data-testid="conversation-turn-2" data-scroll-anchor="true" data-turn="assistant"> The main problem found in the students of SMA Negeri 3 Rangkasbitung is the low interest and reading behavior that affects students' readiness to participate in the learning process. In general, the problem-solving strategy used is to direct students to certain behaviors, namely fond of reading through habituation activities. The development of interest and good reading habits should begin as early as possible in childhood. Parents, especially mothers, and teachers, especially Playgroup, Kindergarten, and Elementary School teachers, have a very decisive role in these development efforts. The development of interest and reading habits should start at home. Meanwhile, schools are obliged to foster reading interests and habits that have been developed at home. Support the compulsory reading program at a certain time outside school activities, because reading is a very basic activity in a series of learning activities. Interest and good reading habits are impossible to have in a short time. Its development takes a relatively long time, and must be in line with educational developments that occur in society. The habituation process is expected to have a positive impact on students during the learning process. The learning process can run optimally, if students have readiness to learn, one of which is that students first have reference material through reading activities. The literacy movement is more developed towards subjects, meaning that books read by students are according to the subjects studied by students. Each subject requires students to finish reading several reference books within a certain period of time.
