Abstract:
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of using logan avenue
problem solving heuristic learning model on students’ reading achievement. This
research was conducted at SMA Negeri 21 Medan, Jl. Kramat Indah Kecamatan
Medan Denai, Kota Medan, Sumatera Utara in the academic year 2019/2020. An
experimental research design in the descriptive quantitative method applied in this
research. By using simple random sampling two classes, X IPA 1 and X IPS 1
were chosen as the sample. The experimental class, X IPS 1 with 34 students was
taught by using logan avenue problem solving heuristic learning model, and 34
students in X IPA 1 as the control class was taught by using conventional model.
The data obtain were analyzed by using t- test formula. The result of data analysis
showed that ( 2.27) was greater than was (1.998) at α = 0.05
and dk = 66. It mean that based on the fact final hypothesis that H was rejected
and H was accepted. It concluded that there was a significant effect of using logan
avenue problem solving heuristic learning model on students’ reading
achievement.
