Abstract

Abstract: The developmental research provides invaluable experience, that is, the production of learning materials which were optimal in making the students learn by inquiring, increasing the teachers’ motivation to conduct the instruction, and eventually increasing the students’ achievement. The result of the experiment showed that: (1) there was a difference in students’ achievement between students taught with inquiry strategies and those taught using conventional strategy; (2) there was a difference in students’ achievement between the students of high level of academic ability and those of low academic ability level; and (3) there was an interaction effect between learning strategies and students’ academic ability toward their achievement.
