Abstract

This study aimed to produce a learning cycle 7e model of peer learning settings to improve students' understanding of concepts. This study utilized research and development procedures from Plomp. The study results showed that the learning cycle 7e model of peer learning settings was valid, practical, and effective for improving students' conceptual understanding. Validity was obtained from the validation test results of learning model experts with 96.1%. In addition, the learning device expert assessed a percentage of 91% for lesson plans and a percentage of 90% for student worksheets. Furthermore, the practicality of the model tested in small groups obtained 92.7%, while the student activity with a percentage of 91.7%.
