Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of brain-based learning on students' motivation in learning the electric circuit. The participants come from one of International school in Bandung, Indonesia. The method used in this research was quasi-experiment which used two classes with one control group and one experimental group. The control class consists of 23 students and the experimental class consists of 26 students. In the experimental class used brain-based learning and the control class used lecture-based learning. The results of this research show that the average gain of the experimental class was 0.033, while the control group was -0.038. The results showed that the motivation in experimental class was statistically different with the control class. Based on this results showed that brain-based learning can be an alternative tool to improve students' motivation.
