Abstract

The problem that occured in SMK Muhammadiyah 3 Yogyakarta is that Arabic cannot be understood well by students due to the conventional techniques and textbook based learning. This study aimed to develop Arabic learning media based on neuroscience in SMK Muhammadiyah 3 Yogyakarta. Neuroscience as the learning media has the goal to improve the students’ learning outcomes. The data that were obtained from documents and interview. The results of the classification of reputable National and International journals, as well as interviews, were conducted with 20 students and 2 teachers. The results of the study prove that Arabic learning media which based on neuroscience could improve the students’ learning outcomes in learning Arabic with an average score was 77.58/B+. The combination of the attractive learning media and neuroscience theory as an approach that could stimulate students. The analysis of learning media continued based on neuroscience to the stages of product design, development, evaluation to revision, resulting in data that student learning outcomes were well arranged. The weakness of neuroscience as the Arabic learning media was on the results of the students’ population data, only a few students did not understand in improving students' Arabic learning outcomes. Therefore, the development of neuroscience as Arabic learning media required further research, the implications of developing Arabic learning media based on neuroscience could provide creativity to teachers and help the students in learning Arabic, especially in SMK Muhammadiyah 3 Yogyakarta.
