The results showed that the student learning activity indicator was categorized as very high (81.72%); while the six indicators which were considered as high criteria were students interest in learning and learning process (71.33%), students attention in learning and learning process (63.67%), study preparation (75,22%), students opinions in the exam activity (61.89%), the impact teacherâs technique and the tactics of learning to the students (85.50%), and student learning outcome (77.17%).
