Abstract

This research aims to determine the impact of the group investigation learning model on student learning outcomes in the archival management element of the office management subject. A quasi-experimental design was applied involving two classes: the first class (experimental group, group investigation model) and the second class (control group, direct instruction), with a total of 70 students selected through saturated sampling. Data were collected through tests, observations, interviews, and documentation. In addition, validity and reliability tests were conducted before data analysis using SPSS version 22. Comparative analysis through independent sample t-test revealed that t-count (3.268) > t-table (2.002) with a significance value of 0.002 < 0.05, indicating a significant positive influence of the group investigation model on student learning outcomes. Students in the experimental group showed higher gain scores compared to those in the control group. These findings indicate that the group investigation model is effective in enhancing mastery of procedural and conceptual competencies in archives management, demonstrating its suitability for vocational learning contexts that require inquiry, collaboration, and problem-solving
