Optimizing Learning Through Contextual SDGs-Based Card Match Index Media

Human Resources and employment are one of the issues related to achieving one of the SDGs goals, namely SDGs 4 and SDGs 8 in the field of sustainable education and Decent Work and Economic Growth. The study process is a series of interactive communicative activities of educators and students that take place in a study situation to obtain results according to the objectives that have been set. The aim of this research is to create stimulation to foster interest in learning, be contextual, able to foster motivation and be able to overcome various learning obstacles in accounting subjects. The purpose of implementing this Index Card Match model is to build group cooperation and mutual giving appreciation and correction of learning. This research uses a mix method, namely a combination of the paired T test and model uses the 4-D Thiagarajan method. The instrument for collecting research data uses an open questionnaire that is validated by expert review. The research results show that overall students have high learning motivation towards the accounting material studied in class when using contextual index card matching and there is a significant difference between using a card match index and not using a card match index. Based on the research results, it shows that learning using the index card match type active learning method has an effect on learning activities and achievement compared to learning using the talking stick method. This implies that the use of the index card match type active learning model can provide opportunities for students to increase learning activities and student achievement. This research aims to test and prove that all parties are aware that educational success is not only determined by the teacher concerned but also by innovative new learning strategies and media.
