Theories 1. Experiential learning as a central principle expressed as four stage cycle of learning in which immediate or concrete experiences provide a basis for observations and reflection. The four stage cycle are a. Concrete Experiences b. Reflective Observation 3. Abstract Observation 4.Active Experimentation. (David Kolb2006) 2. Experiential Science Educational : The real core of teaching : No child left behind . (Jack Hassard 2008 ) 3. Interest is mostly understood as emerges from individual interaction with his or her environment. Interest maybe transitory or may provide the basis of a long lasting interest. (Hidi and Renninger 2006) 4. Interest in science is associated with intrinsic Title Interest and Learning Achievement in Experiential Learning Setting Thesis Statement Problem Hypothesis How can The use of Experiential experiential learning method learning method persuade the will persuade the pupils interest in pupils interest in science? science by 60% Specific Questions
1. What is the level

of interest of the pupils before and after the conduct of the experiment? 2. What is the performance of the pupils in the pretest and posttest based on the science competencies? 3. How significant is the difference between the pretest and posttest result? 4. To what extent does the interest gain influence the learning gains of the students? 5. How does the use of experiential learning method significantly affect the learning? 6. How effective is the experiential learning method based on the scores of the pupils

attitudes and experience rather than stemming from the importance of science for society.(Kim and Song 2009) Tool of Interest 1. Workbased learning 2. Simulation 3. Distance virtual simulation 4. Field trips. Therefore, Everybody has the capacity to learn for as long as the environment provides experiences that are participative interactive and the significance of experiential learning method will motivate pupils interest in science.
