3. Findings and Discussion 3.1 Data Description The data obtained in this study consisted of data from the pre-test and post-test results, in the control class and the
experimental class. The results of the pre-test are used as data to measure the initial ability to understand concepts
(learning outcomes) of students, and the post test results are used to determine the final ability level of students after
carrying out learning activities in terms of understanding concepts (learning outcomes) in the control class and
experimental class. The data that the researchers described above are attached to each test and will be used to test the
research hypotheses that have been formulated previously. The results of the data description analysis are.

Based on the table of pre-test scores, it shows that the average value of the control class is 42.5, and the guided
inquiry class assisted by puzzle media is 41.06. The pre-test values for the control class and the experimental class have
almost the same average value so that there is no difference in the abilities of the three classes.

Based on the table of post test scores, it shows that the average score for the control class is 63.5. and the guided
inquiry class with the help of puzzle media was 82.48. In the post test scores for the control class and the experimental
class there are differences, there is a significant average value with a Minimum Completeness Criterion of 65, so the
control class has an average below the Minimum Completeness Criteria and the experimental class an average value
above the Minimum Completeness Criteria. Based on the data above, a bar chart can be made for the results of the pre-
test and post-test for each class. The diagram of the results of the descriptive analysis are:
