Abstract

Learning is the process of changing behavior to gain knowledge so that it can gain values, knowledge, and practical skills as an effort to become human. Humanistic learning theory is a theory that focuses on human behavior so that it can humanize humans. This theory assumes that students are considered successful if they can understand the environment and themselves. In practice, humanistic theory is very concerned with the content being studied rather than the learning process itself. This learning theory talks more about educational concepts to form the human being aspired to and about the learning process in the most ideal form. In its application, humanistic theory tends to direct students to think inductively, gain experience, and requires active student involvement in their learning. Science learning in elementary school should be done by providing direct experience to students to foster curiosity naturally, so that it can help students develop their abilities so that students can improve student learning outcomes.
