INTRODUCTION Education has a very strong influence on the development of a nation because education has always been a major concern in order to advance the lives of the next generation of a nation itself. Education is also a long-term resource investment that has strategic value for the sustainability of a nation's Therefore, almost all countries place education as a top priority. The current era of globalization demands high-quality human resources. For this reason, in creating quality human resources, one of the foremost ways is through good education and maximizing the potential of students to become competent human resources (Astuti, 2. The development of education in Indonesia has entered a new phase in which various technologies have been developed to improve the quality and results of education. The technology used is a modification of existing technology or is the latest or most recent invention. This effort is a breakthrough that is expected to improve student learning outcomes. The efforts that have been made so far only use an educator as the main player, relying on printed book teaching materials as a tool to improve student learning outcomes. Various kinds of efforts have shown good results, but this has not provided maximum results. Therefore, various methods are used, starting with curriculum changes, learning methods, and learning technology. It is estimated that in 2019, the number of users of onlinebased learning videos will increase by 77% compared to 2014, when it was only 59%. By using learning videos, it is hoped that each educator can be more creative in making an attractive display of the learning process because it is supported by the appearance and attractiveness of the video, which is more easily accepted or understood by students (Khairani et al. According to Mega . , several factors contribute to students' learning difficulties in the material structure and function of plant tissues, including the realm of understanding plant tissue structure, function, and the relationship between plant tissue structure and function. With varying levels Educenter : Jurnal Ilmiah Pendidikan Vol 1 No 11 November 2022 of difficulty in the realms of understanding the function of plant tissue, understanding the structure of plant tissue, and understanding the relationship between the structure and function of plant tissue, there are more students who score below KKM for the same learning outcomes as those who score at or above KKM. Based on the observations I have made. Onan Ganjang 1 Public High School is a school that is domiciled in Humbang Hasundutan district. Onan Ganjang sub-district, and Onan Ganjang village. This school was founded in 1985 and has received A accreditation since 2017. According to my interview with a biology subject teacher, namely Mrs. Fronica Damanik. , on Saturday. July 27, 2021, at night at the mother's residence, it was revealed that during this pandemic the learning process was less effective because students were required to study on their own without direct guidance from the teacher as usual when offline. He also revealed that media limitations are also a deficiency in the smoothness and success of learning. some of the media or teaching materials used by him are still lacking in increasing interest and learning outcomes. Examples of teaching materials used are pictures taken from books and sent to students to study and worksheets used to guide students in independent learning. also said that the average test score of students also did not reach the value expected by the school. Based on this background, the authors raised a research title entitled "Effectiveness of MultimediaBased Biology Learning on the Subject Material of Structure and Function of Tissue-Constructing Cells in Plants and Animals at SMA Negeri 1 Onan Ganjang T. 2021/2022. RESEARCH METHODS This research was conducted at Onan Ganjang 1 Public High School, which is located at Jalan Pakkat-DolokSangul. Onan Ganjang District. Humbang Hasundutan Regency. North Sumatra. This research is quasi-experimental and aims to determine the effect of something imposed on the subject, namely students. The intended influence is the effectiveness of multimedia-based biology learning on the structure and function of plant tissues. The population in this study were all students of Class X MIPA SMA Negeri 1 Onan Ganjang, which consisted of three classes majoring in MIPA with a total of 91 students from the three classes. Samples taken by random sampling, namely taking sample members from a population that is carried out randomly without regard to the existing strata in the population. The students who were sampled were students in classes XI IPA 1 and XI IPA 2, totaling 60 students. The research procedure uses the technique of analyzing the data that has been collected by reviewing the research proposal to check the plan for presenting the data and carrying out the statistical analysis that has been determined previously. The pretest-posttest nonequivalent control group design is used in this study. In this research design, observations of quasi-experimental subjects were carried out before the implementation of the experimental manipulation, which is called the pre-test. After the learning was carried out, observations were made again on the experimental subject, which was called the post-test. Data collection techniques in this study were in the form of learning outcomes tests and The data needed in this study consisted of two learning outcomes tests in the form of multiple choice questions and a questionnaire to determine the effectiveness of multimedia as teaching The purpose of doing a learning achievement test is to measure student learning outcomes based on the material structure and function of plant tissues. The test results will be used as a reference for analyzing the effectiveness of multimedia as a teaching material on the structure and function of plant tissue material, and the questionnaire will be used as a reference for determining the effectiveness of multimedia as a teaching material on the structure and function of plant tissue material. Tests are arranged based on the level of difficulty of cognitive abilities, starting with C-1 . C-2 . C-3 . C-4 . C-5 . , and C-6 . The number of tests is 25 questions in the form of multiple choicequestions,s which are arranged according to indicators from the syllabus of the biology teacher in class XI IPA at SMA Negeri 1 Onan Ganjang. Before the test questions are used to retrieve research data, the questionnaire is first validated with thevalidator, and, then validation is carried out for class XII to find out how many questions are appropriate and not in accordance with the provisions. Then,n for the questionnaire, the correct answer was given a score of 1. ,) and the wrong answer was given ascore of 0e zero. Multimedia is said to be used effectively in the learning process if the N-Gain value for the experimental clas or the /NGain for the control class is equal to 1 or more than 1. Then the value of the questionnaire has a Journal Homepage : https://jurnal. id/index. php/educenter/index Educenter : Jurnal Ilmiah Pendidikan Vol 1 No 11 November 2022 percentage value of more than 50 for students and40Ae1000 for teachers. Effectiveness responsee RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Research Result The data obtained during the research process were pretest-posttest scores and response scores from the questionnaire given to teachers and students. The formula analysis technique will then be used to analyze the data. Based on the research that has been carried out, the results of the research are obtained in the form of the pretest of the experimental class and the control class and the posttest values of the experimental class and the control class. Then this value is entered into the N-Gain formula to find out the increase between the pretest and posttest values in the experimental class and the control Based on the values in table 1, it can be concluded that the average value of the pretest experimental class and control class did not differ significantly from the average value of the experimental class . and control . However, the posttest scores for the experimental class and the control class differ significantly from the experimental class . and the control class .
