This research is an experimental study that aims to determine the differences in science learning outcomes after applying the Number Head Together (NHT) learning model to 8th grade students at Makassar Frater Junior High School. This research is experimental using a pre-post test design. The population in this study were all students in grade VIII of SMP Frater Makassar, while the sample used purposive sampling technique totaling 29 students who were taught with the Number Head Together learning model.
