Based on the calculation results, it was obtained that the percentage of learning outcomes obtained by students while using the pair checks type of cooperative learning model obtained t count = -2,5 = 2,5 (absolute value) and t table = 1,79 with the degree of truth (dk) = n-1, n = 12 then (dk) = 11 and a significant rate of 5% = 0,05. So is rejected because t count > t table. So it can be concluded that there is an increase in student learning outcomes by applying the pair checks cooperative learning model to class VIII students SMP Pertiwi 2 Padang
