Presenting effective learning is one of the things that teachers need to pay attention to. One of the factors that is a success in the learning process is by using the right learning media. Currently, high school students are very close to technology and social media. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the application of social media-based learning media, namely TikTok Videos, on the economic learning outcomes of high school students compared to direct tutoring. This study uses a quasi-experimental approach to determine the differences in learning outcomes in the experimental class taught using TikTok media and the control class with the direct tutoring method. The population in this study were 4 classes of class XI IPS students of Panjura Malang High School. The sample in this study was 2 classes, namely the experimental class and the control class. The learning outcomes showed that there was a difference in the average learning outcomes of students in the experimental class and the control class. Based on these results, it shows that students are more interested in learning with technology-based media and social media, this is because currently teenagers are very close to technology and social media in their daily lives so that their high learning motivation will improve students' economic learning outcomes
