This study aimed to find out what experiential learning model by using mind map could increase the understanding of concepts of fungi materials at the tenth-grade students of senior high school. This study was quasi-experiment research that used pre-test and post-test control group design. The population of the research was all of the tenth-grade students at SMAN 1 Kalasan. The technique of getting sample used cluster random sampling technique where X MIPA 4 class became an experiment class, and X MIPA 5 class became a control class. The used instruments in this research contained the observation sheet about the implementation of learning by using experiment learning model and evaluation sheet about the students’ understanding of concepts. The data of the research were analyzed by using t-test (independent sample t-test). The results showed that the significant value (2-tailed) was 0.000 (< 0.05). It concluded that there was a difference of understanding concept between class experiment and control class. It was proved that the learning process through experiential learning model by using mind map could increase the students’ understanding of concepts.
