Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the impact of a guided inquiry learning model supplemented by a virtual laboratory on students' cognitive learning outcomes. The study was motivated by low cognitive achievement and limited laboratory facilities in schools. A quantitative approach was employed using a quasi-experimental pretest–posttest control group design. The sample comprised two Grade X classes at SMA Negeri 2 Labuapi, selected through cluster random sampling. Research instruments included a cognitive learning outcomes test and an observation sheet related to cognitive learning outcomes. Data were analyzed using the normalized gain (N-Gain) test and ANCOVA. The results showed that the N-Gain of the experimental class (0.50) was higher than that of the control class (0.36), and the ANCOVA produced a significance value of 0.000 (< 0.05), indicating a significant effect of the learning model on improving cognitive learning outcomes. These findings suggest that guided Inquiry assisted by a virtual laboratory is more effective than conventional instruction in developing cognitive outcomes, including the ability to analyze information, construct arguments, and draw logical conclusions. This model is relevant for 21st-century science learning, especially in schools with limited laboratory facilities.

Abstract

This community service activity aimed to empower students through bouquet-making training in order to enhance creative skills, independence, and entrepreneurial interest from an early age. The program was implemented with 35 ninth-grade junior high school students and involved 3 accompanying teachers. The methods employed included demonstration, hands-on practice, intensive mentoring, and product evaluation. The outputs of the activity consisted of student-made bouquet products and a simple bouquet-making guide intended for further learning activities at school. The results showed that 90% of students were able to create bouquets independently with good quality, while several students demonstrated improved creativity through design variations and material combinations. Questionnaire responses indicated that 100% of participants were highly satisfied with the activity, and 80% expressed interest in continuing bouquet-making at home as a potential small-scale business opportunity. These findings suggest that creative, product-based skill training not only improves students’ technical competence and creativity but also effectively fosters entrepreneurial interest at an early stage.
