Abstract

Energy as a socioscientific issue (SSI) demands the ability to think scientifically, argue rationally, and act ethically in complex real-world context. Future science teachers, particularly those from Generation Z, need to be equipped with these competencies to respond critically and responsibly to such challenges. This study aimed to analyze the quality of argumentation and decision-making among student groups in addressing energy-related socioscientific issues through collaborative discussion. A qualitative descriptive design with content analysis was employed, involving 15 student groups of second semester pre-service science teachers enrolled in matter and energy course across three different classes. Argumentation was analyzed using the Toulmin Argument Pattern (TAP), while decision-making was assessed through five aspects: criteria, evidence, perspectives, consequences, and justification. Each component was evaluated using a four-level rubric to determine the quality of students’ responses. The findings revealed that both skills were at a moderate level, with mean scores of 1.93 for argumentation and 2.21 for decision-making. Students were generally able to formulate claims, however, they often lacked strong scientific justification and consideration of alternative viewpoints. Their decisions did not consistently reflect deep reasoning or align with the quality of their argumentation. These findings underscore the importance of integrating socioscientific issues-based instruction into science teacher education to strengthen scientific reasoning, ethical judgment, and evidence-based decision-making.

Abstract

Writing skills are essential for students to develop from an early age. Writing not only serves as a medium for expressing ideas, opinions, or thoughts, but also functions as a tool to train critical, systematic, and logical thinking. A lack of interest and skill in writing can have negative consequences. Students who are not accustomed to writing may struggle when asked to prepare reports, write essays, or face written exams that require structured argumentation and explanation. Training in academic writing is crucial, especially for junior high school students. This community service activity was carried out in three stages: preparation, implementation, and evaluation. Questionnaire results showed that the academic writing training received a positive response, particularly in terms of enjoyment, usefulness, and student motivation. However, challenges remain in terms of material comprehension, active participation, and self-confidence, which should be addressed through more practical and interactive learning methods in future programs.

Abstract

Pengembangan sikap positif terhadap sains pada calon guru IPA SD merupakan fondasi krusial bagi kualitas pendidikan sains di masa depan, mengingat peran guru dalam membentuk minat dan literasi ilmiah siswa. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi profil sikap mahasiswa calon guru IPA SD terhadap sains. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan deskriptif kuantitatif dengan melibatkan 72mahasiswa calon guru IPA SD (36 dari Sulawesi Barat dan 36 dari Sulawesi Selatan) yang telah memprogramkan mata kuliah Konsep Dasar IPA SD pada tahun akademik 2024/2025. Data dikumpulkan melalui Kuesioner Sikap Terhadap Sains (Attitude Towards Science Questionnaire) dan dianalisis menggunakan statistik deskriptif (rata-rata, standar deviasi, dan persentase kategori). Hasil penelitianmenunjukkan bahwa mahasiswa calon guru IPA SD di kedua wilayah secara keseluruhan memiliki profil sikap yang dominan positif terhadap sains, ditunjukkan oleh rata-rata skor yang identik (2.95) dan tidak ditemukannya sikap negatif atau sangat negatif. Sikap positif ini tercermin dalam dimensi afektif (kesenangan, kepercayaan diri, dan rendahnya kecemasan/kesulitan) serta dimensi kognitif (apresiasi tinggi terhadap nilai sains). Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa kurikulum dan metode pembelajaran saat  ini efektif menumbuhkan sikap positif, namun perlu pengembangan strategi yang lebih inklusif untuk  konsistensi partisipasi. Hasil penelitian ini menjadi dasar bagi program pengembangan profesional guru  dan harapan bagi peningkatan minat sains siswa. Sebagai studi deskriptif, penelitian ini membuka jalan  bagi studi lanjutan untuk mengidentifikasi faktor-faktor spesifik yang membentuk variasi sikap.
