Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the improvement of student's science process skills with the application of visual gaining knowledge media in science subjects. The research method used is an experiment with a quantitative approach. The research design employed in this study is true experiment. The study's target population were all students at SMP Negeri 11 Banda Aceh, while the instance selected in this research were 56 pupils making use of the non-simple random sampling method by means of proportional sampling. The instrument used was 20 items to measure science process skills with multiple choice diagnostic tests. The outcomes of research on science process skills in the experimental class for each indicator were obtained: observing by 31.76%, classifying by 39.99%, interpreting by 62.31%, predicting by 53.42%, asking questions by 27.27%, formulating hypotheses by 21.74%, designing experiments by 34.95%, using tools and materials by 25.83%, applying concepts by 15.46%, and communicating by 21.72%. The study's findings allow for the conclusion that the highest indicator of students' science process skills is in the interpretation indicator, but the least significant indication is in the communication indicator. Therefore, the implementation of visual learning media in science subjects can have a positive impact on improving students science process skills.

Abstract

One aspect of process science skills that learners need to have is the ability to interpret. The ability to interpret graphs in students is currently considered difficult and still belongs to the very low category. This study aims to analyze the relationship between mathematical understanding and the learning styles of students in terms of their ability to interpret graphs. This type of research is descriptive-quantitative. The research sample consisted of class XI students at SMA Negeri 4 Takengon, which amounted to 67 students. The research data was collected using learning style-type questionnaires, multiple-choice questions on linear program material, and reaction rate material. The ability to interpret the graphs of students at SMA Negeri 4 Takengon is on the "medium" criterion, while the students' mathematical understanding is on the "very high" criterion. Students with visual learning style types are more dominant and have an average score of mathematical understanding and the ability to interpret graphs higher than students with auditorial and kinesthetic learning styles. The result of the correlation coefficient r = 0.912 shows a significant positive relationship between mathematical understanding and the ability to interpret graphs with a "high" and unidirectional interpretation

Abstract

This research is motivated by students' science process skills which are still in the low category. Based on the initial observations made there were students who still had difficulty in conducting experiments. This research aims to determine the increase in the ability to observe, identify and define variables through the comic-assisted inquiry learning model. This research was conducted on class XI MIPA 2 students at SMAN 2 Banda Aceh involving 32 students. The research design used in this study isone grup pretest-posttest design. Data collection techniques through tests (pretest andposttest) and student response. The pretest and posttest questions in this research were prepared referring to three indicators of science process skills, namely, observing, identifying and defining variables. After the data is collected, the data is analyzed using the gain test. The results of the research showed that there was an increase in students' science process skills in the aspect of observing by 0.54 in the medium category, identifying by 0.68 in the medium category and defining variables by 0.72 in the high category. Based on the results of this research, it can be concluded that the ability to observe, identify and define variables can be improved through comic-assisted inquiry learning

Abstract

Scientific literacy is a crucial competency in 21st-century education, encompassing students’ ability to understand scientific concepts, apply them in real-life contexts, and make evidence-based decisions. Despite various curriculum reforms, assessments such as PISA 2022 reveal that Indonesian students’ scientific literacy remains below the international average. Prior studies have applied Project-Based Learning (PjBL) and STEM approaches separately, yet few have explicitly integrated these with the Engineering Design Process (EDP) and local environmental contexts to systematically enhance scientific literacy. Addressing this gap, this quasi-experimental study examines the effectiveness of a PjBL-STEM model, contextualized by a waterwheel project utilizing local river flow, in fostering students’ deep conceptual learning and scientific literacy on the topic of Work and Energy. The study involved two purposively selected 11th-grade classes (N=60) at SMA Negeri 1 Samalanga: an experimental class taught with the PjBL-STEM-EDP approach and a control class taught conventionally. Instruments were validated (Cronbach’s alpha=0.926) and data were analyzed using t-tests, N-Gain, and effect size (Cohen’s d=2.25). Results showed the experimental group achieved significantly higher scientific literacy (mean post-test = 84.83 vs. control = 65.67; N-Gain = 0.83 vs. 0.49; t(58) = -8.71, p < 0.001, 95% CI [-23.6, -14.7]), with the strongest improvement in designing scientific investigations. The novelty of this study lies in aligning PjBL syntax, EDP stages, and OECD scientific literacy indicators within a local-context project. While deep conceptual learning (DCL) is used here as a theoretical framing rather than a measured outcome, the findings highlight the potential of contextual, interdisciplinary learning to foster scientific literacy, creativity, and critical thinking, supporting the goals of the Merdeka Curriculum and Education for Sustainable Development.
