Abstract

Learners' science literacy skills in science learning activities become an important ability for learners to face the times. The ability of learners to respond to contextual topics can show the qualifications of their science literacy skills. The research conducted aims to describe the science literacy skills of students at the Islamic Junior High School  level on environmental issues that occur around them. Through descriptive quantitative method, the researcher presents the results of students' science literacy ability in working on contextual questions based on environmental issues along with supporting and inhibiting factors in supporting learning activities. The study involved 25 students at one of the Islamic Junior High School  in Jombang. Based on the analysis of the profile of students' science literacy skills at one of the Islamic Junior High School  in Jombang, it was found that the general average score of science literacy skills of grade 7 students was 44.72 in the low category. There are several factors that cause the low science literacy skills of these students, including interest in learning, learning strategies, and learning facilities that still need to be optimised.         Keywords: science literacy, environmental, contextual issue. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.23960/jpmipa/v25i4.pp1648-1664

Abstract

Incorporating ethnoscience into lessons through the ethnoscience-students’ worksheet (ESW) is one method to improve student interest in science learning while introducing them to the local culture. However, no research was reported the effects of ESW on students' responses and the factors that influence ESW implementation in science learning. In order to better understand how students learn through ESW, this study investigated the relationship between ethnoscience context, science learning, and the implementation of students’ worksheets. Seventy-two students participated in the survey after they studied ethnoscience learning through ESW. Students’ responses are more influenced by science learning. In addition, the ethnoscience-integrated students’ worksheets (SW) variable indirectly affects students’ responses. Additionally, ESW affects students' responses more significantly than science learning and ethnoscience. This research provides insightful implications for educators on planning, designing, and practicing ESW to enhance students’ problem-solving motivation and academic achievement. Furthermore, to contribute significantly to future researchers, further research employed the structural equation model through covariance analysis, also known as confirmatory factor analysis (CFA).

Abstract

The importance of science literacy skills in the 21st century today can help a person have the knowledge to solve problems in everyday life. Science literacy in society has the potential to help answer unsolved problems related to socio-scientific issue (SSI). Through a teamwork-orientated learning model, this can stimulate students' science literacy skills. The purpose of this study was to stimulate students with the numbered heads together cooperative model with the SSI approach to improve their science literacy skills. The research was conducted by involving 36 students from science education department. The research used quantitative method. The results showed that there were differences before and after learning by using the numbered heads together cooperative model. The results tested by N-Gain analysis showed that the use of cooperative learning model numbered heads together based on SSI can improve students' science literacy skills with an N-Gain score of 0.45 in the medium category
