Abstract

Understanding biological concepts is essential for integrating nature and technology into daily life. A strong grasp of these concepts enables students to develop and comprehend more advanced ideas. However, students sometimes hold interpretations that differ from scientifically accepted concepts, leading to misconceptions. The aim of this study was to identify whether misconceptions exist among students and to determine which sub-concepts in the reproductive system are most affected. Using the Certainty of Response Index (CRI) method, the study was conducted with 11th-grade students from SMAN 12 Padang. The data revealed that students had misconceptions in several sub-concepts. The highest misconception rate was in the sub-concept of menstruation at 35%, while the lowest was in the sub-concept of gamet formation at 20%. These misconceptions likely arise from students forming their own interpretations based on textbooks and teachers' explanations.Keywords: human reproduction, misconceptions, ovulation, meiosis, menstrual cycle.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the impact of Argument-Driven Inquiry (ADI)-based biology instruction on students' argumentation skills in the context of biodiversity. The research is classified as a quasi-experimental study using a pretest-posttest nonequivalent control group design. The independent variable in this study is the implementation of the Argument-Driven Inquiry (ADI) instructional model. The population of this study comprises all tenth-grade students at SMAN 5 Padang. The sample consists of two classes, with Class X IPA 1 selected as the experimental group and Class X IPA 2 as the control group. Data on students' argumentation skills were collected using essay-type tests. The data analysis techniques employed include the Mann-Whitney U test, Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test, Independent Sample t-test, and Effect Size test. The results indicate that the use of the Argument-Driven Inquiry (ADI) instructional model positively influences the improvement of students' argumentation skills on the topic of biodiversity. This implies that students successfully achieved the targeted learning objectives using the ADI model.
