Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of the learning by doing method on students' problem-solving abilities on the material of motion and force in the Merdeka curriculum. The learning-by-doing method was chosen because it emphasizes learning through direct experience, which is expected to increase students' active involvement and problem-solving skills. This study used a quasi-experimental design with the Pretest-Posttest Nonequivalent Control Group Design approach, involving two classes of junior high school students, namely the experimental class using the learning by doing method and the control class using the lecture method. The research instruments consisted of a problem-solving ability test in essay form, observation sheets, and student response questionnaires. The results showed that the learning by doing method had a significant effect on improving students' problem-solving abilities according to the independent sample t-test, producing a significance value of 0.01 (<0.05), which indicated that H0 was rejected and H1 was accepted.

Abstract

Peningkatan taraf hidup manusia dapat meningkat beriringan dengan peningkatan pendidikan dengan berbekal pengetahuan dan keterampilan. Kemampuan Berpikir Kritis merupakan Kompetensi kecakapan abad 21 yang penting untuk dipahami dan diintegrasikan dalam proses pembelajaran, termasuk dalam pembelajaran Ilmu Pengetahuan Alam (IPA), yang masih tergolong rendah dimiliki peserta didik. Rendahnya kemampuan tersebut dapat menjadi penghalang peserta didik dalam memahami konsep Pembelajaran IPA dan kemampuan pemecahan masalah serta pengambilan keputusan menjadi masalah. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis pengaruh model pembelajaran PjBL-STEM terhadap kemampuan berpikir kritis peserta didik kelas VIII pada materi Struktur Bumi dan Perkembangannya. Metode Quasy Experiment dilaksanakan pada penelitian ini terhadap kelas VIII pada salah satu SMP N di kota Serang, Desain penelitian ini menggunakan 2 kelompok sejumlah 40 peserta didik pada setiap kelompok atau kelas yang ditetapkan secara acak yang kemudian dilakukan Pretest untuk mengekspolasi kodisi pengetahuan awal pada kelompok eksperimen dan kelompok kontrol. Kemudian diberikan perlakuan yang berbeda dimana Kelompok eksperimen akan menggunakan model pembelajaran Project Based Learning (PjBL) - Science, Technology, Engineering and Matematics (STEM), kelompok kontrol memakai model pembelajaran Problem Based Learning (PBL). Instrumen tes sebanyak 10 soal yang telah melalui uji Validasi dan Reliabilitas untuk mengukur kemampuan berpikir kritis peserta didik. Pengujian Hipotesis pada Uji Independent Sample T-Test memperoleh hasil terdapat pengaruh yang signifikan untuk model pembelajaran PjBL-STEM dalam menstimulus kemampuan berpikir kritis peserta didik kelas VIII. Perolehan data hasil perhitungan dengan nilai Sig (2-tailed) yaitu 0,023 0.05. Disimpulkan bahwa H0 ditolak dan H1 diterima yang berarti terdapat pengaruh model pembelajaran PjBL-STEM terhadap kemampuan berpikir kritis peserta didik, dimana model pembelajaran PjBL-STEM mampu meningkatkan kemampuan peserta didik dalam berpikir secara kritis.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of the Science, Environment, Technology, and Society (SETS) learning model using HOTS Question Cards on junior high school students' critical thinking skills on the theme "Let's Be Prepared for Disasters." A quasi-experiment was used, using a non-equivalent control group design. Class VII A and class VII B, with 36 students in each class, constituted the population and sample. The sample was drawn using a purposive sampling technique. The instrument used was a critical thinking essay question sheet and an observation sheet. A t-test was used for data analysis. The results of the data analysis obtained a significant result (2-tailed) of 0.000 (0.000 <0.05). The conclusion was that H0 was rejected and Ha was accepted. This indicates that the Science, Environment, Technology, and Society (SETS) learning model using HOTS Question Cards influences junior high school students' critical thinking skills on the theme "Let's Be Prepared for Disasters."

Abstract

The rapid growth of bioinformatics has significantly influenced both the biological sciences and education, underscoring the importance of equipping future biology educators with relevant analytical and computational skills. This study aimed to compare the bioinformatics skills and biological knowledge of biology education students with and without experience in bioinformatics courses. A comparative descriptive design was employed, involving 49 students: 26 with no prior experience in bioinformatics and 23 with experience in bioinformatics. Data were collected using an instrument consisting of three opinion-based items and three cognitive test items. Qualitative data were analyzed thematically and visualized through diagrams, while cognitive performance was analyzed using descriptive statistics. The outcomes show that students who took the bioinformatics course demonstrated a broader use of tools, more reflective thinking about their own learning, and encountered more difficult problems, along with greater gain in scores on biology knowledge (70.29%) compared to students who did not take the course (63.63%). These findings support the need to include bioinformatics in the biology education program to better prepare pre-service biology teachers with the science and technology advancements in the future

Abstract

This study aimed to develop and validate the quality of a multiple-choice instrument for measuring fifth-grade elementary students' understanding of kinetic-to-electrical energy conversion concepts within a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) framework. The research employed a Design and Development Research (DDR) approach with systematic instrument development procedures comprising: literature review and blueprint development, item construction, expert validation, field testing with 28 fifth-grade students, and comprehensive psychometric analysis. The instrument consists of 20 multiple-choice items covering three knowledge dimensions: conceptual (5 items), procedural (10 items), and applicative (5 items). Content validity was established through expert review by three science education specialists, yielding a Content Validity Index (CVI) of 0.87. Item analysis revealed difficulty indices ranging from 0.35 to 0.85 (predominantly moderate difficulty) and discrimination indices ranging from 0.30 to 0.75 (good to excellent discrimination). Reliability analysis using Cronbach's alpha produced a coefficient of 0.82, indicating high internal consistency suitable for elementary school assessment contexts. The instrument demonstrates satisfactory psychometric properties aligned with standards for elementary science assessment and effectively integrates STEAM pedagogical approaches.
