Abstract

Students' critical thinking has been a significant concern within education development efforts, and this needs to be addressed and promoted by teachers. However, most teachers barely promote this skill, especially related to Islamic education, which leads to more challenges for students in learning Islam. Therefore, encouraging innovation and strategies to develop students' critical thinking in learning Islam is necessary. This research aims to analyze the implementation of the neuroscientific approach and how it can develop students' critical thinking skills. This research used a Quasi-Experimental method with a pretest-posttest design. Eighth-grade students at SMPN 1 Talangpadang Tanggamus were the population of this research. Only two classes, Class VIII.1 (experimental class) and Class VIII.3 (control class) were used as the research sample chosen using simple random sampling. The result of the research showed that the neuroscientific approach has a significant influence on improving students' critical thinking skills. However, the degree of the influence was varied across the data. Moreover, this research also showed that the implementation of the neuroscientific approach in learning should be explored and expanded to promote students' critical thinking skills.

Abstract

Green water in fish ponds, caused by algal blooms, harbors a diverse array of microalgae species and is commonly observed in aquaculture settings. This resource-rich water source holds promise for research focused on microalgae cultivation at a laboratory scale, serving as a valuable starter sample for such investigations. Preliminary observations suggested that the predominant species in such green water habitat belonged to the genus Micractinium Fresenius 1858. An effective isolation technique of this microalgae species is necessary, not only to reduce the contamination of the rotifers but also to purify the starter cultures. Although automated microalgae isolation techniques have been developed recently, such as using Flow Cytometry via Cell Sorting, traditional isolation techniques are still relevant. One of the traditional microalgae isolation techniques that has been widely used for many years is the dilution technique. This study aims to isolate Micractinium pusillum Fresenius from fish ponds using the modified dilution technique: SDE (sedimentation, dilution, and enrichment). The dilution results showed that rotifer contamination was reduced at a dilution of 10─3 and the density of microalgae was also reduced. At this dilution level, only one type of microalgae was observed, i.e., Micractinium pusillum Fresenius. which was then cultured for enrichment using a simple photobioreactor. This 10-3 culture was observed to grow well during the enrichment stage for 10 days. These results indicate that the SDE isolation technique can be effectively used to isolate microalgae from green water, especially for Micractinium pusillum which is the most abundant microalgae species in green water in this study.

Abstract

Twenty-first-century education requires students to develop higher-order thinking skills (HOTS) to address increasingly complex challenges. This study aimed to develop a Quizizz-assisted HOTS test instrument for Grade 10 students studying quantities and measurements and evaluate its feasibility, validity, reliability, and student responses. The study employed a research and development approach using the ADDIE model: Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. Data were collected through expert validation sheets and student response questionnaires. Validation by two subject-matter experts, two assessment experts, and two media experts yielded feasibility scores of 83.3%, 95.5%, and 92.2%, respectively, with an overall score of approximately 90%, indicating high feasibility. Construct analysis showed that 30 four-tier multiple-choice items and 20 essay items met the established validity criteria. Reliability coefficients were 0.94 and 0.84, respectively, indicating very high reliability. Student responses reached approximately 84%, reflecting positive acceptance of the instrument. The implications of this study highlight the potential of the Quizizz-assisted instrument to support physics educators in assessing students’ analytical, evaluative, and creative thinking skills and diagnosing conceptual understanding and misconceptions. These findings may inform targeted instructional interventions and improvements in physics teaching and learning.
