Abstract

Purpose of the Study: This research aimed to identify and analyze the outcomes of the DISKAPROD program, specifically focusing on assessing the effectiveness and quality of instruments used to measure students' basic process skills in schools. The study also sought to determine teacher perceptions regarding the program's impact on improving student learning outcomes. Methodology: A descriptive quantitative method was applied. The study population consisted of all teachers at the Al-Hidayah Foundation Kebon IX Muaro Jambi, with 21 teachers selected via purposive sampling. Data collection was conducted using questionnaires and interviews, while data analysis involved descriptive statistical tests to evaluate the teachers’ perceptions and responses to the program. Main Findings: The findings revealed strong teacher support for the DISKAPROD program. A significant 57.1% of the teachers expressed agreement with its implementation, and 76.1% provided a positive response to the program’s impact. These results suggest widespread approval and recognition of the program’s effectiveness in enhancing the measurement of student process skills, indicating the potential for broader adoption. Novelty/Originality of this Study: This study introduces a fresh approach by highlighting the critical role of teacher-developed assessment tools in accurately measuring student learning outcomes. The integration of the DISKAPROD program into the curriculum is presented as a novel and effective method for improving science education, particularly at the Mts level. By emphasizing the practical application of assessment instruments, this research contributes to ongoing efforts to refine educational practices and foster student skill development in scientific inquiry.

Abstract

Purpose of the Study: This study aims to analyze the impact of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model on the development of students’ responsibility character in Chemistry education, with a specific focus on the challenging topic of atomic structure among 11th-grade high school students. Amid increasing concerns about character education in STEM subjects, this study seeks to fill the gap by exploring how active learning models influence affective outcomes alongside cognitive achievement. Methodology: A mixed-methods explanatory design was employed, incorporating a quasi-experimental approach with pretest-posttest control groups. Quantitative data were collected through self-assessment questionnaires, peer evaluations, and teacher observation sheets, while qualitative insights were gathered via semi-structured interviews and thematic analysis of student reflections. The triangulation of data sources provided a comprehensive view of how PBL implementation affects student responsibility. Main Findings: The findings revealed that students in the experimental group demonstrated significant improvements in their responsibility character compared to the control group. Higher posttest scores reflected positive behavioral changes in engagement, discipline, and task accountability during Chemistry learning activities. Qualitative data further supported that PBL encouraged students to take ownership of their learning process, collaborate effectively, and complete tasks with greater autonomy and diligence. Novelty/Originality of this Study: This research offers a novel perspective by applying PBL not only as a cognitive learning strategy but also as a tool for character development in complex Chemistry topics. It advances the understanding of integrative pedagogical models that simultaneously nurture academic proficiency and essential life skills, particularly responsibility, in secondary science education.
