This study presents a systematic literature review of recent research on the impact of integrated instructional approaches in strengthening critical thinking skills among prospective science teachers. Through an in-depth analysis of selected publications, the findings indicate that reflective learning strategies such as explicit rubric-based simulations, argument mapping, journaling, project-based learning, and the integration of socio-scientific contexts consistently enhance the cognitive, metacognitive, and affective dimensions of critical thinking. The review further demonstrates that emotional engagement and metacognitive awareness function as essential conditions for the effectiveness of reflective instruction. In addition, embedding local cultural contexts is shown to increase the relevance and meaningfulness of science learning. From a practical perspective, these findings imply that teacher education programs should systematically integrate reflective instructional designs, formative assessment rubrics, and culturally responsive learning tasks into their curricula. Moreover, institutions are encouraged to strengthen lecturer professional development, improve digital learning infrastructure, and adopt flexible curriculum policies to address implementation challenges such as institutional resistance and variability in student engagement. Collectively, these implications support the development of adaptive, inclusive, and context-sensitive science teacher education aligned with the demands of 21st-century learning.

This study aimed to develop an evaluative-process learning tool integrated with the conceptual-problem-based learning (CPBL) model to train students' critical thinking skills. The learning tools developed (lesson plans, textbooks, worksheets, and critical thinking test instruments) were evaluated for validity and Effectiveness in training students' critical thinking skills at the higher education level. Validity evaluation is carried out on content and construct validity aspects. This is done through a focus group discussion (FGD) mechanism involving four expert validators. Furthermore, the Effectiveness of the developed learning tools is evaluated by implementing them in the classroom. The experimental design (intact-group comparison) involved a sample group from the State Islamic University of Mataram. The experimental group was taught by evaluative-process learning tools integrated with the CPBL model, while lectures and discussions taught the control group. Critical thinking data were collected using a valid essay test instrument, and the results were analyzed. The validity test results show that all the elements that make up the learning tools in the aspect of content and construct validity have been declared valid. Furthermore, at the implementation stage in the classroom, evaluative-process learning tools integrated with the CPBL model have been effective in training students' critical thinking skills compared to teaching that relies on lectures and discussion. This Effectiveness is based on two aspects, (1) the conceptual framework of the CPBL model, which is constructed and arranged from a problem-based learning model with five learning steps, namely prior knowledge, organize, investigate, analyze, and evaluation; (2) the concept of evaluative-process which is integrated with the CPBL model. These two aspects support capacity in training students to think critically.

This study aimed to assess the validity and effectiveness of a Teaching Factory (TEFA) model based on scientific creativity in enhancing students’ soft skills and fostering sustainable entrepreneurship. The TEFA approach was validated through expert evaluations and tested through two production processes involving 15 university students. The research focused on improving soft skills such as communication, teamwork, creativity, leadership, and time management, alongside sustainable entrepreneurship skills like opportunity identification, resource utilization, and entrepreneurial action. Data were collected using observation sheets and analyzed through descriptive statistics and ANOVA to compare students' performance across the two production processes. The results showed significant improvements in students' soft skills and sustainable entrepreneurship, with the TEFA approach based on scientific creativity proving highly effective. Average soft skill scores increased from "Poor" to "Good" after the intervention, and similar improvements were observed in sustainable entrepreneurship scores. The structured pedagogical cycle employed—encompassing need identification, curriculum development, implementation, evaluation, and reflection—successfully bridged the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application in entrepreneurship education. However, a limitation of the study was its small sample size, indicating the need for further research with larger and more diverse populations. These findings suggest that the TEFA approach based on scientific creativity can be a valuable addition to university entrepreneurship programs, better preparing students for the challenges of the global business landscape.

The study aimed to describe the analytical thinking skills of science teacher candidates based on the study program and gender. This research is a descriptive quantitative study with a sample of 80 students, 20 boys and 60 girls from the Biology Education Study Program (38 students), Physics Education (13 students), and Chemistry Education (29 students). The instrument used is descriptive subjective test questions adapted to three indicators of analytical thinking skills, namely differentiating, organizing, and attributing. Analyzed descriptively and statistically. The instrument used has been declared valid with Cronbach's Alpha reliability of 0.77. The results of the study show that overall, students' analytical thinking skills are quite analytical. However, there are differences in the ability to think analytically based on the study program. In addition, there is also a difference in the ability to think analytically between female and male students, although the difference is not too significant, namely only 4.63%. Based on these findings, it is necessary to make efforts to improve the analytical thinking skills of prospective science teacher students through the development of learning programs that focus more on developing analytical thinking skills.

Strengthening Academic Literacy of FSTT Students through the Socialization of Scientific Writing Techniques This community service program aimed to strengthen the academic literacy of students of the Faculty of Science, Engineering, and Applied Sciences (FSTT) through the dissemination of scientific writing techniques. The program was based on students’ needs to improve their understanding of the basic concepts of scientific papers, writing structure, academic writing techniques, citation and references, and academic ethics. The activity was implemented in three stages: preparation, implementation, and evaluation. The preparation stage included needs identification, material development, technical coordination, and questionnaire preparation. The implementation stage was conducted face-to-face with 21 students using a transfer of knowledge approach, interactive lectures, and question-and-answer sessions. Evaluation was carried out using a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed descriptively through mean scores and percentages. The results showed that participants’ understanding of the material was in the good category, with a mean score of 3.84 and a percentage of 76.80%. The highest indicator was understanding the structure of scientific papers, while the lowest was scientific writing techniques. Participants’ responses were also in the good category, with a mean score of 3.91 and a percentage of 78.19%. The speaker’s competence received the highest rating, whereas the method and implementation aspects still require improvement. These findings indicate that structured and interactive dissemination can support the strengthening of students’ academic literacy. Future programs should include writing practice, feedback, and performance-based evaluation.
