Abstract

In the era of the Merdeka Curriculum, which is integrated with technological developments, requires a science teacher to carry out his duties professionally. One part of the teacher's professionalism is understanding learning theory. Behavioristic learning theory, which tends to be teacher-centered, is still often used by teachers even though the curriculum has changed because the application of this theory in learning is still relevant and works well. One of the results of research conducted by Yuliani (2020) entitled “Development of E-Book Learning Media with a Behavioristic Approach to Science Subjects for Class IX Students of SMP 24 Banjarmasin” states that the behavioristic approach shows a positive influence on improving student achievement. The results of analyzing student learning using the N-Gain test are 0.8 (included in the high classification). The results of this study indicate that the behavioristic flow in the era of the independent curriculum is able to increase learning motivation even though the application of behavioristic flow tends to be teacher-centered. The urgency of behavioristic flow in the implementation of learning is to maximize the role of teachers, especially in improving student discipline.

Abstract

Scientific argumentation skills are an essential foundation in science learning, as they help students think critically, express opinions scientifically, and make decisions based on evidence. Unfortunately, this skill has not yet been optimally developed among junior high school students, mainly due to limited opportunities to practise in a supportive classroom environment. This study aims to identify the need for developing Student Worksheets (SW) based on Problem-Based Learning (PBL) integrated with Local Socio-Scientific Issues (LSSI), as an effort to enhance students' scientific argumentation skills. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, this study involved an initial argumentation skills test and a needs survey distributed to science teachers. The results showed that most students still fall into the low category regarding scientific argumentation skills, and many teachers do not yet have teaching tools to support these skills. However, there is significant potential for integrating the SSI-based approach into science education, mainly since teachers are already accustomed to using active methods in topics such as environmental pollution. These findings are an essential foundation for designing contextual and relevant worksheets, enabling students to learn science and become critical thinkers and caring citizens engaged with the issues around them.
