Abstract

This study examines the profile of science process skills and scientific attitudes among students in Nunukan Regency. The study population includes 9th-grade students from junior high schools during the 2023/2024 school year. The research involved 243 students to evaluate science process skills and 332 students to assess scientific attitudes through questionnaires spanning 21 different schools. The research type is descriptive quantitative with the sampling technique being conducted through accidental sampling. The study administered 27 questions on electrical circuit material and a scientific attitude questionnaire with 40 statement items using a Likert scale. The results show that (1) varying levels of science process skills: observing (40%), classifying (39.4%), predicting (30.87%), planning experiments (40.6%), formulating hypotheses (40.2%), interpreting data (38.4%), implementing concepts (38.7%), measuring (37.3%), and communicating (36.2%). The average score for science process skills was 38%, falling into the low category. (2) In contrast, scientific attitude scores were higher: curiosity (71.3%), critical thinking (71.3%), respecting data/facts (63%), open-mindedness (74.1%), cooperation (68.1%), and honesty (72.2%), with an average score of 70%, falling into the high category. (3) The results of the correlation analysis indicate that H0 is rejected, and Ha is accepted. This means there is a significant relationship between scientific process skills and scientific attitude, which is weak but positive.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: Assessment of students' critical thinking skills and environmental care attitudes is crucial for science learning. This research aims to develop an essay test instrument for critical thinking and a questionnaire for environmental care attitudes, evaluating their validity through expert assessments and trials. Methodology: Utilizing the Research and Development (R&D) model by Oriondo & Dallo-Antoio (1998), the study comprises three stages: test planning, trials, and validation. A random sampling technique was employed, involving 267 students. The critical thinking instrument consists of essay questions, while the environmental care attitudes are measured using a prosocial intentions questionnaire. Main Findings: Validity results indicate a high Aiken index of 0.96 for critical thinking essays and 1.0 for the environmental care questionnaire. Reliability estimates were 0.73 for critical thinking and 0.71 for environmental attitudes, both good. The difficulty level for the critical thinking instrument was classified as medium (0.68), while the environmental care instrument was deemed difficult (1.65). Limitations include focusing solely on science subjects, trials restricted to one area, and reliance on self-reports for environmental attitudes, which may introduce bias. Novelty/Originality of this study: The novelty of this study lies in integrating critical thinking assessment with environmental care attitudes, a rare approach in previous research. In conclusion, the developed instruments effectively measure students' critical thinking skills and environmental care attitudes in science education, particularly regarding global warming.

Abstract

This study aims to measure the feasibility of interactive animated videos based on discovery learning, assisted by Adobe CC and LMS Moodle, that have been developed. The method used in this study is research and development/(R&D) with a 4D development model. The 4D development model process carried out in this study includes the definition, design, and development stages; the dissemination stage was not carried out in this study. The feasibility of this product was validated by two material experts and two media experts who have a minimum educational background of a doctorate and a minimum of 3 years of teaching experience at the University, based on the validation results using a questionnaire, the following results were obtained: a total final score of 93.3% by material experts and a total final score of 100% by media experts. After receiving the validation results from experts, the next stage is to conduct a limited test with a sample of 12 students and two science teachers. Limited testing was carried out to determine the practicality and readability of the product being developed. Based on the limited test results, a total score of 97.5% was obtained for the practicality of the product by science teachers and 100% for the readability of the product by students. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that interactive animation videos based on discovery learning, assisted by Adobe CC and LMS Moodle, meet the requirements to be implemented at the dissemination stage. The urgency in this study is the lack of learning media in the form of interactive animation videos based on discovery learning on earthquake material. This implies that the developed media can be effectively integrated into science classes to enhance students' understanding of earthquake concepts. Furthermore, the development approach used can serve as a practical framework for educators and developers to develop similar products in other science topics.
