Abstract

This study aims to analyze the critical thinking skills of students in the Biology Education Study Program at Pattimura University in solving Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) questions related to modern biotechnology. A descriptive research method was employed, utilizing a test instrument and unstructured interviews to identify factors influencing student performance. The measured critical thinking indicators include clarification, assessment, inference, and strategy. The analysis results indicate that the average student score was 72.5, categorized as "good." Students demonstrated strong abilities in clarification (78), assessment (81), and strategy (70) but encountered difficulties in inference (61). The score variation, with a standard deviation of 11.95, reflects differences in students' proficiency levels. Factors affecting these results include academic background, experience in scientific argumentation, and access to learning resources. The findings highlight the need to strengthen inference skills through discussion-based learning, case studies, and problem-based learning strategies. Enhancing critical thinking skills is expected to better prepare students for challenges in the educational field and enable them to guide learners in developing analytical thinking abilities.

Abstract

Fisika kuantum merupakan salah satu kategori dari ilmu fisika yang memerlukan pemahaman konsep yang kuat. Pemahaman konsep menjadi fondasi penting bagi mahasiswa dalam memecahkan berbagai fenomena alam, membantu menyelesaikan persoalan kuantitatif dan membangun kerangka berpikir logis dan konsisten. Oleh karena itu, analisis tingkat pemahaman konsep mahasiswa diperlukan sebagai dasar dalam merancang strategi pembelajaran yang sesuai dan efektif. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis tingkat pemahaman konsep fisika pada materi gejala kuantum dari mahasiswa Pendidikan fisika FKIP Universitas Jambi. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode deskriptif dengan teknik purposive sampling yang melibatkan 36 mahasiswa dan menggunakan instrument tes diagnostik two- tier dari Quantum Physics Conceptual Survey (QPCS). Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa pemahaman konsep mahasiswa terhadap materi gejala kuantum sangat beragam baik paham konsep, miskonsepsi, dan tidak paham konsep. Miskonsepsi muncul akibat dari kesalahan konseptual dari pengetahuan awal mahasiswa, sedangkan ketidakpahaman konsep dicerminkan oleh keterbatasan dalam menghubungkan konsep- konsep dasar dan prinsip dasar dengan permasalahan. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan informasi mengenai tingkat pemahaman konsep mahasiswa dan dapat mengkolaborasikan pendekatan konseptual dengan strategi pembelajaran yang interaktif sehingga mengurangi miskonsepsi dan meningkatakan pemahaman konsep.

Abstract

Strengthening critical thinking and collaboration skills has become an urgent need in 21st-century education; however, these skills remain relatively low among students. In fact, both are essential for navigating complex information, solving real-world problems, and working effectively in diverse teams. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the service-learning model in enhancing the critical thinking and collaboration skills of tenth-grade students, as well as to investigate the correlation between these two skills in the context of a virus-related biology topic. A quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent pretest-posttest control group was employed. The sample consisted of two classes (30 students each), selected using cluster sampling. Critical thinking skills were assessed through tests, while collaboration skills were measured using observation sheets. Data were analyzed using independent sample t-tests and Pearson correlation. The results showed that the service-learning model was effective in improving both critical thinking and collaboration skills, and there was a significant positive correlation between the two. The novelty of this study lies in the integration of the service-learning model into biology instruction on the topic of viruses, aiming to foster 21st-century skills through meaningful, experience-based learning approaches.

Abstract

In the context of rapid digital transformation, the integration of the TPACK (Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge) framework has become increasingly vital for educators—especially those teaching biology—to facilitate the incorporation of technology into instruction and promote deeper student comprehension of complex topics. TPACK comprises three foundational areas: Technological Knowledge (TK), Pedagogical Knowledge (PK), and Content Knowledge (CK), as well as their interrelated domains: Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK), Technological Content Knowledge (TCK), and Technological Pedagogical Knowledge (TPK). This study investigates the extent to which high school biology teachers implement the TPACK components. Employing a descriptive research design with a test-based approach, the study targets a hypothetical population encompassing all senior high school biology teachers in Sragen Regency—past, present, and prospective. A convenience sampling technique was applied, selecting 17 currently active biology teachers from 13 senior high schools across the region. Data collection utilized a structured test instrument designed to evaluate teachers’ comprehension of TPACK concepts. Results indicate that the participants generally possess a moderate level of knowledge regarding the application of TPACK in teaching.

Abstract

Modern learning focuses on active student engagement through thinking, creativity, and collaboration, supported by PjBL and AI to suit the digital era. This study explores the impact of AI-assisted project-based learning (PjBL) on students' analytical thinking, creative thinking, and collaboration skills in biology education, focusing on the circulatory system. Using a quasi-experimental design with 80 eleventh-grade students (40 experimental, 40 control) from SMAN 1 Magelang, Indonesia, the research employed MANOVA and ANOVA to analyze posttest scores. Results revealed significant improvements in the experimental group, with mean differences of 5.67 (analytical thinking, *p* = 0.001), 4.12 (creative thinking, *p* = 0.010), and 3.89 (collaboration, *p* = 0.015). AI tools enhanced analytical skills through data visualization and feedback, fostered creativity via simulations and iterative problem-solving, and supported collaboration via AI-driven task allocation and communication platforms. However, collaboration gains were more modest, underscoring the enduring role of interpersonal dynamics. The study concludes that integrating AI into PjBL effectively cultivates higher-order thinking skills, though its implementation requires balancing technological and human-centric pedagogical approaches. These findings advocate for AI as a transformative tool in biology education, provided ethical and accessibility considerations are addressed.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the problem-solving abilities of pre-service biology teachers in addressing coastal environmental issues through a Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) approach. The research employed a descriptive method, using tests and interviews as data collection techniques. The HOTS-based test was administered to students enrolled in the Environmental Education course at Pattimura University. The test instrument was developed based on five problem-solving indicators: problem identification, problem analysis, formulation of alternative solutions, evaluation of solutions, and decision-making including follow-up planning. In addition to the test, unstructured interviews were conducted to explore students' perceptions of the questions and the challenges they encountered. The results showed an average student score of 74.0, with the highest score in problem identification (84), followed by problem analysis (76), solution evaluation (74), alternative solution formulation (72), and the lowest in decision-making and follow-up actions (64). These findings suggest that while students demonstrated strong abilities in identifying and analyzing coastal environmental problems, their capacity to design practical and implementable solutions requires further development. The outcomes of this study provide a foundation for developing a more context-based curriculum in Ambon that addresses local coastal environmental issues.
