Abstract

Biology education at the secondary school level adopts a scientific approach that emphasizes critical, analytical, and selective thinking skills. Practicum activities, particularly microscope use, are essential components in developing students"™ technical and analytical abilities. However, laboratory utilization at SMA Negeri 1 Kubu has not been optimal. This study aims to describe students"™ knowledge of microscopes and their usage as a basis for improving learning strategies and laboratory management. A descriptive qualitative method was employed using a questionnaire covering four main aspects: the name of the microscope, its function, its components, and how to operate it. The results showed that while all students could correctly identify the name of the microscope, their understanding of its function, components, and operation remained limited. Therefore, it is recommended that teachers increase the frequency of practicum sessions, provide more structured guidance, and apply experiential learning approaches. The implications of this study indicate that enhancing students"™ understanding of microscope use requires effective laboratory management and the implementation of more active and systematic learning strategies to improve students"™ practical competencies and biology learning outcomes.

Abstract

The utilization of the biology laboratory at SMA Negeri 1 Rasau has not been optimal, particularly in microscope practice, which plays a crucial role in developing students’ observational skills. This study aims to explore students’ knowledge of microscopes and their usage, with the goal of informing improvements in instructional strategies and laboratory management. A descriptive qualitative method was employed, using a questionnaire focused on four main aspects: the name of the microscope, its function, its parts, and how to operate it. The findings showed that although all students were able to correctly identify the microscope's name, their understanding of its function, structure, and operational procedures remained limited. These results highlight the need to improve both conceptual and practical comprehension through experiential, hands-on learning approaches. It is recommended that schools increase the frequency of laboratory practice, provide more structured guidance, and adapt instruction to address the areas where students show the most misunderstanding.
