Argumentation is an important activity in scientific exploration which has been agreed as a major component in science education. Quality argumentation skills are formed with the understanding of concepts owned by students. The current low level of argumentation skills is caused by the learning process. Application of guided inquiry learning with the STEM approach is expected to provide space to practice arguments based on the results of the constructs of students' concepts during learning. The results of the study stated that differences in initial abilities, the application of guided inquiry with the STEM approach affect the concepts understanding and argumentation skills of students. Also there is no interaction, between models and learning approaches and initial abilities towards understanding concepts and argumentation skills.
