Abstract

This research is a preliminary study regarding the description of teacher-led learning, students scientific literacy abilities, and the need for developing Ethno-STEAM integrated e-media on pollution material to increase students literacy. This research used the descriptive method. The subjects of this research were 64 students in class X and 4 science teachers at SMK Takhassus Al Qur’an Wonosobo. The data collection instruments used were questionnaires, interview guides, and scientific literacy test questions. Based on the results of interviews with teachers, it shows that students’ scientific literacy abilities are still lacking. It can be seen from the results of the students’ scientific literacy test, which showed a percentage of 39%. On the indicator identifying keywords to gain scientific information, most of the students answered correctly with a percentage of 71%, while on the indicator recognizing scientific inquiry features, only 42% of students could answer correctly due to a lack of scientific literacy and student knowledge about technology use. Based on the results of the questionnaire analysis, Ethno-STEAM integrated e-media to increase students’ scientific literacy as an alternative learning medium on pollution material is needed to be developed with a percentage of 84%. The use of Ethno-STEAM integrated e-media is expected to increase students’ understanding, provide meaningful learning for students through the application of ethnoscience, and improve students’ scientific literacy skills.

Abstract

Problems that are often experienced in learning Environment Pollution material is the lack of participation of learners in the formation his knowledge, this is due to the learning provided only limited to theory without utilizing laboratory facilities for activities practicum. In addition, the teaching materials used are less able to hook material with contextual phenomena in everyday life, so that lack of opportunities for learners to conduct investigations. This research aims to develop practicum worksheet on Project Based Learning on environmental pollution material. The research method used is Research and Development (R&D). The preparation of practicum worksheet uses the ADDIE model, but in this study only focuses on the ADD (Analysis, Design, and Development) stage. Practicum worksheet design that has been prepared before being tested is measured for quality through validation activities by material experts and media experts. Validation was carried out by 2 material experts and 2 media experts, in this case lecturers from PGRI Semarang University. The final average score of validation results by material experts was 92.36% and media experts was 90.33%. This value included in the very valid category, so that the practicum worksheet that has been prepared is suitable for use in learning Environmental Pollution material.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is for investigating whether constructive character-based problem solving can enhance students learning in physics subject. This study utilized quasi experiment by research design was equivalent control group design. The sample of this study was 28 students of grade IX which were divided into two groups. The first group was experimental class with 14 students who receive constructive character-based problem-solving learning. The second group was experimental class with 14 students who receive conventional learning with constructive character. The results obtained that based on students’ learning outcomes in the experimental class, the percentage value is 88.4% higher than the control class which is only 56.9%. Meanwhile for the constructivist character in the experimental class is also higher by 80% and in the control class by 68.5%. For the value of hypothesis test which has been conducted is obtained the tcount value is 2.247 > ttable 1.67. This means that problem solving learning based on constructivist characters has an impact on students learning outcomes in physics subject. With the result that it can be concluded that problem solving learning based on constructivist character is more effective to be implemented for enhancing students learning outcomes in physic subject.

Abstract

This research aims to increase students’ learning motivation by developing a Problem-Based Learning learning design using the flipped classroom model. This research uses an approach that is part of non-experimental quantitative research. The sampling technique used purposive sampling. This research was measured using a learning motivation observation sheet in the form of a motivation rubric. Increased motivation was analysed based on a questionnaire based on the ARCS rubric. This research shows increased motivation in the learning process with the flipped classroom model and problem-based learning design. At the attention stage, there was an increase in student motivation by 13% from the first meeting to the second meeting and a rise of 6% from the second meeting to the third meeting. In the relevance aspect, there was an increase of 26% from meeting one to meeting two and 3% from meeting two to meeting three. Then, part of confidence, from the first to the second meeting, there was an increase of 9%, and from the second to the third meeting, it increased by 10%. Finally, in the aspect of satisfaction from meeting one to meeting two, there was an increase of 9%. Moreover, from meeting two to meeting three, there was an increase of 12%. It was concluded that the average increase in student motivation from the first lesson to the third lesson was 3% to 13%. In the future, further attention is needed on the affective and psychomotor aspects.

Abstract

The main issue in the process of Catholic Religious Education (PAK) learning at St. Antonius Bangun Mulia Catholic School in Medan is the suboptimal achievement of student learning outcomes. This is caused by the frequent use of lectures and assignments by PAK teachers. The dominance of such methods leads to boredom and disinterest among students in participating in the learning process. Another issue is the lack of creativity among PAK teachers in finding and implementing alternative teaching methods that can motivate students to engage in PAK learning. In response to these situations, the AMOS method can be used as an alternative method for PAK learning with the aim of improving student learning outcomes. The research subjects in this study were 22 fourth-grade students. The data for this research were obtained from observing the activities of the students and conducting final tests in each cycle. The research data were analyzed descriptively and qualitatively. The results of the study show that the application of the AMOS method can improve student learning outcomes. In the pre-cycle, the percentage of students who completed their learning was 18.18%, while those who did not complete it were 81.82%. In cycle 1, 94.46% of students completed their learning, while 5.54% did not. In cycle 2, 100% of students completed their learning. Based on these research findings, it can be concluded that the use of the AMOS method can improve the learning achievement of fourth-grade students at St. Antonius Bangun Mulia Catholic Elementary School in Medan.

Abstract

Based on the facts on the ground, Indonesian students have low scientific literacy skills. This is shown by the 2018 PISA data which explains that the score of Indonesian students is 396 below the PISA average score of 500 and is ranked 70 out of 78 countries. Therefore, teachers must improve students’ scientific literacy skills so that students’ understanding of science can be trained so that they can keep up with the times. The purpose of this study was to improve the scientific literacy skills of class VII students through the development of ethnoscience-based student worksheets. The method used is a combined quantitative and qualitative method, through validation methods by two expert lecturers and analyzed descriptively quantitativel, with a 3D development model (define, design, and develop). The results showed that the validation of student worksheets was in the very valid category with a percentage of 85%. Based on these results, the worksheets of students based on ethnoscience are appropriate to be used as learning media to improve students’ scientific literacy skills.
