Abstract

Creative thinking and problem-solving skills are needed to face the 21st century of 4.0 industrial revolution. Improving the quality of human resources to face the era of the industrial revolution 4.0 must be developed in education. Biology as one of the subjects in high school, especially in plant growth and development matters, allows to develop creative thinking and problem-solving skills because in it there is a student project on plant growth and development. It takes the right instrument to measure the achievement of creative thinking skills and problem solving skills in Biology learning, especially on the topic of plant growth and development. Two instrument questions have been developed, namely the instrument for creative thinking skills and problem solving skills. The development of this instrument was carried out through the stages of Research and Development Borg and Gall 1983. It produced 10 essay questions measuring creative thinking skills and 8 questions measuring problem solving skills. The question gets very decent expert validation criteria with a score of 91% - 97%. The results of the validation test based on the Pearson Product Moment formula show that the ten items of creative thinking skills are valid with a significance level of 0.05. The reliability test of the two instruments has a result of 0.82, above Cronbach's Alpha coefficient, which is reliable for creative thinking skills instruments. Meanwhile, the instrument of problem solving skills showed very reliable results with Cronbach's Alpha value of 0.95.

Abstract

Learning biology requires complete knowledge in understanding it, as well as in fungi. Lack of understanding of a concept, difficulty in finding relationships between concepts, and lack of teachers’ understanding are the main causes of misconceptions which can be represented through mental models. This study aims to analyze students' mental models of fungi through drawing and writing tests (DW), concept maps, interviews, and questionnaires. Using descriptive analysis, researchers use qualitative analysis and interpretation to support the quantitative results. A total of 30 students of grade 10 were given a test. The results showed that the level of students' mental models on the fungi structure was at the level of D3 W3 (46.43%) or wrong/irrelevant answers and fungi reproductive was the level of D3 W2 (17.85%) or partially correct drawing and irrelevant writing. On concept maps, as many as 60.71% of students were at emergent level and the other students were at the transitional level. Most of the answers in the interviews showed agreement with the results shown in the quantitative tests, while the questionnaires indicated the learning experiences and difficulties that students encountered in learning the functions. The conclusion of this study shows that the mental model of students on fungi is still not close to the mental model of experts.

Abstract

Biological literacy is the individual's ability to determine the prior knowledge to understand the terms, concepts, procedural, benefits, and relationships of biological sciences in life. This study aims to measure students' biological literacy skills. This study approach was conducted descriptively, with grades, levels, and material indicators utilized to assess biological literacy skills. The population in this study was students from grade X Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Baitul Qurro Islamic Senior High School, with a sample size of 44 students drawn from the overall population. The instrument employed was a multiple-choice with up to 15 items about viruses related concepts. The data were analyzed descriptively. The results of this study revealed that 50% of students have low biology literacy skills. The highest percentage of students' biological literacy skills was found in indicator 4 (interpreting the role of viruses in life), 61%, while the lowest was in indicator 3 (analyzing virus replication), with 42%. The percentage of students' literacy skills in each level of biological literacy was highest at the structural level, with 58%, while the lowest was at the nominal level, with 44%. The low level of student biological literacy indicates that research is needed to find the right strategy to improve biological literacy skills in learning.
