Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the implementation of differentiated instruction in Chemistry subject for Grade 10 students across senior high schools in Gorontalo City using Stake’s Countenance Model. The evaluation focused on three key components: antecedent (lesson planning), transaction (instructional implementation), and outcome (student learning results). Data were collected through the analysis of lesson plans and teaching modules, classroom observations, teacher interviews, and assessments of student learning outcomes. The analysis employed both congruence and contingency approaches. The findings indicate that both lesson planning and instructional implementation fall into the "moderate" category, with average scores of 69.82% and 67.52%, respectively, while student learning outcomes were categorized as "good" with an average score of 68.89%. The contingency analysis revealed a misalignment between antecedent and transaction with the outcome, suggesting that student achievement was more strongly influenced by administrative targets (KKTP) rather than the effectiveness of differentiated instruction strategies. This study recommends the need for pedagogical training focused on strengthening conceptual understanding of differentiation, designing adaptive instructional materials, and applying authentic assessment practices to promote inclusive and responsive learning tailored to diverse student needs.

Abstract

Despite the importance of understanding reaction rate concepts in chemistry, students often struggle with abstract content and low engagement in traditional learning settings. Conventional teaching methods tend to emphasize rote memorization, limiting opportunities for critical thinking and problem-solving. This study investigated the influence of ChatGPT-assisted Problem-Based Learning (PBL) on students’ learning outcomes in reaction rate material. A quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent control group was employed, involving two Class XI groups at SMA Negeri 1 Kabila: XI A as the experimental group (using ChatGPT-assisted PBL) and XI B as the control group (receiving conventional instruction). Learning outcomes were measured using an essay test aligned with cognitive indicators. Results showed greater improvement in the experimental group, with a posttest average of 78.68 compared to 69.23 in the control group. Independent sample t-test analysis revealed a significant difference between groups (p = 0.001 < 0.05), and the N-Gain score indicated a higher improvement category in the experimental class. These findings suggest that integrating ChatGPT into PBL enhances students’ understanding of reaction rate concepts and supports more effective learning, highlighting the potential of AI-assisted strategies in chemistry education.

Abstract

Students’ higher-order thinking skills in chemistry remain low due to the dominance of conventional teaching methods. This study aimed to investigate the effect of the CUPS (Conceptual Understanding Procedures) learning model on students’ higher-order thinking skills in the topic of basic laws of chemistry. Using a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group, two classes of 28 students each from SMAN 1 Suwawa were selected as the experimental (CUPS-based learning) and control (conventional learning) groups. Data were analyzed using independent sample t-test. Results showed a greater improvement in the experimental class (pretest = 61, posttest = 79) compared to the control class (pretest = 39, posttest = 64). A significant difference was found between the groups (p = 0.001 < 0.05), leading to the rejection of the null hypothesis. These findings indicate that the CUPS learning model positively enhances students’ higher-order thinking skills, suggesting its potential for improving chemistry education

Abstract

The objective of this research is to investigate the influence of the Project-Based Learning (PjBL) model, when integrated with the STEM approach, on students’ collaborative abilities in the topic of atomic structure. The study is motivated by the persistent issue of low collaboration levels among chemistry learners, particularly when dealing with abstract subject matter. Employing a quantitative methodology with a quasi-experimental design—specifically the Non-Equivalent Control Group Design—the research was conducted with two tenth-grade classes at SMA Negeri 1 Suwawa, designating one as the experimental group and the other as the control group. Data were gathered through observation sheets that measured five aspects of collaboration: cooperation, responsibility, communication, adaptability, and compromise. The findings revealed a notable enhancement in collaborative skills within the experimental class following the application of the STEM-integrated PjBL model. The average final observation score for this group reached 76%, surpassing the control group’s 61%. The N-Gain score for the experimental group fell within the medium category (0.48), whereas the control group’s score was classified as low (0.17). Improvements were recorded across all collaboration indicators. Overall, the results suggest that the STEM-integrated PjBL model is effective in fostering collaboration skills and can be recommended as an alternative instructional approach for other chemistry topics to advance 21st-century skill development.
