Abstract

The low of scientific attitude and the usage of lecture method are the primary issues. This study employs cooperative multimodels method with Smart Tree on the topic of global warming to overcome the problems. This study aims to know the improvement of student’s scientific attitude, description of scientific attitude improvement, and to know the response of student’s attitude toward cooperative multimodels with Smart Tree. Samples for this study are students of VIIA & B SMPN 12 Semarang. Based on the result of the study, can be obtained that N-Gain from experiment class is 0.58 categorized as medium, while for control class is 0.3 categorized as low. From the result can be concluded that the improvement of student’s scientific attitude in experiment class which uses cooperative multimodels with Smart Tree is higher than that of control class which uses discussion and demonstration as the learning models. The scientific attitude improvement being analysed include 5 indicators: want to know attitude, honesty, communicative, cooperation, and responsibility. The student’s response to the learning with cooperative multimodels with Smart Tree is categorized as good with percentage 79%.

Abstract

This research aims to revealing profile of science process skills, profile of questions, and structure of conceptual presentation in physics textbooks on the subject of optical tools. The research method used is descriptive analysis with a quantitative-qualitative approach. Sample of this research are two physics textbooks based on the 2013 Curiculum those widely used as learning resources in Cilacap district. The results showed that both textbooks on the subject of optical tools more present aspects of basic science process skills than integrated science process skills. The percentage aspects of basic science process skills is 72,88% for book A and 87,32% for book B. Questions are more dominant to train students at the level application (C3) with percentage 66,67% for book A and 71,37% for book B. The structure of presentation of the concept in book A prepared directly on the discussion of optical tools, whereas in book B is explained about reflection and refraction firstly, then review the material of optical tools.

Abstract

Science literacy began to be accommodated in Indonesia in the curriculum 2006 (KTSP) and more clearly seen in the curriculum 2013 through inquiry activity and scientific approaches. Based on the result of a comparative study conducted by OECD through PISA for children aged 15-17 years, Indonesia obtained unsatisfactory result. It was caused by the Indonesian’s low interest in reading according to UNESCO in 2012. Another thing that caused the low scientific literacy score of students was textbooks. The result of an analysis of the SMP science textbook which used in various schools in Central Java showed that the learning materials did not contain scientific literacy components. Textbooks have an important role in science learning. The learning material which used during the learning process was the learning support beside the role of the teacher. This research was a research and development that produced a product in the form of a science literacy learning material with sound as the theme. The purpose of this research was to find out the characteristics, validity and effectiveness of the learning material compiled. The assessment was conducted on grade VIII F which was chosen based on purposive sampling technique. The result showed that the preparation of physical science learning material based on science literacy could improve the ability of science literacy in the medium category. In addition, the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor learning outcomes were good.

Abstract

Some of Physics Science material in Junior High School are abstract so that sometimes students find difficulties in understanding them because there is no clear visualization of the material. Those things can be overcome by using a learning media. Scrapbook is a craft that contains images and a little narration which can help teachers in explaining some of the Physics Science material that requires a good visualization. This study aimed to develop scrapbook learning media and find out the effect of the learning media on students' material understanding. The method that was used in this research was Research & Development (R & D). The sample of this study were 27 students of VIIC class of SMP Negeri 1 Sigaluh using pretest-posttest and feasibility questionnaires. The data analysis techniques used t-test to see the difference between students’ learning result before and after the use of scrapbook as a media in the learning activities. Moreover, an N-gain test was also performed to calculate the amount of increase that was occured. The results of this study showed that scrapbook learning media did not only emphasize on the clear and interesting images, but also provided enough materials so that the media can be used for independent learning. The results of the feasibility test by material experts and media experts obtained an average score of 91.26% with a very feasible category. Scrapbook media was able to give an influence to the enhancement of students’ material understanding by obtaining an N-gain value of 0.54 with a medium category.

Abstract

One of the policies developed in the curriculum 2013 is to provide services to students according to their talents, interests, and learning abilities. A teacher is required to be able to provide an Independent Learning Activity Unit or Unit Kegiatan Belajar Mandiri (UKBM) for students. The goals of this research are to develop physics UKBM of work and energy based on contextual learning, to know the feasibility and readability of UKBM, and to know the improvement of student’s understanding about work and energy concepts. The used method in this research is Research and Development (R&D). The research steps consist of study of potential and problems, data collection, product design, expert validation, product revisions, small-scale trials, product revisions, and large-scale trials. One Group Pretest-posttest was used as the trials design. The subject of trials is 10th grade student of SMA Negeri 1 Kendal in 2018/2019 school year. The results of the research are the characteristics of UKBM of work and energy based on contextual learning according to the guidelines for developing UKBM and aspects of contextual learning. The core activities of the UKBM include four learning activities, which are the concept of work, the concept of the relationship of work and energy change, and the concept of the Law of Conservation of Mechanical Energy. The learning process was arranged using the Problem Based Learning model by presenting physics problems in daily life. UKBM of work and energy was declared very feasible with a percentage score of eligibility of 96%. The readability test result of 77% showed that UKBM was easy to understand. Based on the results of large-scale trials, the application of UKBM in learning can improve student's understanding of concepts with the gain of 0.49 in the middle improvement category.

Abstract

Teaching materials that are commonly used do not meet the needs and criteria of the 2013 curriculum which emphasizes character education and student activity. In addition, student motivation to learn physics is also low. In this research, I-SETS physics teaching material is supplemented with characters to increase student motivation. This type of research is Research and Development (RnD). Based on validation by media and material experts as well as one practitioner it was found that physics-based I-SETS-based physics supplemented characters scored 85.03% with a very decent category. Based on the readability test results, an average score of 64.47% is included in the easy to read category. While based on the results of student motivation questionnaires, interviews and observation sheets found that I-SETS-based physics teaching materials can increase learning motivation. The results of the student character questionnaire showed that religious character, discipline, responsibility, and care for the developing environment. Meanwhile, based on observations it shows that the religious character, discipline, responsibility, and environmental care are entrenched.
