Abstract

Purpose of the study: The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of different salinity levels on the hatching success and early survival of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and to identify the optimal salinity range for improving seed quality in brackish-water aquaculture. Methodology: This study used a Completely Randomized Design with four salinity treatments. Incubation utilized fiberglass tanks (100 L), a Milwaukee MA887 refractometer, Hanna HI98107 pH meter, Lutron DO-5509 DO meter, and digital thermometers. Fertile eggs from the Kunti strain broodstock were acclimated and incubated. Data were analyzed using Shapiro–Wilk, Levene, One-Way ANOVA, LSD/Tukey tests in SPSS 26. Main Findings: Shapiro–Wilk and Levene tests confirmed that the data were normal and homogeneous. One-Way ANOVA showed significant effects of salinity on hatching rate and survival. The 10 ppt treatment produced the highest hatchability and larval survival, significantly outperforming the 0,5, and 15 ppt groups. Post-hoc LSD identified 10 ppt as the optimum level. Overall, moderate salinity consistently yielded the best early-performance outcomes for Oreochromis niloticus larvae. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study provides new insights by identifying the optimal salinity range for maximizing hatchability and early larval survival of Oreochromis niloticus using controlled embryonic incubation. Unlike previous works, it integrates precise salinity treatments, standardized hatchery instrumentation, and rigorous statistical testing to define an evidence-based salinity benchmark. The findings advance seed-production strategies for brackish-water aquaculture systems.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to analyze the development of Science Process Skills (SPS) in high school physics learning through a systematic review of international research published between 2017 and 2025. Methodology: This study employed a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) design guided by the PRISMA. Data were collected through a structured literature search of two international academic databases, Taylor & Francis Online and SpringerLink. Using purposive sampling based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 30 peer-reviewed journal articles were selected for analysis from an initial pool of 300 identified records. Data were analyzed using qualitative thematic analysis to identify research trends, dominant SPS indicators, and instructional approaches applied in high school physics education. Main Findings: The synthesis reveals that inquiry-based learning, project-based learning, and virtual laboratory approaches are the most consistently reported strategies for enhancing students’ science process skills. Among the three SPS indicators, identifying variables and analyzing data are most frequently emphasized, while drawing conclusions remains less explicitly developed. Strengthening SPS through these approaches improves students’ scientific reasoning, experimental accuracy, learning engagement, and motivation in physics learning. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study provides an updated and systematic synthesis of global research on science process skills development in physics education up to 2025. By mapping instructional strategies and SPS indicators across international contexts, this review offers new conceptual insights into how inquiry-based and technology-supported learning can foster sustainable scientific thinking and support students’ readiness to meet 21st-century learning demands.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to develop and evaluate a context-based scientific literacy assessment instrument on the topic of global warming for sixth-grade elementary school students, employing the Rasch model to examine its validity, reliability, item difficult levels, and Differential Item Functioning (DIF). Methodology: The research design followed a systematic instrument development procedure supported by Rasch model analysis. The instrument comprised 20 multiple-choice items based on the OECD scientific literacy framework and was piloted with 26 sixth-grade students. Data were analyzed using Ministep to examine validity, reliability, item difficult, and Differential Item Functioning (DIF). Main Findings: The findings show that most items satisfied the validity criteria based on Outfit MNSQ, ZSTD and PTM Corr indices. Item difficulty levels were proportionally distributed from very easy to very difficult. Reliability analysis yielded a person reliability of 0.70, an item reliability of 0.72, and a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.78. DIF analysis indicated that all items were free from gender bias. As a pilot study with a limited sample from one school, these results represent preliminary evidence rather than as a final validation of the instrument. Novelty/Originality of this study: This study aims to develop and evaluate a scientific literacy test specifically designed for elementary school students on the topic of global warming using Rasch analysis, an area that remains limited in prior research. The instrument integrates real-life contextual situations aligned with current curriculum demands and has the potential to strengthen scientific literacy assessment practices at the elementary education level.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to systematically identify, analyze, and synthesize various teacher strategies used in science learning to develop students' Science Process Skills (SPS). The study focuses on developing indicators for observation, classification, and data tabulation as basic and integrated scientific skills. Methodology: This study employed a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method, adhering to the PRISMA 2020 guidelines. The unit of analysis was scientific articles, not human participants. Thirty articles meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria were selected through identification, screening, and eligibility assessment. They were then analyzed using document analysis and thematic synthesis. Main Findings: The study results indicate that active, experiential, and inquiry-oriented learning strategies, such as Guided Inquiry, Experimentation, and Project-Based Learning (PjBL), have proven effective in improving basic Science Process Skills, particularly the observation and classification indicators. However, this systematic review also revealed significant strategic weaknesses in the data table creation indicator. These weaknesses are caused by teachers' limitations in designing learning activities that explicitly involve data processing, visualization, and representation as the basis for students' scientific argumentation. Novelty/Originality of this study: The novelty of this research lies in the systematic mapping of the development gaps in data table creation indicators in science learning practices. This study provides a conceptual contribution by confirming that strengthening data processing and representation skills is a crucial component that bridges basic Science Process Skills to more complex and meaningful integrated science process skills.

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This study aims to systematically map the landscape of critical thinking assessment in STEM education, with a particular focus on psychometric characteristics, contextual implementation, and emerging research trends. Methodology: A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was conducted following the PRISMA protocol using the Scopus database as the primary source. A total of 58 studies published between 2018 and 2025 were analyzed through bibliometric mapping using VOSviewer and thematic synthesis. Main Findings: The findings indicate a substantial increase in research on critical thinking assessment in STEM education since 2020, aligning with growing global attention to 21st-century competencies. However, most studies continue to position assessment primarily as a tool for evaluating learning outcomes or the effectiveness of pedagogical interventions, such as project-based, problem-based, and inquiry-based learning. Only a limited number of studies systematically examine the psychometric quality of assessment instruments, including evidence of construct validity, reliability, and multidimensional structure. This pattern reveals a clear gap between assessment practices in STEM education and established standards for educational measurement, which may lead to weak or potentially misleading conclusions about students’ critical thinking abilities. Novelty/Originality of this study: This review integrates bibliometric and thematic analyses to identify conceptual and methodological gaps in the existing literature and proposes a coherent direction for the development of critical thinking assessments that are both psychometrically robust and contextually relevant within STEM education.
