Abstract

This study aims to describe the differences in the critical thinking ability of male and female students at junior high school (SMPN 27 Surabaya) on environmental pollution topics. The type of research used is descriptive. The research sample was 34 students of SMPN 27 Surabaya class VII F consisting of 17 female students and 17 male students. Data collection was carried out using critical thinking skills tests, student questionnaires, and learning observation sheets. The data obtained include students' critical thinking skills, observation results, and interview results that have been grouped based on the student's gender. The results of this study show that there are differences in critical thinking skills between male students and female students. Female students scored an average critical thinking ability of 75, while male students scored 65. The critical thinking ability of female students is higher than that of male students, as evidenced by the average score of female students being higher than that of male students. It shows that in learning activities, teachers must pay attention to student gender differences, motivate students, and choose the appropriate learning model.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of the cybergogy approach in improving Science Process Skills and learning outcomes. The research design used is One Group Pretest Posttest Design with a quantitative approach. The data collection method used is test and observation. The subjects of this study were 16 students of class VIII-A of Junior High School 2 Papar, Indonesia. Observers in this study were two science teachers and one student majoring in science. The instruments used in this study include learning implementation sheets, Science Process Skills observation sheets, pretest and posttest sheets of cognitive learning outcomes. The data analysis technique used quantitative analysis. Implementing learning through the cybergogy approach is carried out well, and a high learning success rate affects the improvement of science process skills and learning outcomes. The pretest of 80% and posttest of 94,4% showed increased cognitive and affective learning outcomes. The average N-Gain result obtained is 0.7 with high criteria. Science process skills as psychomotor and affective aspects experienced a significant increase. The use of PhET media also increased science process skills and learning outcomes. This study concludes that implementing the cybergogy approach to learning using PhET as a V-Lab media can improve science process skills and student learning outcomes.

Abstract

This study aims to describe students' responses to implementing PhET Simulations after joining a virtual laboratory practice. This study employed a survey method. The samples of this study included 80 students in eighth grade, and the data collection was conducted using the questionnaire of students' responses to the use of PhET Simulation. The data of students' responses were displayed in percentages and grouped into five categories: very good, good, satisfying, sufficient, and insufficient. The study results showed that students' interest in PhET Simulations was categorized as good. Group learning feasibility using PhET Simulations was categorized as satisfying, the novelty of PhET Simulations for students was categorized as good, the effectiveness of PhET Simulations was categorized as good, and new information gained from PhET Simulations was categorized as good. The average of students' responses was categorized as good. The results revealed that students respond well to the implementation of PhET Simulations in virtual laboratory practice activities, which should be implemented in the science learning activity during Covid-19 pandemics.

Abstract

Kencur (Kaempferia galanga L.) essential oil nanoemulsion was proposed to replace baby powder which has been banned in several countries. This study aimed to determine the effect of various kencur essential oil concentrations on particle size and to measure their stability during storage. This research was initiated by examining essential oil quality and followed by the formulation of nanoemulsion with maltodextrin and tween 80. PSA characterized it, and stability was observed for six weeks. The results showed that the essential oil of kencur was of good quality with a clear yellow color oil, a distinctive odor of kencur, 0.933 g/mL of density, and a 1.480 refractive index value. This value is considered standard in Indonesia's National standards (SNI) of essential oil. The L1, L2, L3, and L4 nanoemulsion formulas have particle sizes: 20.4 nm, 20.3 nm, 21.7 nm, and 26.2 nm, respectively. L1 (0.475) is chosen as the best formula based on the PI value. The formulas showed good stability and homogeneity for six weeks of storage. Its pH is also persistent at room temperature (30 °C) or in refrigerator storage (7 °C).

Abstract

The study aimed to describe improving students' critical thinking skills by applying a structured inquiry model to the substance pressure topic. The research design is one group pretest-posttest design. The study was conducted at the eighth-grade junior high schools in Surabaya in the 2021/2022 academic year, which totaled 22 respondents. Data collection techniques in questionnaire and test. The questionnaire analysis used the Guttman scale, which was calculated using the percentage formula. While the data analysis techniques pretest-posttest using N-Gain score, normality test, and paired t-test. An implementation of the structured inquiry model improves students' critical thinking skills. It is shown that the t-test where the significance value of (0.000 <0.05) indicates differences in students' critical thinking skills before and after the structured inquiry model is applied. The average value of Gain evidence the difference-the results were (0.81) in the high category, and 91% of the 22 students experienced increased critical thinking skills in the high category. The implementation of learning using the inquiry model gets a mode value of 4, so it can be categorized as very good. The students gave a response reaching 93.96% in the very good category. In conclusion, a structured inquiry model can improve students' critical thinking skills on substance-pressure topics.

Abstract

This research aimed to identify the effect of sucrose concentration on the transparency of solid soap and to analyze the quality of used cooking oil based on the pH standards of bath soap and the quality requirements of bath soap. Sucrose, a soaping agent, was concentrated at 0%, 7%, 9%, 11%, and 13%, for the test was carried out three times in a row. The test of solid soap was a test of soap transparency, pH, air content, amount of fatty acids, free alkali, free fatty acids, neutral fats, and mineral oil. The results showed that the concentration of sucrose in soap making greatly affected the transparency of soap. The most transparent is a soap with a concentration of 13% sucrose. The quality of soap based on used cooking oil against the pH standard of bath soap has met the standard, and the quality requirements of the Indonesian Nasional Standard for bath soap are appropriate except for the water content and the number of fatty acids.
