Abstract

Currently, the main challenge in education is to increase student engagement in science learning. Scientific communication skills are critical skills students need. The use of Pictorial Riddle method is a technique, way or effort made in learning to inform scientific facts for students through images, for example presented in the form of posters, pictures on the blackboard, or projections contained in object transparencies. This study aims to explore how the use of Pictorial Riddle learning method can improve students' scientific communication skills and at the same time arouse their interest in science learning. The method used in this research is a case study, using a sample of 57 students of class XI MIPA selected by random sampling technique. The results showed that the Pictorial Riddle learning method has a good effect on students' interest in science learning where students get learning equipped with pictures on the learner worksheet to be analyzed by students. The Pictorial Riddle approach opens space for student creativity, increases active participation, and strengthens understanding of scientific concepts. This can be the basis for innovative learning approaches, namely with a group learning system to develop scientific communication skills and increase student interest in science learning

Abstract

This research investigates the effect of the Project Based Learning (PjBL) model on students' creative thinking during the digestive system learning at SMAS Brigjend Katamso II. This type of research is a quasi-experiment with a non-equivalent control group design. The population of this study was all XI students at SMAS Brigjend Katamso II, which consisted of 4 classes with a total of 135 students. The research sample using the Cluster Random Sampling technique consisted of two classes: Science 2 with 34 students as the experimental class and Science 3 with 34 students as the control class. The research instrument used was a description test consisting of 4 questions to measure students' creative thinking abilities. This research hypothesis was carried out using the T-test with normal and homogeneous conditions. The results of the post-test analysis of the T test obtained tcount 4.34 and ttable 1.69, thus showing the hypothesis test results that tcount > ttable where Ha was accepted and Ho was rejected. So, there is the influence of the project based learning model on the ability to think creatively about the digestive system material for class XI SMA/MA students.

Abstract

Critical thinking skills are needed by students to solve problems in real life, such as environmental problems related to waste in the environment around students. The purpose of this study is to improve students' critical thinking skills through bioentrepreneurship learning. This research is Classroom Action Research (CAR), consisting of two cycles, where each cycle includes planning, implementing, observing, and reflecting stages. The subjects involved in this research are students of study program X of Jombang X University class of 2020. Data collection techniques are carried out through observation and tests. This study used instruments in the form of observation sheets and critical thinking skills assessments in the form of description questions. The data is analyzed in a qualitative, descriptive way through the calculation of the average score obtained. The conclusion of the research results is that there is an increase in the average critical thinking skills of students through the implementation of bioentrepreneurship learning with project activities from cycle I to cycle II. In cycle I, students' average critical thinking skills were 2.89 with the criteria of "still underdeveloped," and in cycle II, they were 3.33 with the criteria of "well developed".

Abstract

Sustainability awareness has become an increasingly important aspect of global education, especially in the face of environmental challenges. This approach to education with sustainable principles is needed to educate the current generation to meet their needs without risking the next generation, including the issue of food waste. The purpose of this study is to describe the profile of sustainability awareness in high school students related to the issue of food waste. This research used a qualitative descriptive method. The instrument used was a questionnaire developed from three aspects of sustainability awareness: behavior and attitude awareness, emotional awareness, and sustainability practice awareness. The results of filling out the questionnaire were analyzed by determining the mean and percentage and then categorizing the level of sustainability awareness. The results showed that 56% of students have awareness related to the issue of food waste at a moderate level. So, it can be concluded that students have an awareness of the value of sustainability at an emotional level without practicing it in everyday life.

Abstract

Today's education requires students to manage their learning independently, so that students can set learning goals, set strategies, and even evaluate learning, so that students' understanding of concepts increases. This is related to the learning model used, one of which is guided inquiry. This study aims to determine the influence of guided inquiry on the understanding of the concept of evolution. This study is a quantitative research with a quasi-experimental research design with a non-equivalent pretes-postes control group design The subjects in this study are students of class XII IPA MA Miftahul Ulum Bettet Pamekasan even semester of the 2024/2025 academic year. Class XII Science B is an experimental class with 32 students, while class XII Science C is a control class with 31 students. Sampling was carried out by random sampling technique. The hypothesis test in this study uses the Unpaired T Test. The results showed that there was no influence of guided inquiry on the understanding of the concept of evolution. However, guided inquiry remains a reference for a learning model that can empower a variety of skills for students. Researchers should then consider the factors of student readiness, especially in student habits and learning styles, time factors, and teachers or researchers should have mastered the learning model to be used.

Abstract

The critical and creative thinking skills (CCTs) of junior high school students remain at a low level. Following this phenomenon, this research was conducted to explore the potential of the Problem Based-Learning model (PBL) to enhance students' CCTs, using a single class with a single group pretest-posttest design involving the ninth-grade students from State Junior High School in Malang, Indonesia. The sample was selected using the purposive sampling technique. Data was gathered through evaluation instruments in the form of pretest and posttest results. In addition to the aforementioned instruments, teaching modules and student worksheets were employed in the data collection process. The data analysis was performed using a number of tests, including the Shapiro-Wilk data normality test, Wilcoxon test, and N-Gain test. In particular, these tests were carried out to evaluate changes in scores. The research findings indicated that the implementation of PBL was effective and significantly successful in improving students' thinking skills, especially their CCTs. This is evidenced by the Wilcoxon test results, which resulted a significance value of less than 0.05, as well as a high N-Gain increase for critical thinking (0.7001) and a medium category for creative thinking (0.5826). Therefore, these findings can serve as recommendations concerning the role of PBL in improving students' two thinking skills (CCTs).

Abstract

The objective of this study was to ascertain the impact of critical thinking skills on the learning outcomes of junior high school students, with the Self- Organized Learning Environment (SOLE) learning model serving as the experimental framework. The research methodology employed was quasi- experimental, with a research design of nonequivalent control group design. In this study, the experimental class was Grade 8 A Class, while the control class was Grade 8 C class. The SOLE learning model demonstrated a statistically significant effect on critical thinking skills and learning outcomes, as evidenced by the t-test results with a value of 0.05 < 0.000. The N-gain score for the SOLE learning model revealed that 51.5% of the learning outcomes were less effective, while 56.8% of the critical thinking skills were moderately effective. In contrast, the control class in the Discovery Learning learning model achieved 32.3% in learning outcomes and 38.2% in critical thinking skills, both of which were ineffective. The results of the research indicate that critical thinking skills and junior high school science learning outcomes are significantly influenced by the SOLE learning model.
