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.

Abstract

Critical thinking and learning motivation are essential competencies for 21st-century students; however, these skills remain relatively low in science education due to teacher-centered instruction and the limited use of engaging media. To address this issue, innovative approaches that integrate effective learning models with appealing learning resources are required. This study investigates the effect of incorporating a Problem-Based Learning (PBL) science magazine on junior high school students’ learning motivation and critical thinking skills in ecology and biodiversity. A quantitative research design was applied using a pretest–posttest control group design, involving two groups of students including an experimental class that used a PBL-based science magazine and a control class that employed a discovery learning worksheet. The results of the independent sample t-test revealed statistically significant differences between the two groups. Furthermore, the N-Gain test demonstrated high effectiveness, with an N-Gain score of 0.71 for learning motivation and 0.70 for critical thinking skills. These findings suggest that the integration of PBL-based science magazines has a substantial positive impact on students’ learning motivation and critical thinking, highlighting the potential of combining innovative models and media to strengthen science learning outcomes.

Abstract

Collaboration skills are essential competencies emphasized in the Merdeka Curriculum as part of the gotong royong dimension in the Pancasila Student Profile. However, observations at an Islamic boarding school-based senior high school in Madura indicated that students' collaboration skills were still low due to the dominance of teacher-centered learning. This study aimed to examine the effect of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model on the collaboration skills of tenth-grade students in biology learning. A quantitative approach was used with a quasi-experimental design involving a non-equivalent control group. The participants consisted of 62 students, divided into an experimental group (n = 32) that received PBL treatment and a control group (n = 30) that received direct instruction. Data on collaboration skills were collected using an observation sheet adapted from Hermawan, Widodo, and Saputra (2017), covering aspects such as contribution, time management, problem-solving, teamwork, and inquiry. The results of the Mann–Whitney U test showed a significant difference between the groups (U = 26.500, Z = –6.456, p < .001), with the experimental group achieving a higher median score (15.00) than the control group (10.00). The effect size was 1.60, indicating a significant effect. These findings demonstrate that PBL is effective in enhancing students' collaboration skills through active learning processes, and it is recommended for broader implementation in Islamic boarding school-based schools to support 21st-century education goals.

Abstract

The growth of the human population increases production and consumption, leading to higher waste volumes. Environmental literacy is essential to broaden knowledge, foster responsibility, and enhance students’ ability to solve environmental problems. This study aims to assess the feasibility and practicality of an experiential learning-based e-module to strengthen environmental literacy skills in grade X high school biology. Using the Thiagarajan 4D R&D model (define, design, develop, disseminate), the module was tested on 33 grade XI-2 students of SMAN 1 Kademangan. Data were collected through validation and teacher and student response questionnaires. The results showed that the e-module met the criteria of validity, reliability, completeness of material, accuracy of facts and data, and effectively encouraged environmental literacy improvement. The module was found to be efficient and accurate in measuring students’ skills. Trial results and questionnaire responses indicated significant improvements in environmental literacy test scores and positive feedback from both teachers and students. Therefore, the experiential learning-based e-module is considered suitable and practical for use in teaching biology, particularly in fostering environmental literacy among grade X high school students.

Abstract

Science education in Indonesia faces challenges in improving students’ science literacy skills, which are often still low. The objectives of this study are to assess the impact of using the “ELGASE” learning media on improving students' science literacy skills and to identify differences in science literacy skills before and after the implementation of the “ELGASE” media. The method in this study was pre-experimental involving 22 students of class VIII. Data were obtained through observation, testing, and documentation collection methods, then analyzed using the normality test and the N-Gain test to evaluate changes in scores. The results showed that the use of “ELGASE” media provided a significant increase in students’ science literacy skills. This improvement is measured through a nonparametric test (Wilcoxon), which indicates the difference or comparison of pretest and posttest scores on each indicator. The study results indicate that the use of “ELGASE” media significantly improved students’ science literacy skills, with the N-Gain score for the first indicator being 0.80 (80%) and for the third indicator 0.92 (92%), classified as “Effective” and “Highly Effective”, respectively. Additionally, the second indicator showed an increase of 0.58 (58%), falling into the “Moderate” category, which demonstrates a medium level of effectiveness in enhancing students’ understanding of the taught material.  The conclusion of this research is that the “ELGASE” media is proven effective in improving students’ science literacy skills and can be recommended for use in science learning.

Abstract

Biology learning in secondary schools still faces various challenges, particularly related to poor conceptual understanding, limited scientific skills, and declining student motivation. One major issue is the dominance of conventional assessment techniques that emphasize memorization rather than demonstrating real ability through performance. This study aims to determine the magnitude of the influence of the use of performance assessment in biology learning in secondary schools by considering moderator variables such as geographic area, teaching materials, and implementation success. The study was conducted based on the PRISMA guidelines for systematic reviews and meta-analyses, and used JASP-0.19.3.0 software for data analysis. The results showed that performance assessment has a statistically significant influence on biology learning with a medium effect size on the variables of geographic area (0.585), teaching materials (0.552), and implementation success (0.552). These findings confirm that the use of performance assessment contributes positively to improving students’ conceptual mastery, scientific skills, and learning motivation. Therefore, performance assessment can be recommended as a relevant and effective evaluation strategy to overcome the limitations of traditional assessments and improve the quality of biology learning in secondary schools.

Abstract

This research aims to develop and validate an e-module based on the Search, Solve, Create, and Share (SSCS) learning model to facilitate students' critical thinking skills on energy crisis materials. The research uses the ADDIE development model, which is limited to the formative evaluation stage, including needs analysis, design, development, and readability and practicality tests. The results of expert validation show that the e-module is in the "quite valid" category with an average of 83.2%. The readability test obtained results of 89.25% from students and 88.4% from teachers (outstanding category), while the practicality test by teachers reached 91.67% (convenient category). The results of the Fleiss’ Kappa test showed a “moderate” level of agreement on the SSCS syntax (0.50) and the critical thinking indicator (0.57). The e-module also features interactive features such as learning videos and contextual educational games. These findings indicate that SSCS-based e-modules are suitable for use as science learning media to encourage the strengthening of students’ critical thinking skills independently and contextually. The implications of this research suggest that integrating the SSCS model into digital learning media can enhance students’ engagement and reflective thinking, and it provides a foundation for future experimental studies to measure its effectiveness in improving learning outcomes.

Abstract

The standard of operating procedure (SOP) is a laboratory activity method and must meet the criteria of good laboratory practice (GLP) and other stipulations of valid legislation. The article aims to establish ownership/lack of the SOP of a laboratory that has a public high school laboratory in the city of Yogyakarta. It uses descriptive research. The purpose of descriptive research is to describe images systematically. The research was conducted at Yogyakarta State High School in June 2022—data collection techniques via observation, interviews, and questionnaires. The forms of the instruments used were observation sheets, interview sheets, and checklists, where the instruments had been validated. Samples in this study are random sampling, SMA A, SMA B, and SMA C. This research subject is the head of a high school biology lab in Yogyakarta. The study showed that high school biology LABS A, B, and C already had the SOP implemented, but there was still a lack of it, and this led to increased safety principles. School A has as many as 9 SOPs, school B has as many as 10 SOPs, and school C has as many as 8 SOPs. Out of all three schools, only school B had SOP malfunction of lab equipment. Presumably, school B has the most complete SOP than schools A and C.

Abstract

Blood transfusions are an important part of medicine for patient recovery. Therefore, the transfused blood must be free from viruses, bacteria, and even parasites that can be transmitted through blood transfusions. Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV/AIDS), Hepatitis C, Hepatitis B, and Syphilis are among the illnesses that can be transferred through blood transfusions. This research aims to determine screening parameters for transfusion-transmitted infection using the rapid diagnostic test method. This type of research is experimental with a cross-sectional design. The samples used were ten blood samples, taken intravenously and then centrifuged at a speed of 1300 rpm for 4 minutes. After that, screening is carried out with a rapid diagnostic test. The screening results of the ten blood samples examined were valid and negative or non-reactive for HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis C, Hepatitis B, and Syphilis. These results indicate that the blood samples tested can be categorized as blood samples that passed the screening test or the blood examination test for four parameters of transfusion-transmitted infection.
