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.

Abstract

Facing the era of Society 5.0, competence and adaptation are important aspects in education. The transition from Industrial Revolution 4.0 to Society 5.0 demands 21st century skills, with a focus on 4C skills (Communication, Collaboration, Critical Thinking and Problem Solving, and Inventiveness and Innovation), needs to be integrated in the teaching and learning process. But in reality, collaboration skills and student learning outcomes are still low, especially in the circulatory system material which is considered difficult. This research aims to develop Enjoyable Learning-based learning media, which is expected to improve collaboration skills and student learning outcomes. The method used was R&D with the ADDIE model which involved analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The subjects of this research were 44 8th grade students and 2 junior high school science teachers at SMP Nasional Malang. The results of validation by experts showed that ELCOCS (Enjoyable Learning for Collaboration Skills on Circulatory System) media has a very valid category with a media validity percentage of 84.4% and material validity of 87.91%. The practicality test by teachers and students also showed a very practical category with a percentage of teacher practicality of 94.4% and student practicality of 87.65%. The excellent results from the validity and practicality tests indicate that this media is not only suitable for use but also has the potential to improve collaborative skills and student learning outcomes.

Abstract

Students' scientific literacy skills are currently relatively low, one of the influencing factors is the lack of use of learning media that can train students' scientific literacy skills. This research aims to develop ELGASE (Enjoyable Learning Gangguan Sistem Ekskresi) media that is valid and practical. The media developed is not only to train students' scientific literacy skills, but also as an effort to make learning strategies more enjoyable for students. The method used in this research is RnD (Research and Development) with the ADDIE model including needs analysis, design, development, implementation and evaluation. At the implementation stage, this research stopped at the teacher and student practicality tests. The results indicate that the ELGASE learning media is both valid and practical, receiving high scores from 2 expert evaluations and positive feedback from students and teachers. The media validation results have a very valid category, namely 91.4% for media validation and 92.5% for material validation. The results of the practicality test by teachers and students obtained presentations of 82.4% and 92% respectively in the very practical category. In conclusion, the developed ELGASE learning media is valid and practical for use in educational settings, providing a valuable tool for improving science literacy and making learning more enjoyable for students.

Abstract

This study was based on the importance of motivation as an internal factor that influences student engagement in learning, particularly in developing science process skills, which are central to the scientific learning approach. Lack of self-motivation shows that students are less active in learning activities. This study aimed to determine the correlation between learning motivation and students' science process skills. This research used the Guided Inquiry model to enhance learning motivation and science process skills. The subjects of this study were students class X-A of Islamic boarding school in Pamekasan in 2023/2024 academic year with 23 students. This research was a correlational study with regression correlation analysis techniques. Data collection on learning motivation used ARCS (Attention, Relevance, Confidence, and Satisfaction) motivation questionnaire, while science process skills used a rubric. The results of this study indicated that there was a significant relationship between learning motivation and science process skills. The regression analysis results showed a large R value of 0.647 which indicated that there was high relationship between learning motivation and science process skills. The findings indicated that an increase in students’ learning motivation was associated with an improvement in their science process skills. Guided Inquiry learning model can be a recommended model in empowering students' learning motivation and science process skills, especially in biology learning.

Abstract

Less varied learning models often cause students' low scientific literacy abilities. This research aims to determine whether differentiation learning through a problem-based learning model based on learning styles can improve students' scientific literacy skills in the human respiratory system concept. The research method used in this research is quantitative. The population in this study was class XI MIPA SMAN 1 Lohbener, with a sample of class XI MIPA 5 and XI MIPA 2. The sampling technique uses a random sampling technique. The instrument used is nine multiple choice questions to measure scientific literacy skills using criteria questions C4-C5 adapted to learning indicators, and a learning style instrument includes 14 statements adapted to learning style indicators. After processing the data, the results of the scientific literacy abilities of the experimental class and control class students obtained Sig. 0.728 > 0.05, so there is no difference in scientific literacy abilities based on student learning styles. There is also a difference in scientific literacy abilities between the differentiated and undifferentiated problem-based learning models (Sig. 0.000 < 0.05). Additionally, there is no interaction effect between the problem-based learning model and student learning styles (Sig. 0.944 > 0.05). These results indicate that the learning model is more effective in the learning process for all students, while learning style influences how students absorb the information taught.
