Learning model plays a crucial role in improving students' communication skills. This research aims to determine the level of effectiveness of the Think Talk Write learning model on students' scientific communication skills on ecosystem material in class X MAS Al-Wardah. This type of research is descriptive research using a one group pretest-posttest design. The data collected in this research is attitude data on scientific communication skills and written scientific communication skills which are constructed based on six indicators of scientific communication skills. Attitude data on scientific communication skills were collected using the observation method and data on students' written scientific communication skills were collected using the test method. The research results showed that students' scientific communication skills attitudes increased with a gain factor of 0.31 in the medium category and also students' scientific communication skills in writing with an average gain of 0.4 in the medium category. Based on these results, it can be concluded that the Think Talk Write learning model is still less effective in improving students' scientific communication skills.

This study aims to examine the difference in critical thinking abilities using the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) and Predict-Observe-Explain (POE) models in the topic of cells. The research design employed in this study is quasi-experimental with a Nonequivalent Control Group design. The population in this research consists of two classes of XI IPA, totaling 60 students. Sampling was conducted using the Saturation sampling technique. The instrument used to measure critical thinking abilities was a set of ten essay-type questions. The average scores of pretest and posttest critical thinking abilities of students using the POE and PBL models were as follows, respectively: 54.83; 72.75 and 52.67; 78.83. The data results for critical thinking abilities across 5 indicators using the PBL and POE models were 79.90 and 71.50, respectively, categorized as high. The t-test results indicate that critical thinking abilities using the PBL model are superior to those using the POE model. The N-gain test results reveal that both models are equally effective in enhancing students' critical thinking abilities.

From the interview with the biology teacher at Taman Mulia Private High School, it can be seen that the students' creative thinking skills have not been fully trained and no special assessment has been carried out. Overcoming these problems can be done by using a learning model that can encourage students and improve the ability of creative thinking skills by providing systematic projects. The purpose of this study was to determine how much influence the project-based learning (PjBL) model of making bioplastic preserves has on students' creative thinking skills in biodiversity material. This research method is a quasi-experimental design using the Nonequivalent Control Group Design. The sampling technique used simple random sampling with class X IIS 1 as the experimental class using the PjBL learning model for making bioplastic preserves and class X IIS 2 as the control class using the discovery learning model. The results of the effect size of 1.16 are in the large category and it is concluded that there is an influence on the creative thinking skills of students.

Class of 2020 students face practical lectures such as Real Work Lectures and Introduction to the School Field as well as preparation for the final Thesis assignment. These lectures are not specifically scheduled in the study program, but are related to the partners where the students practice. This is a challenge for students in managing time and independence in carrying out academic activities. The ability to manage time, plan activities and carry out evaluations are metacognitive aspects needed by students. Therefore, this research aims to analyze students' metacognitive awareness through creative bullet journaling writing. The research population was all students of the Class of 2020 biology education at Medan State University who were taking KKN & PLP courses. The sample consisted of 30 students taken randomly. The data collection technique is carried out by providing bullet journaling before the new semester begins. Then students are given time to fill in the journal for approximately 3 months. Data analysis was carried out descriptively quantitatively. The research results show that students have classical metacognitive awareness in the well-developed category. Based on declarative, procedural and conditional aspects of knowledge; monitoring and evaluating are in the well developed category, while for the planning aspect the category is starting to develop. Based on these findings, it is necessary to train students to. Write a journal regularly so that metacognitive awareness can be further improved until the category develops very well

This study aims to evaluate the effect of the Problem Based Learning (PBL) model on students' critical thinking skills in understanding the material of RNA and DNA structures. The PBL model is applied as an active learning approach that involves students in solving real problems and is relevant to the biology material being studied. This study used an experimental design with a control group and an experimental group where the experimental group was taught using the PBL model, while the control group used conventional learning methods. Data collection was carried out through critical thinking skills tests before and after the intervention, as well as observations during the learning process. The results of the analysis showed that students who were taught using the PBL model experienced a significant increase in critical thinking skills compared to the control group. These findings indicate that the application of the PBL model can improve students' understanding and analytical skills of the structure of RNA and DNA, and can be an effective alternative in the biology learning process in schools. This study provides recommendations for the wider application of the PBL method in the context of science education to improve students' critical thinking skills.

This research aims to determine the effect of the Discovery Learning model on student learning outcomes in class VIII pressure material. ThisThis research aims to determine the effect of the Discovery Learning model on student learning outcomes in class VIII pressure material. This research uses Quasy Experimental Design with a Pretest-Posttest Control design with probability sampling techniques. Data collection was carried out using a multiple choice test with a total of 25 questions. This research involved class VIII students at SMP Negeri 1 Sawit Seberang. Data processing in this study used the SPSS version 25 application. The normality test results showed that the data came from a normal distribution. The homogeneity test shows that the data is homogeneous. In the PairdSample T-Test, the Sig value was obtained. (2-tailed) = 0.000 which indicates a significance value < 0.05 so that Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. Thus, it can be concluded that the Discovery Learning model has a significant effect on the learning outcomes of Class VIII students on pressure material at SMP Negeri 1 Sawit Seberang.
