Abstract

This research aims to explore junior high school science teachers' perceptions of scientists, science subjects, the nature of science (NOS), and the nature of scientific inquiry (NOSI). Using a quantitative descriptive approach, this research involved 61 junior high school science teachers from various regions in Indonesia. A research instrument was developed, which included needs analysis, instrument design, instrument development, and instrument evaluation. The research results show that junior high school science teachers have mixed perceptions of scientists, with the majority recognizing the important role of scientists in the advancement of science and technology. However, there is a diversity of views regarding the physical and demographic characteristics of scientists. Regarding science subjects, teachers tend to have a positive perception of science's ability to develop students' critical and creative thinking skills. Teachers' perceptions of NOS show that most teachers understand the tentative nature of scientific knowledge and the importance of empirical evidence in science. Meanwhile, perceptions of NOSI show that teachers understand that scientific inquiry starts from curiosity about the natural environment, although there are variations in their beliefs regarding the effectiveness of inquiry models in learning. These findings emphasize the importance of ongoing professional development for teachers to increase their understanding of NOS and NOSI, as well as improve the quality of science learning in secondary schools.

Abstract

Scientists play a crucial role in the advancement of science and technology; however, public perceptions of them are still influenced by various stereotypes and limited understanding. Science teachers, as educators who shape students' perceptions of scientists, hold views that can influence how science is taught and understood in schools. This study aims to analyze science teachers' perceptions of scientists, covering aspects such as the image of scientists, trust in the scientific method, scientists' relationship with society and education, their relevance to religious and cultural values, and the attractiveness of the scientist profession. The study employed a survey method involving 61 science teachers from various schools in Indonesia. The findings indicate that while most respondents have high confidence in scientists and the scientific method, there remains a gap in the representation of contemporary scientists in education and media. Additionally, scientists are still perceived as having limited involvement in formal education and public communication. Although the scientist profession is regarded as appealing, challenges such as gender stereotypes and the exclusivity of science continue to be barriers. Therefore, more inclusive strategies in science education and communication are needed to strengthen the role of scientists in society.

Abstract

This study aims to systematically review how trends, approaches, and outcomes of laboratory modules can enhance students' science process skills. The review was conducted using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method by collecting and analyzing published research from 2015 to 2024, sourced from the Dimensions and Scopus databases. The articles reviewed were relevant, high-quality, and available in full text. To examine the relationships between keywords and research themes, the VOSviewer application was utilized. The results of the review indicate that many laboratory modules remain focused on technological aspects and feasibility testing, but few integrate design development, instrument evaluation, and field testing comprehensively. Modules designed using the ADDIE model, validated by experts, and tested through pretest–posttest methods with a control group, have proven effective in enhancing students' scientific process skills. This study provides a comprehensive overview and serves as an important foundation for developing better and more needs-appropriate practical modules.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze developmental research on science learning based on local wisdom in Sumatra Island. The method employed is a Systematic Literature Review (SLR), allowing for a structured and comprehensive review of relevant articles by following pre-established steps. A total of 10 articles met the inclusion and exclusion criteria and were included in the final analysis. The findings reveal that science learning can be effectively integrated with local wisdom values, as science is closely related to the surrounding environment. Forms of local wisdom in Sumatra identified in the articles include the Musi River, regional flora and fauna, clay brick-making, local fermented food "dadiah," "Pempek" ethnoscience, tourist attractions such as Bukit Sulap Nature Park, Water Vang Dam Park, Temam Waterfall Nature Park, and various local natural disasters. The instructional design models employed include ADDIE, Four-D, Borg & Gall, and Plomp. The majority of research outcomes focus on the development of media and instructional materials based on technology.

Abstract

Higher education has an important role in developing students' scientific creativity to face the challenges of the 21st century. One approach that has received attention in improving scientific creativity is the scaffolding inquiry model integrated with local wisdom. However, research related to the trend and direction of the development of the scaffolding inquiry model integrated with local wisdom on student scientific creativity is still limited. This study aims to provide a bibliometric review of the research trends of the scaffolding inquiry model integrated with local wisdom on student scientific creativity during the period 2020-2025. Data was obtained through Google Scholar using analysis tools such as Publish or Perish and Dimensions.ai, resulting in 1,000 documents selected based on PRISMA guidelines. Analysis was conducted using bibliometric methods and content analysis, supported by VOSviewer software to visualize keyword trends and research patterns. Research trends showed variations in the number of annual publications, with a significant spike in 2021 and a decline in subsequent years. Bibliometric analysis shows the dominance of publications in the form of books and monographs, highlighting the need for further exploration in this topic. Although the publication trend shows a decline in recent years, the scaffolding inquiry model integrated with local wisdom remains important to enhance students' scientific creativity. The integration of local wisdom in learning can create a more contextualized and innovative learning experience, support the development of scientific creativity skills, and fit the needs of 21st century education. Further research in the future is expected to explore more deeply the potential of technology and local wisdom in enric hing this learning model.
