Abstract

In today’s global era, thinking skills are essential to be mastered by students. This research intended to develop and implement PBL-based worksheets integrated with green chemistry and ethnoscience to improve thinking skills, which included generic science skills and critical thinking skills. These skills were observed through learning outcomes, which were divided into three domains, i.e., cognitive, psychomotor, and affective. The cognitive aspect was assessed through pre- and post-test results, the psychomotor domain was valued through an essay test and observational sheets, and the affective domain was evaluated using questionnaires and observational sheets. This research was conducted with XI graders of MAN I Semarang and SMA Pekalongan. There were three rounds implemented; first, preliminary research which has observed the problems in chemistry learning, particularly on the hydrolysis topic and continued to the development of worksheets, then validated. The next round was the implementation of the worksheets. The N-gain test was used to see the influence of the developed worksheets on the increase in critical thinking skills and generic science skills. The critical thinking scored 0.58 (moderate), while the generic science, which covered scale awareness and logical inference, scored 0.63 (moderate) and 0.73 (high), respectively. A paired t-test results revealed that there was a remarkable increase in the logical inference and awareness of scale. Moreover, the results of the study found that the applied worksheets were practical for cognitive, affective, psychomotor seen from the learning outcomes.

Abstract

The trend of today’s learning goals for educational institutions is to produce pre-service teachers who think critically. Critical thinking is a higher-order thinking domain that can be taught through appropriate learning strategies. This study intended to describe the influences of the conflict-cognitive strategy in the inquiry-based learning model towards pre-service teachers’ critical thinking ability. This is pre-experimental research with one group pretest-posttest design. The sample included 18 pre-service physics teachers at Mataram State Islamic University (UIN Mataram). The pre-service-teachers’ critical thinking ability was assessed using a critical thinking skill test instrument adapted from the Ennis-Weir Critical Thinking Essay Test. Indicators of critical thinking ability consisted of the ability to analyze, inference, evaluate, and make a decision. The data on critical thinking ability were analyzed descriptively and statistically, where homogeneity, normality, and t-test were performed. Descriptive analysis results indicated that the average score of critical thinking ability in the pretest was -1 in the “less critical” criteria and increased at posttest to 9,89 in the “quite critical” criteria after learning using the conflict-cognitive strategy in the inquiry-based learning model. Statistically, the analysis results revealed that the implementation of the conflict-cognitive strategy in the inquiry-based learning model had a significant effect on pre-service teachers’ critical thinking ability. Therefore, the conflict-cognitive strategy in the inquiry-based learning model can be a reference and alternative learning strategy that can be implemented for specific purposes to improve pre-service teachers’ critical thinking ability.

Abstract

Indonesian students are addicted to using gadgets, which unfortunately brings negative impacts. Using the gadget for a long duration will undoubtedly affect the quality of students if it is not directed to appropriate and beneficial use. After school, students are preoccupied with their gadgets so that they waste a lot of their time to play games and leave their homework undone. As a result, their interest in doing science assignments are meager. Gadget addiction and the low level of learning interest in carrying out tasks are the new problems in education. Therefore, efforts need to be made to overcome them. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of android application as student aid tools in understanding the task of Physics. The subjects of this research were all VIII graders of SMP Islam Terpadu Arrozaq Rantauprapat. The type of this research is quantitative with a pre-experimental design (one-shot case study). This study directed the students to utilize their gadgets in completing the task of physics. The instruments used in this research were the video-checking rubric and the effectiveness questionnaire. This research has been carried out for three months, and video-checking was carried out at the end of each month after the project assignments were collected. The results of data analysis in this study indicated that the utilization of an android application as a tool of students is considered sufficient. The students become more enthusiastic about working on assignments and accessing the internet through gadgets on positive uses.

Abstract

Recent advances in cheminformatics and bioinformatics research have generated software and computational tools for molecular modeling and visualization that can be incorporated to improve chemistry teaching and learning in high school. Nevertheless, there have never been any study simultaneously reporting chemistry teachers’ awareness, understanding, and confidence toward contemporary computer-aided molecular modeling and visualization tools. This study examined 32 high school chemistry teachers’ knowledge, understanding and confidence toward nine new computational programs on molecular modeling and visualization namely ChemDraw, HyperChem, UCSF Chimera, Marvin Sketch, PsiPred, MBC (PS2), Rampage, Vienna RNA Package and Mode RNA following two days of professional workshop-based training.  After completing the training and assessments, the teachers showed an enhancement in awareness, understanding, and confidence toward those nine computational programs. Intensive activities consisting of theoretical lectures, hands-on practices, assignments, and case study presentations seem to provide valuable resources to the increase in teachers’ knowledge, understanding, and skill that incorporates computational technology. Hence, the impact of this research pointed toward the value of teachers’ professional development that creates a platform to reduce the barriers of access, resources, knowledge, and skills. This study is expected to help improving teachers’ awareness, understanding, and confidence necessarily required for further implementation of available technology for instructional purposes.

Abstract

Conceptual understanding is often a problem in science learning, and this issue has become the point of science education experts, including in Indonesia. Lately, ten articles in Indonesia and six articles in other countries have discussed the model of the 7E Learning Cycle. It was mentioned that this model is able to increase learners’ conceptual understanding. This research intended to reveal the effectivity of physics learning using the 7E Learning Cycle in improving students’ understanding of temperature and heat concepts. The research design is quasi-experimental with a non-equivalent control group design. The sample was senior high school students. Objective test in the form of multiple choices equipped with reason was employed as the data collection instrument. Based on the data analysis, the value of Effect Size was 0.5 and belonged to the medium category. In other words, the use of the 7E Learning Cycle model is sufficient to improve the learners’ understanding of temperature and heat concepts. This could be seen from the success of the learning process that integrates the whole seven stages with the seven indicators of conceptual understanding in detail. Thus, the 7E Learning Cycle could be effectively applied and can increase the students’ conceptual understanding.

Abstract

The current standards of assessment are demanding for high level of precision with less time-consuming and personalized opportunities, thus restrict the function of Paper and Pencil Test which has dominated the assessment field for a very long time. The Computerized Adaptive Testing (CAT) is viewed as an alternative testing tool to Paper and Pencil Test as it has adaptive feature which enables it to meet the current standards of assessment. This research is focusing on the evaluation of students’ ability in Grade 8 Science Trend in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) using Computerized Adaptive Testing (CAT) as an alternative instrument to Paper and Pencil Test to investigate whether the implementation of CAT can produce high level of precision with fewer items administered as well as differentiate different academic level among groups of students. CAT was configured in Concerto and was administered on Form 2 and Form 4 students selected through purposive sampling method from secondary schools in northern part of Malaysia. Students’ performance was analysed and compared in terms of score (theta value), SEM value and their response toward the items selected in CAT using SPSS. Finding shows that the administration of 20 objective items in fixed length CAT produced SEM ≤0.50 indicated that the implemented CAT increased the efficiency of assessment with fewer item administration. The t test showed that there was a significance difference between the two groups’ scores in CAT in which Form 4 students had higher ability level than Form 2 students proving that CAT’s configuration had been done correctly in Concerto and the test was more suitable in challenging Form 2 students’ Science knowledge thus the instrument fulfilled the known-group validity.

Abstract

The development of Learners’ Key Competencies (LKCs) is one of the goals of the primary education core curriculum that is currently being used in Thailand. Therefore, learning activities that enhance LKCs are essential for all teachers. The objectives of this research were to develop a Scientific Imagineering (SIG) learning activity through Facebook in enhancing LKC development and to study its effectiveness. A research and development method was used in this study. A total of 30 students of grade 11 which selected using purposive sampling participated in the learning activity. A self-assessment of LKCs form was used to investigate the situation in a physics class, before and after participation in the learning activity. The research results showed that SIG learning activity through Facebook consisted of six steps in the form of Imagine, Study, Design, Develop, Present, and Evaluate. The evaluation results by five experts concerning the suitability of this learning activity indicated that it could be used to enhance LKCs and had great potential to be implemented. Comparing the students’ self-assessment with regard to LKCs, it was clear that there was a significant overall increase (p<.05). The comparison of students’ self-assessment to the LKCs for each component also found that the skills of communication, thinking and learning, problem-solving, and technological application increased significantly (p<.05). The results of this study support the view that SIG learning activity through Facebook could enhance the LKCs of students.
