The Subject

One of the greatest challenges instructors face is getting students to connect with the subject in a manner that encourages them to learn. In this essay, we describe the redesign of our Developmental Biology course to foster a deeper connection between students and the field of developmental biology. In our approach, we created a community of scientific practice focused on the investigation of environmental impacts on embryonic development and informed by popular and scientific media, the students' own questions, and the instructor. Our goals were to engage students in meaningful ways with the material, to develop students' science process skills, and to enhance students' understanding of broad principles of developmental biology. Though significant challenges arose during implementation, assessments indicate using this approach to teach undergraduate developmental biology was successful.

The aim of the study is to investigate the attitudes of prospective science teachers towards the use of problem-based learning methods in the learning of concepts related to the subject of solids, and their opinions on its role in academic success, science process skills and the chemistry course. The study group consists of 83 prospective teachers studying in the science education undergraduate program. The experimental group and control group were determined by random sampling method. The problem-based learning method was used in the experimental group and the traditional approach was used in the control group. The experiment was carried out in a period of 5 weeks. As data collection tools; "Solid Concept Achievement Test", "Science Process Skill Test" and "The Attitude Scale toward Chemistry" were used. In the research, analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), independent t-test and statistical methods with descriptions were used. The results showed that problem-based learning is more effective than the traditional approach to understanding the concepts related to solids by prospective teachers. The differences in academic achievement between the experimental and control groups in this study were parallel with the other results reported in the literature. Also, in terms of prospective teachers' development of science process skills and attitudes towards chemistry, it was seen that there was a significant difference between the groups in favor of problem-based learning.

Study Participants

Rendahnya keterampilan proses sains peserta didik dikarenakan penggunaan metode pembelajaran yang didominasi ceramah. Oleh karena itu, dilakukan penelitian untuk meningkatkan keterampilan proses sains dengan pembelajaran berorientasi learner autonomy. Jenis penelitian ini adalah penelitian tindakan kelas model Hopkins terdiri atas 2 siklus. Teknik pengumpulan data diperoleh melalui observasi dan tes. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan: (1) keterlaksanaan rencana pelaksanaan pembelajaranpada siklus I dan siklus II terlaksana dengan sangat baik; (2) keterampilan proses sains secara pada siklus I memperoleh hasil dengan kriteria baik dan siklus II  memperoleh hasil dengan kriteria sangat baik; dan (3) ketuntasan hasil belajar peserta didik meningkat dari siklus I sebesar 64,29% menjadi 85,71% pada siklus II. Implementasi pembelajaran berorientasi learner autonomy mengalami peningkatan yang cukup signifikan dalam meningkatkan keterampilan proses sains peserta didik. Dengan demikian dapat disimpulkan bahwa keterampilan proses sains peserta didik di SMA Korpri Banjarmasin kelas XI MIPA dapat ditingkatkan melalui pembelajaran berorientasi learner autonomy.Students' low science process skills are due to the use of learning methods that are dominated by lectures. Therefore, this research was conducted to improve science process skills with an autonomous learner-oriented. This research is a Hopkins classroom action research model consisting of 2 cycles. The subject of the research was the students of class XI MIPA Korpri High School Banjarmasin. Data collection techniques were obtained through observation and tests. The results showed: (1) the implementation of the lesson plan implementation sheets in cycle I and cycle II was implemented very well; (2) science process skills in cycle I get results with good criteria and cycle II gets results with very good criteria; and (3) The completeness of the results of study participants students increased from cycle I amounted to 64.29% into 85.71% in cycle II. The implementation of learning, which is oriented towards students' learner autonomy, is significant enough to improve students' process skills. Thus it can be concluded that the science process skills of students in the Korpri High School Banjarmasin at MIPA XI class can be improved through autonomous learner oriented learning.

This study aims to develop science learning tools with guided inquiry models assisted by real media to improve scientific creativity and science process skills of grade VIII students at SMP IT Male and SMP IT Female Mataram on light and optical equipment. The development of this tool adopts the development of Dick and Carey. The resulting products are in the form of learning tools in the form of syllabus, lesson plans, LKPD, scientific creativity instruments and science process skills. Before being used, the device was validated by four expert validators and the result was that the device developed was suitable for use in learning. To test the effectiveness of the device, scientific creativity and scientific process skills were tested. The results of the scientific creativity test obtained an average N-Gain of 0.4. This shows that the device developed is quite effective in increasing the scientific creativity of students in the two schools being the subject. The second effectiveness test is the science process skills test. The average N-Gain value obtained was 0.7, this indicates that the learning device developed with a guided inquiry model assisted by real media is very effective in improving students' science process skills.
