This study presents a literature review on growing scientific attitudes and literacy towards science for students. Natural science is a product, process, and ends with an attitude that is a scientific attitude. Scientific attitudes are developed through scientific literacy activities or processes in learning when conducting discussions, experiments, simulations, and project activities at the field. Although in the world of education, we have encountered many models that carry out the activities described above in developing students' scientific attitudes. Some of them are inquiry, discovery learning, problem-based learning, project-based learning, and contextual learning. The learning model improves the scientific attitude in learning. However, there are some obstacles in its efforts to foster the scientific attitude of students, one of the problems is that educators lack the relevant pedagogical skills needed in learning in an atmosphere of inquiry. Another disadvantage is that the background of teachers' understanding of scientific literacy content is still poor. This research was conducted to see the factors that influence the scientific attitude of students. Literature research results show that the scientific attitude of students will be positive, if the ability of educators in scientific learning and literacy of science is mastered by the teacher.

Science learning has potential in the nation's development efforts in terms of process. Applicative science materials can be used to develop the entrepreneurial spirit of students. However, the lack of student awareness in the application of science science has resulted in science education being only seen as science learning materials for junior high schools. Students lack the ability to have a scientific attitude that affects their entrepreneurial abilities. The purpose of this study is to determine the entrepreneurial ability of students by applying the PjBL learning model. This research is a quasi-experimental study with one group pretest-posttest design. The research population is the students of Science Education, Tidar University. Sampling by random method. The instrument used is a student entrepreneur response questionnaire. Data collection techniques through questionnaires. The results showed that the students' pretest results in the very low category were the highest at 43%. However, the posttest results showed progress with the highest percentage, namely the high category with a percentage of 38%. Thus, project-based learning (PjBL) has a good effect on students' interest in entrepreneurship

Conference skills comprise a wide range of activities and tasks students should master to be professional and informed conference participants. The first chapter of the paper introduces the theoretical background of the project called a “mock scientific conference”, which may be seen as an instance of project-based learning. This methodology builds on the concepts of social constructivism, deeper learning, critical thinking, collaboration and learner-independence, which advocate for a student-centred and experiential approach to education through exploring real-world situations and problems. The second and third parts of the paper discuss individual tasks and activities designed for the students at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels, ranging from poster presentation practice to delivering expert talks, writing abstracts and bionotes, chairing sessions and leading discussions. The students find the conference simulation to be highly motivating because it gives them the opportunity to show their expert knowledge and erudition as well as the ability to collaborate and interact with their peers. Therefore, they enhance their speaking and writing skills in a context relevant for their future careers and acquire a range of transferable skills such as organizing an event and communicating effectively.

It has been observed that the level of science process skills and students' scientific attitudes, to seome extent, has not been formed, so the learning activity process has been running in slow motion. This study aims to examine the impact of project based learning (PjBL model) on the improvement of students‘ science process skills (KPS) and scientific attitudes, especially on plant tissue lesson. A pretest-posttest research design was applied to two classes of 8th grade students of SMPN 9 Palangka Raya, namely class VIIIA as the treated group, and while VIIIb as the control class using conventional learning models. The instruments used were lesson plans, science process skills observation sheets, scientific attitude questionnaires, and a number of test questions for testing. The results show that PjBL can improve science process skills with an N-gain of 0.70 in treated group, which is classified as high category, and N-gain of 0.48 in the control class which is in the moderate category. The PjBL implementation does not improve scientific attitudes because the N-gain value is 0.58 in the experimental class, quite similar to 0.32 point in the control class; both fall on moderate category.

Thermodynamics subject learning often creates problems because it is not precise in choosing a learning model, so it is not able to optimize the learning process which in turn will cause the development of students' scientific attitudes to be less than optimal. The development of a scientific attitude is needed in order to face the era of independent learning, with the right scientific attitude, students can further develop their life skills (soft skills). The scientific attitude is always influenced by many factors, one of the factors that influence is the selection of a learning model. In using the learning model, a lecturer can choose an innovative learning model, which will help lecturers and students to improve their scientific attitude. One learning model that can make students critical in the learning process is to use the Project Based Learning Model. This study aims to improve the scientific attitude and learning outcomes of Physics Education Study Program students, FKIP-UNIB in the Thermodynamics course through the application of the Project Based Learning Model. The research was conducted with classroom action research (PTK) which was carried out in several cycles. The subjects in this study were all students of the Physics Education Study Program FKIP-UNIB semester 3 of the 2020/2021 Academic Year. The instrument used was the test sheet to measure learning outcomes and a scientific attitude questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics. The results of data analysis showed that the implementation of the Project Based Learning model in the Thermodynamics Subject for 3rd semester students of the Physics Education Study Program, FKIP, Bengkulu University, has an increase in scientific attitudes and learning outcomes.Keywords: Project Based Learning Model, independent learning, scientific attitude
