The purpose of this study was to determine the contribution of epistemic curiosity (EC) to the science process skills (SPS) of prospective biology teachers. Ex post facto research design with research subjects 32 students of the third-semester biology education study program at the Mandalika University of Education. Samples were taken using the purposive sampling method. The instruments used were the State Curiosity Scale (SCS) to collect epistemic curiosity data, Student Worksheets, and the Science Process Skills rubric to collect SPS. The results showed that the magnitude of the correlation value or R relationship was 0.600. From the output, the coefficient of determination (R Square) was 0.359, this shows that EC is correlated with SPS. Meanwhile, in terms of the results of simple regression analysis, it was found that the variable X (EC) obtained the value of t-count = 4.103 > 1.697 t-table and sig. = 0.000 < 5%. This means that the EC variable contributes significantly to the SPS variable. The results obtained have not been able to describe the contribution of EC to each SPS indicator, so further research needs to analyze the contribution of EC to each SPS indicator

The aim of the study is to increase students' interest and skills using the Group Assignment learning method through micro-scale practicums in Science courses. The study was conducted on Chemistry study subjects. The research subjects were 209 students of Elementary Teacher Education, Pakuan University . During the learning process, observations about student cooperation during the practicum were carried out. The results of observations of each cycle are evaluated as reflection material in the next cycle to improve students' skills and interests in accordance with the set targets. Data analysis was performed descriptively quantitative. Science practicum material is material in the Chemistry Study course on a micro scale. From the results of the T-test, there are significant differences. This means that the understanding of concepts and Science Process Skills increases after prospective teacher students experience the learning process of group assignments on Chemistry Study material on a micro scale. The results of understanding concepts, the average value increased from 62.42 to 86.68 and the science process skills increased the average value from 56.19 to 87.86. 94% students responded positively, namely agreed and strongly agreed that the process of science lectures with group assignments and micro-scale practicum. This can improve science process skills and understanding of materials in science courses at PGSD students.

ANALYSIS OF STUDENT SCIENCE PROCESS SKILLS THROUGH ECOLOGICAL PRACTICUMS AbstractThe study aims to analyze students' science process skills in ecology practical activities. The research subjects were 37 students. Data is collected through performance appraisals. The results showed that the science process skills of students were of high category. The score of observing activity skills was 11.49, formulating a problem of 10.59, identifying variables by 10.81, and making conclusions of 10.02. The skills scores for formulating hypotheses are high (10.47), but low in defining aspects of operational variables (6.19), designing experiments (6.53), and analyzing data/information (6.64). Based on these findings, it can be concluded that the ecology practicum activities that have been carried out can improve the science process skills of prospective teacher students in the aspects of observing, formulating problem formulations, identifying variables, and compiling inferences. Based on these findings, several recommendations are stated, first; Science process skills (SPS) must be taught continuously to biology majors because they are a major part of the education curriculum. Also, it must focus more on integrated skills. Second, pay attention to low SPS student teacher candidates' still exists, so it needs to be trained intensively in the low SPS because the SPS (defining operational variables, designing experiments, and analyzing data) is an SPS that is closely related to knowledge formation and problem solving. AbstrakPenelitian bertujuan menganalisis keterampilan proses sains mahasiswa pada kegiatan praktikum ekologi. Subjek penelitian 37 orang mahasiswa. Data dikumpulkan melalui penilaian kinerja. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa keterampilan proses sains mahasiswa berkategori tinggi. skor keterampilan aktivitas mengamati sebesar 11,49, merumuskan masalah sebesar 10,59, mengidentifikasi variabel sebesar 10,81, dan membuat kesimpulan sebesar 10,02. Skor keterampilan untuk merumuskan hipotesis berkategori tinggi (10,47), tetapi rendah pada aspek mendefinisikan operasional variabel (6.19), mendesain eksperimen (6.53), dan menganalisis data/informasi (6.64). Berdasarkan temuan ini dapat disimpulkan kegiatan praktikum ekologi yang telah dilaksanakan dapat meningkatkan keterampilan proses sains mahasiswa calon guru pada aspek mengamati, menyusun rumusan masalah, mengidentifikasi variabel, dan menyusun inferensi. Selain itu juga, berdasarkan temuan ini dapat dinyatakan beberapa rekomendasi, pertama; keterampilan proses sains harus diajarkan secara terus-menerus untuk para guru jurusan biologi karena itu adalah bagian utama dari kurikulum pendidikan. Selain itu, harus lebih fokus pada keterampilan terintegrasi. Kedua; memperhatikan masih adanya KPS mahasiswa calon guru yang rendah, sehingga perlu dilatihkan secara intensif pada KPS yang rendah tersebut, karena KPS tersebut (mendefinisikan operasional variabel, mendesain eksperimen, dan menganalisis data), karena KPS tersebut merupakan KPS yang berkaitan erat dengan pembentukan pengetahuan dan penyelesaian masalah.
