scholarly journals Implementation of Inquiry Method Among of History Teachers in Secondary School

The purpose of this study is to investigate the implementation of the method of inquiry among history teachers in secondary schools in Pasir Gudang district. The main purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a significant relationship between the implementation of the method of teaching and teaching of History teachers especially the school location in Pasir Gudang district. Three aspects have been studied to address the research questions, namely, the level of knowledge, attitudes and skills of history teachers in implementing the method of inquiry in high school. The design used by the researcher was a quantitative research type of survey study involving 60 history teachers. Researchers used questionnaires as instruments and data were analyzed using content analysis techniques. The data obtained in this study were analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 10.0. The findings show that the level of knowledge, attitudes and skills of history teachers are at a moderate level in the implementation of inquiry-based methods of teaching and learning. History educators are less confident in applying inquiry methods because they are less skilled in inquiry-based inquiry techniques. This study found several factors to impede the implementation of research methods such as time constraints, lack of teaching aids and student attitude. Some suggestions have been made to the history teachers to further enhance the implementation of inquiry-based methods in teaching and learning.

The authors argue that intellectual shifts and related ideological debates have set new pedagogical demands on history teachers and new programmatic demands on faculties of education. In an attempt to relate the relevance of generating historical thinking (motivating the students to think like historians) to transformative education, the authors outline an history inquiry model based on Dewey’s educational theory. In this model, content knowledge and mastery of the subject matter is as critical as an understanding of teaching and learning history. The paper addresses the challenges set by a dominant relativist self-referential slant, the teaching of history in a multicultural class, and the tendency, in particular in social studies classes, to fall into presentism.

This study aims to identify the challenges faced by teachers and the efforts made in the implementation of HOTS-based history learning. In this study, a qualitative method was used by taking research at the Lab School in Kebayoran Jakarta. The analysis was carried using Strauss & Corbin grounded theory approach. The results illustrate three interrelated things, namely the concept of HOTS used, implementation, and challenges faced by history teachers. This study shows that the difficulty faced by history teachers in teaching and learning history based on HOTS is that assessment has been carried out using the HOTS model. On the other hand, training in learning that supports HOTS has not been provided to teachers, many curriculum demands, teacher competencies/skills, lack of time in the learning process, and the learning design made by the teacher does not yet support HOTS. The efforts to answer these challenge can be overcome by (1) increasing teacher understanding/mastery of HOTS concepts, (2) the planning of learning devices arranged to suit the needs of students, and (3) during the implementation of learning using models that support HOTS namely inquiry learning.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi tantangan yang dihadapi guru dan upaya yang dilakukan dalam pelaksanaan pembelajaran sejarah berbasis HOTS. Dalam penelitian ini, metode kualitatif digunakan dengan mengambil penelitian di SMA Lab School Kebayoran Jakarta. Analisis dilakukan dengan menggunakan pendekatan teori ground Strauss & Corbin. Hasil penelitian menggambarkan tiga hal yang saling terkait, yaitu konsep HOTS yang digunakan, implementasi, dan tantangan yang dihadapi oleh guru sejarah. Studi ini menunjukkan bahwa kesulitan yang dihadapi oleh guru sejarah dalam pengajaran dan pembelajaran sejarah berdasarkan HOTS adalah penilaian telah dilakukan dengan menggunakan model HOTS. Di sisi lain, pelatihan dalam pembelajaran yang mendukung HOTS belum diberikan kepada guru, banyak tuntutan kurikulum, kompetensi / keterampilan guru, kurangnya waktu dalam proses pembelajaran, dan desain pembelajaran yang dibuat oleh guru belum mendukung HOTS. Upaya menjawab tantangan ini dapat diatasi dengan (1) peningkatan pemahaman guru / penguasaan konsep HOTS, (2) perencanaan perangkat pembelajaran yang disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan siswa, dan (3) selama pelaksanaan pembelajaran menggunakan model yang mendukung HOTS yaitu pembelajaran inkuiri.
