Scientific literacy is define as the capacity of use scientific knowledge in order to understand and help make decision about the natural world and the changes made it through human activity. Teachers are a major factor in the success of learning, therefore it is necessary to test the scientific literacy skill  of biology teacher students. This study aims to find out science literacy of biology teacher students and the corellation between of integrated science process skill, and reading comprehension skill of biology teacher students to their scientific literacy skill. The method for this research  used the survey method with correlational studies. The sample of this research is 81 students of biology teacher students of Jakarta State University. The results shows that the scientific literacy of biology education students is destitute. It is shown from the average score of their scientific literacy skill which is 45.58. This study shows that correlation coefficient obtained is 0,457 which means that there is correlation between integrated science process skill with scientific literacy skill. This study also shows that there is correlation between reading comprehension skill with with scientific literacy skill which correlation coefficient obtained is 0,214.

This research aimed to develop eco-friendly website in Biology learning which based on project activities for environmental pollution based on the National Curriculum. This Research and Development (R & D) using Borg and Gall strategy. The research data was gathered using quality evaluation eco-friendly website questionnaire, portfolio assessment sheet, pretest and posttest questions, student’s respond questionnaire, and interview sheet. Data analysis and discussion result has proved that (1) the eligibility of eco-friendly website based on the evaluation of the content expert, media expert and peer reviewer is excellent; based on the student’s evaluation, good. (2) The ability of student’s cognitive increased after having the Biology class activities in the eco-friendly project. Based on this research result, it is suggested to have further research to know the effectiveness of the eco-friendly website implementation toward the increase of student’s interests and learning motivation and other research variables. Moreover, eco-friendly website can be developed into a mobile application which can be accessed in any Android and iOS gadgets.

<p>The research is to know the relationship between achievement motivation (X1), and reading comprehension ability (X2) with science literacy ability of high school students (Y). The data is all students of class X SMA Negeri 9 Jakarta. Based on data analysis can be known coefficient correlation between X1 with Y is 0,326 correlation coefficient between X2 with Y is 0,392 and correlation coefficient between X2and X1with Y is  0,601. The motivation of pace, and the ability to read the students understanding contribute 36,1% to the literacy ability of high school students.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Keywords: </strong>Achievement motivation, critical thinking, reading comprehension, science literacy</p>

ABSTRAKPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara kemampuan membaca pemahaman, kemampuan berpikir tingkat tinggi, dan usaha adaptasi pada kemajuan teknologi dengan kemampuan literasi sains guru biologi SMA. Subjek penelitian adalah guru biologi SMA di Kabupaten Bekasi, berjumlah 64 orang. Sampel diambil secara simple random sampling. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif kuantitatif, dan uji hipotesisnya korelasi berganda dengan rumus Pearson Product Moment pada α=0,05. Hasil penelitian diperoleh nilai koefisien korelasi antara: membaca pemahaman dengan literasi sains sebesar 0,280; berpikir tingkat tinggi dengan literasi sains sebesar 0,252; membaca pemahaman dan berpikir tingkat tinggi secara bersama-sama dengan literasi sains sebesar 0,321. Hasil uji koefisien determinasi diperoleh 7,8% kemampuan membaca pemahaman memberi kontribusi kepada kemampuan literasi sains; 6,4% kemampuan berpikir tingkat tinggi memberi kontribusi kepada kemampuan literasi sains; 10,3% kemampuan membaca pemahaman dan kemampuan berpikir tingkat tinggi secara bersama-sama memberi kontribusi kepada kemampuan literasi sains. Hasil penelitian ini diharapkan dapat dijadikan rujukan bagi penelitian lainnya.Kata kunci: Berpikir tingkat tinggi, membaca pemahaman, literasi sains. ABSTRACTThe aim of this research was to determine the correlation between comprehension reading skill and higher-order thinking skill with scientific literacy skill for senior high school biology teacher. This research was conducted in Kabupaten Bekasi using 64 senior high school biology teachers as samples. Samples were taken by using Simple Random Sampling. The method used in this research was descriptive quantitative and research hypothesis tested by Pearson Product Moment in α=0,05. The results obtained correlation

Soybean (Glycine max L.) is annual crop that have high morphologies and yield components diversity. The research was conducted at the first season of 2011, the objective of the research were to find morphological, yield, and yield component of Soybean germplasm (Glicine max L.). The research was carried out at experimental station BB-BIOGEN Citayam, Depok, and laboratory of Gene Bank BB-BIOGEN. The experiment used randomized block design with 100 different accessions and three replications for each accession. Based on the observation, the morphological characters have many visual forms. They are as follows: growth percentage in which 19.33 -99%; growth types were determinate and indeterminate, the leave form was triangle to sharp; purple and white flowers; yellow and black seeds color. The range of values for each characteristic component are as follows: plant height 29,23 -104,25 cm; number of pods per plant was 23,6 -99,82; flowering time 33 -47 days after planting; 100 seed weight 5,98 -20,77 gram; maturing time 75 -96,67 days after planting; root nodule's weight 0,004 -0,109 gram; seed's weight 3,15 -11,45 gram/plant. Among the accessions, the highest yield was shown by B 4323 (643,27 gram/3,6 m2). Significant correlation was shown between soybean's yield components and yield which were plant's height, growth percentage, numbers of main stem's node, numbers of pods, seeds weight for each plant and root nodule's weight. 100 seeds weight showed significant negative correlation with soybean components.
