The aim of this study was to determine the influence of guided inquiry learning model toward the improvement of students"s scientific literacy in integrated science learning on environmental conservation concept based on local wisdom of Baduy"s society. This study used Research and Development method through pretest and posttest test before and after the guided inquiry learning was done. The objects of this study were 31 students who were following the integrated science lecture in 5 th semester which is prospective science teacher. The results showed that there was an improvement in students' scientific literacy after guided inquiry learning (was applied) as shown with a gain value of 0.16 (N-Gain = 0.16) which was included in the medium category. Based on this result, it can be concluded that there is the influence of guided inquiry learning model toward the improvement of students"s scientific literacy in integrated science learning on environmental conservation concept based on local wisdom of Baduy"s society.
The development of Adobe Flash-based science e-modules on the theme of my health, my food for class VIII of junior high school is aimed at developing and knowing the level of validity of the Adobe Flashbased science e-modules that have been made. The research method used is research and development (Research & Development). The research and development model used is a modified 4D model from Triyanto (2012) which is limited to three stages. The stages are, the definition stage (Define), the design stage (Design), and the development stage (Develop). The results showed that the level of validity of the Adobe Flash-based science e-module, my food, my health, for class VIII junior high school obtained an overall average score of 95.4% with a very valid category.
The problem in this study comes from research data which shows that the students' higher-order thinking skills are still low and the teacher has not developed an optimal higher-order thinking skills ability test instrument. The purpose of this study was to develop and determine the level of validity of the test instrument for higher-order thinking skills on the concept of the digestive system in graders of 8 th junior high school. This study uses research and development which refers to the model of development of Borg and Gall with the restriction to five steps which includes potentials and problems, data collections, design of product, product of validation, and product of revision. The product produced in this research and development is in the form of a test instrument for higher-order thinking skills on the concept of the digestive system in graders of 8 th junior high school which consists of 27 questions. The results of the average percentage score of the 27 validation questions are 98% consisting of the validation results of material experts 99%, evaluation experts 97%, and educators 99%. It can be concluded that the 27 questions developed 100% are in the very valid category.
The aim of this research is to investigate the ability of multiple intelligence (MI) of male and female students from primary school. The total sample was 71 students consisting of 35 experimental group students and 36 in the control group in a primary school in Cilegon City, 2016-2017 academic year. In this study, the experimental group consisted of male students using learning with the MI and the control group consisted of female students using learning with the MI approach. Analysis of data obtained from this study, using the Independent Sample t-test and Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient. The findings of this study indicate that there is a statistically significant difference between the ability of MI in the experimental group and the control group, where the average score experimental group is higher. These results can be seen in the average score of MI ability in the experimental group is higher in visual-spatial, music, logical-mathematical, interpersonal and bodily-kinesthetic intelligence. The average score of MI ability in the control group is higher in verbal-linguistic, naturalistic, and intrapersonal. These concluded that the results of the Investigation of Multiple Intelligence (MI) of Primary School Students in the experimental group (male students) were better than the control group (female students).
Sparkol Videoscribe based learning media is an intermediary in the learning process created by using the Sparkol Videoscribe application to convey learning materials to students in order to achieve a learning goal. This research aims to develop a Sparkol Videoscribe based learning media and determine the level of validity. The method used was research and development adapted from the development model according to Thiagarajan which consists of 3 stages: (1) Define; (2) Design; And (3) Development. The research instruments used in this study are interviews and validation sheets. The results of this study showed that the validity rate of Sparkol Videoscribe based on learning media the theme of the green growth oriented to science literacy, was obtained with an average score of 79.91% with a valid category. Based on the results of expert validation of the development of Sparkol Videoscribe based on learning media the theme of the green growth oriented to science literacy is valid for use in the learning process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
