THE STREAM APPROACH (SCIENCE-TECHNOLOGY-RELIGION-ENGINEERING-ARTS-MATHEMATICS) PROVIDES STUDENTS 'THINKING HABITSAbstractThis research develops an Applied Biology learning program using a science-technology-religion-engineering-arts-mathematics (STREAM) approach that can equip students with habits of mind. These thinking habits include systems thinking skills. The Applied Biology learning content includes compost making, nata de soya making, and biopesticides making. The research was carried out in the Microbiology course on the topic of Applied Microbiology. During the lectures, the learning process combines the 3Es learning cycle model (exploration-explanation-expansion phase), Jigsaw-type cooperative, and a combination of various learning methods. Students are trained in scientific process skills and designing /engineering skills. The products of the program consisted of modifications to the syllabus and the microbiology course matrix, performance tasks on students' worksheet, the STREAM approach scheme, system thinking skills' question instruments, concept map rubrics and scores. The resul indicate that system thinking skills in Applied Biology learning content could be equipped to students using the STREAM approach. AbstrakPenelitian mengembangkan program pembelajaran Biologi Terapan menggunakan pendekatan science-technology-religion-engineering-arts-mathematics (STREAM) yang dapat membekalkan kebiasaan berpikir. Kebiasaan berpikir tersebut diantaranya keterampilan berpikir sistem (KBS). Konten Biologi Terapan antara lain pembuatan kompos, nata de soya, dan biopestisida. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada perkuliahan Mikrobiologi pada pokok bahasan Mikrobiologi Terapan. Selama pembelajaran memadukan model siklus belajar 3Es (fase eksplorasi-pengenalan konsep-aplikasi konsep), kooperatif tipe Jigsaw, dan kombinasi metode belajar. Mahasiswa dilatihkan keterampilan proses saintifik dan mendesain (engineering). Produk program terdiri dari modifikasi pada silabus dan modifikasi matriks perkuliahan Mikrobiologi, tugas kinerja (task) pada lembar kerja mahasiswa (LKM), skema pendekatan STREAM, instrument soal KBS, dan skor beserta rubrik peta konsep. Hasil penelitian mengidikasikan bahwa KBS dapat dibekalkan kepada mahasiswa menggunakan pendekatan STREAM.

This study aims to obtain a description of improving the students' skills to produce practical report products. Research on the study of Plant Physiology is the practice of making Compost and Aquaponic. The method was mixed embedded. The primary data was quantitative data in the form of result of product assessment of lab report. The supplementary data was qualitative data. It was obtained from interview and field notes. The research was done to one class consisting of 44 students in Biology Education Program. The sample was chosen purposively. Instruments are student worksheets, product assessment sheets and scoring, interview sheets, and field notes. Indicator of product rubric on aspects of Science, Technology, Religion, Engineering, Art and Math. The data analysis was done by counting the increase of score on the product of the report of Compost and Aquaponic laboratory. The results showed that students' ability in the aspects of Science did not increase, it is in contrast with the ability of students in aspects of Technology, Religion, Engineering, Art and Mathematics have increased. The implications of the research are the habit of using STREAM approach in other lectures.

Traditional Biotechnology Content as a Media in Engaging Students with System Thinking Skills. A study about how to engage students with System Thinking Skills as part of 21 stcentury skills into Traditional Biotechnology content was conducted using Science-Technology-Religion-Engineering-Arts-Mathematics approach through one group pretestposttest design. The study involved 43 students from a 5 th semester in one University determined purposively. Data were collected through a system thinking test and interview format. After being received through instruments mentioned before, data were then processed using percentage criterion n-gain on a test and analyzed the result of student's interview. Research results show 60.47% of n-gain (moderate) with the best achievement is in the ability to explain the function of each component, while the weakest performance is in the ability to analyze the energy cycle. The result of the interview shows that the students can follow the lecture stages due to the repetitive and continuous assignment. The constraints found are in managing assignments within lecture time and less explored on religious aspects. Thus, Traditional Biotechnology content can facilitate students on system thinking skills.
