This study enhanced the 7E instructional model towards enriching the science inquiry skills of senior high school learners in General Chemistry 1. A total of 136 Grade 12 learners enrolled in the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) strand participated in the study. The study was composed of three phases. In Phase I, the generated themes nature of topics, learning environment, learner-related and teacher-related issues were found to be the causes of difficulty in science inquiry skill enrichment. The learners’ meaningful learning experiences during the process were encapsulated in Phase II. Finally, Phase III used the generated themes in the enhancement of 7E instructional model promoting inquiry-based and constructive learning among senior high school learners.

The implementation of group investigation by paying attention to the students' input quality is believed to be able to create a fun learning process and be able to reach competency units under performance criteria. The study aims to explain the students' input quality and to explain the role of group investigation in accommodating the input quality to students' competency improvement. This study uses two-factor measurement with a factorial version of the non-equivalent pretest-posttest control group design. The variables in this study are competency, group investigation, and students' input quality. The total samples are 116 students and each treatment decided 25 subjects as an analysis unit. The results of the study are the students' input quality varies in the accounting cycle, especially to process some information related to the closing process and reversing process, and the group investigation model accommodates input quality in improving students' competency.

“…To overcome these difficulties and help students with the processes of planning science investigations it is necessary to develop instructional interventions include giving them proper guidance (Taibu et al, 2021;van Riesen et al, 2018;Zacharia et al, 2015). However, the research that is examining the contribution of instructional interventions to students' abilities regarding planning investigations focuses mainly on secondary school students and on the control of variable ability (Arnold, Kremer & Mayer, 2014;Cayvaz et al, 2020;Chen & Klahr 1999;Edelsbrunner et al, 2018;Kazeni et al, 2018;Klahr & Nigam, 2004;Lazonder & Harmsen, 2016;Lubiano & Magpantay, 2021;Roth & Roychoudhury, 1993;Schneider et al, 2002;Zion et al, 2004). It has been pointed out that further study of this issue is necessary with elementary school students (Schalk et al, 2019).…”

The research that studies the improvement of elementary school students' science knowledge and the development of elementary students' abilities to use the scientific and engineering practices is restricted. The purpose of this research is to study the effects of an instructional intervention on the knowledge of the students of elementary school about electromagnets and their abilities to design science investigations. Instructional material about electromagnets was developed, based on an inquiry-based approach using the scientific and engineering practices, which was applied to 76 students of elementary school (12 years old). To evaluate the students' knowledge of electromagnets as well as their abilities to design science investigations, a questionnaire was developed which was completed by the students both before and after the instructional intervention. The data of the research were the answers of the students to the questionnaires. The data analysis showed that the students' knowledge about electromagnets as well as their abilities to design science investigations was improved, through the instructional intervention for electromagnets.
