Innovative Learning Model: Improving The Students' Scientific Literacy Of Junior High School

Abstract

In the strict challenges faced by society, a paradigm shift is needed in the education system that can provide a set of 21st century skills needed by students to deal with every aspect of global life. One of them is scientific literacy. Unfortunately, the scientific literacy ability of students in Indonesia is still low. The Inquiry and SETS models have been widely applied to improve students' scientific literacy skills. However, weaknesses are found such as: students still cannot use their content knowledge to explain scientific phenomena perfectly; and the need for more in-depth inquiry activities so that students' abilities in designing and evaluating scientific investigations obtain excellent results. Therefore, innovation was created to develop the BRADeR learning model based on consideration of the strengths and weaknesses of the inquiry model and SETS as well as theoretical and empirical support. This research serves as a preliminary study in the process of developing the BRADeR model to improve students' scientific literacy skills. This study includes a needs analysis and literature review. The results show that innovation can be maintained as a basis for developing a hypothetical model of the BRADeR learning model. The syntax of the BRADeR model includes: brainstorming, reading, analyzing, decision making, and reflection. The hypothetical model of the BRADeR learning model must be tested to meet the aspects of validity, practicality, and effectiveness to improve the scientific literacy skills of junior high school students.

Profile of Analytical Thinking Skills Through Inquiry-Based Learning in Science Subjects

“…The teacher involves students in scientific questions or problems raised in learning so that they can invite students to explore, make scientific explanations by connecting knowledge and ideas they have, creating opportunities for students to add, apply, evaluate things that have been learned (Simamora et al, 2020). Inquiry-based learning implementation in the classroom, but there are two things that need to be prepared, namely determining learning objectives and identifying scientific questions or problems that will be raised in learning (Arends, 2012).…”

Effectiveness of STEM-Based Mind Mapping Learning Model to Improve Students' Science Literacy in the Era of Revolution 4.0

“…Science literacy influences students in facing the industrial revolution 4.0 (Bonney et al, 2009;Winarni, 2020;Jufrida et al, 2019). Furthermore, science literacy helps students solve science problems that occur in life (Simamora et al, 2020;Supriyadi et al, 2023;Dios et al, 2020). Science literacy skills help students more easily learn how to analyze problems that occur in life (Anderson et al, 2020).…”
