Investigating the Science Process Skills in Cycle 3 National Science Textbooks in Lebanon

Abstract: The purpose of this study is to examine the level of inclusion of basic and integrated science process skills in Lebanese national science text books for cycle 3 and to compare the basic and integrated process skills across subjects (physics, chemistry and biology) and within the same subject across the 3 years (grades 7, 8 & 9). This was to investigate the compliance between the content of the textbooks and the new evaluation system set by the Lebanese government. For instance, the study focused on the SPS th… Show more

“…In line with Triatno's opinion, Kazeni (2005) reveales that the development of science skills enables students to acquire the skills needed to solve daily problems. Likewise the opinion of Zeitoun and Hajo (2015) states that science process skills are important indicators for students in solving problems. Therefore, students need to master science process skills.…”
