Reasoning patterns and modes of prospective biology teachers on embryology learning with TPACK framework

Abstract

The study was aimed at determining the effectiveness of learning using TPACK (Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge) framework in helping the change of reasoning patterns and modes of Biology prospective teachers so that it facilitates in encompassing the Embryology as one of abstract concepts. The subjects used were 49 students of Biology teachers who were having a contract in Embryology course in Biology Education Study Program, in a private educational institute in Bandung. The research design used was quasi-experimental with time-series design type. The measurement of the level of reasoning ability, patterns, and modes of the students were done through the Test of Logical Thinking (ToLT) three times (before the learning program takes place, after learning the first four main subjects, and after the learning program was over). The results showed that the Embryology learning with TPACK framework could directly change the from concrete and transitional reasoners categories to formal reasoners. The learning with TPACK framework also influenced the shift of the students’ logical thinking modes; from the ownership of proportional and/or correlational mode to the ownership of two or three reasoning modes between proportional, probability, correlational, and combinatorial, except the variable control mode.

Development of an E-Book Based on Local Wisdom of Fish Ponds in Gresik to Train Scientific Reasoning Skills

“…The low theoretical reasoning indicator is because students have not yet mastered how to connect an event with interconnected concepts (Firdausi et al, 2020). The proportional reasoning indicator is caused by students who still have not mastered the ability to determine variable comparisons and interpret relationships between variables (Nurdiani et al, 2019;Hadi et al, 2021). The probabilistic reasoning indicator is because students are still unable to interpret the data presented (Puspita Hadi et al, 2021).…”

Meningkatkan Kemampuan Analisis Peserta Didik pada Materi Sistem Saraf melalui Pembelajaran Blended Learning berbasis TPACK

“…Hasil penelitian terdahulu yang menerapkan TPACK dalam pembelajaran yang dikombinasikan dengan metode pembelajaran blended learning me-nyatakan bahwa penerapan TPACK dalam pembela-jaran berhasil mengatasi permasalahan dalam pembe-lajaran, yaitu membantu dalam mengajar dan men-capai tujuan pembelajaran (Nurdiani et al, 2019). Hasil penelitian lain menunjukkan bahwa dengan menerapkan metode Blended learning dalam kerang-ka TPACK dapat meningkatkan kemampuan berpikir kritis dan hasil belajar peserta didik (Fatimah, 2020).…”

Alternative waste management: composting and biochar conversion for metal remediation

“…This illness may cause nitrogen and other nutritional deficits in oil palm trees, causing pale discolouration and stunted development. Developing oil palm plantations on tidal marsh terrain requires substantial technical attention and significant land preparation expenditure (Azizah et al, 2023;Hizqiyah et al, 2023;Nurdiani et al, 2021). Pyrite content is another tidal land feature.…”
