Scientific Approach with Problem Posing Integrated in Introductory Microeconomics Theory, whether Work?

Abstract

This study aims to improve student learning outcomes in the introductory microeconomics theory subject. This research is included in c lassroom action research with three c ycles. The model is use a scientific approac h integrated with problem posing and was conducted on business educ ation student Class A Universitas Negeri Surabaya. This learning model required the students to create a problem. When the students create a problem, they also think about the answer. This stage will make the students thinking twice. The students understanding will increase and have positive impac t on improving student learning outcomes by those ac tivity. This paper provides a new view to collaborate between a scientific approach integrated with problem posing to improve student learning outcomes.

The Effectiveness of Scientific Approach Using E-Module Based on Learning Cycle 7E to Improve Students’ Learning Outcome

“…There are various ways that can be done by the teacher, one way is implementation of scientific approach. The scientific approach is a learning process that has the characteristics of "doing science" with activities designed in such a way with the aim that students are able to build and develop concepts, theories, laws or principles through the implementation of five stages systematically consisting of (1) "Observe", observation, (2) "Ask", formulating the problem through questioning and constructing hypothesis by developing and making a model, ( 3) "Gather information", collecting data or references in various ways that can lead to the discovery of facts or concepts, for example by investigating, (4) "Associate", analysing and managing, summarizing data; and (5) "Communicate", communicating information and conducting an evaluation (Hosnan, 2014;Laverty et al, 2016;Meyer, Capps, Crawford, & Ross, 2012;Prakoso, Fitrayati, & Dewi, 2018). Activities undertaken at each stage provide an active student opportunity so that the learning process takes place in student centered learning.…”

Efektivitas Bahan Ajar E-Book Berbasis Scientific Approach pada Mata Pelajaran Ekonomi

“…Dalam aspek scientific approach peserta didik dilatih aktif dan tanggap dengan permasalahan disekitar, sehingga peserta didik terbiasa menyelesaikan permasalahan secara solutif. Pernyataan tersebut sesuai dengan penelitian Prakoso, Fitrayati, & Dewi (2018) bahwa pendekatan saintifik dapat melatih peserta didik dalam menyelesaikan masalah dan dapat meningkatkan hasil belajar. Sesuai dengan Setyowati, Albab, & Tsalatsa, (2015) yang menyimpulkan, apabila pembelajaran didalamnya terdapat tahapan saintifik maka pembelajaran dapat lebih bermakna dikarenakan peserta didik dapat merasakan lebih nyata setiap tahapan pembelajaran, menjadikan peserta didik lebih nyaman sehingga materi yang disampaikan lebih mudah dipahami oleh peserta didik serta keterlibatan pada proses pembelajaran lebih dirasakan.…”
