“…In contrast, a student with low creativity cannot explain precisely, and the answer does not conform to the question. This finding is supported by the research result [14] that students' elaboration will be better if the teacher freed the student to think freely. In another research [16], students are able to elaborate on every teacher's question.…”

This study tries to describe students' creative thinking skills and creativity levels using blended learning. This research was conducted using a cross-sectional survey method to 70 students of State Madrasah Aliyah (Islamic State Senior High School) in Mataram. The result of the study shows that students with high creativity category were able to perform all the creative thinking indicators in comprehending the background and problem solving as in the correct concept. The students with the medium category did not show all indicators of creative thinking perfectly, less ability to answer systematically, and unable to mention the function of objects in their opinion. The students with low creativity categories showed an inability to write answers as in the right concept, were unable to make their own decision, and did not have a strong argument in expressing their opinion. The creativity development within blended learning shows that it can be a suitable alternative for teachers to perform the teaching process during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“…The result of this creative thinking is called creativity. Creativity will not emerge if there is pressure, limitation, and rigid rules in undertaking an activity [14]. Someone who has creative thinking tends to see something with a new perspective, utilizes his knowledge to solve the problems with new fresh ideas [15], [16].…”

This research aims to investigate the effect of socio-scientific issues (SSI) based instruction on preservice science teachers' soft skills and environmental awareness. By applying cluster random sampling, 83 preservice science teachers (PSTs) were selected from the Department of Science Education at a university in Indonesia. The participants were divided into two groups which comprised the experimental group who were taught using SSI-based instruction, while the control group received direct instruction. The quasi-experimental study was carried out through a pre-and posttest control group design. Data was gathered quantitatively using soft skills and environmental awareness questionnaires. The soft skills questionnaire comprised six sub-skills questions: communication, collaboration, problem-solving, creativity, teamwork, and social interaction. The environmental awareness questionnaire contained questions about the PSTs' attitudes, behavior, and willingness to act. These sub-skills were developed based on literature studies and reviews of previous studies. Face validity was conducted by the experts, and Cronbach's alpha coefficients of 0.84 (for soft skills) and 0.86 (for environmental awareness) were obtained. The data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The result showed that SSI-based instruction had a significant effect on improving preservice science teachers' soft skills and environmental awareness. After being taught using SSI-based instruction, all the sub-skills of the soft skills of the experimental group had increased compared to before. A similar trend was also found in their scores for environmental awareness. All the components of environmental awareness, after lecturing using SSI-based instruction, showed a significant increase compared to before. These results support the claim that SSI-based instruction fosters soft skills and promotes environmental awareness.

“…Science processes skills are developed through the learning process; the fundamental indicators of science processes skills that can be observed consist of observation, classification, measurement, communication, deducing, and predicting skills (Elvianasti et al, 2021). Students' science processes skills are developed if they are stimulated to be active, creative, and innovative (Nizaar et al, 2020). Through this research, students' science processes skills can be developed through natural science worksheet containing entrepreneurship integrated waste management activities.…”

“…The previous research result indicates that people with the highest knowledge of managing waste are 15-30 years old. Meanwhile, for people between the age of 50-60 years old, their knowledge is still low (Nizaar et al, 2020). So that a person's productive age in managing waste is 15-30 years old.…”

The waste processes skill is an essential skill to overcome environmental pollution problems. Unfortunately, teachers cannot yet train student skills due to the lack of a specific worksheet for specific activities. Waste processing activity would be more meaningful if it were integrated with entrepreneurship. This research aims to develop a natural science worksheet integrated to entrepreneurship that can train students' science processes skills through waste management activity. This research uses the developmental research method of ADDIE type. This research sample was junior high school students in Mataram. The data analysis of validity results uses the Aiken V index. The result of the Aiken V index from the material experts was V =0.84, categorized as very good, and the result from the worksheet design experts was V=0.83, categorized as very good. The observation reliability of science processes skills was analyzed using a Percentage of Agreement (PA). It was derived with a PA = 0.85, meaning that it meets the standard result of good observation. Students' science processes skill was observed in three activities, they are: making compost fertilizer, making handicraft products, and SWOT identification activity. Natural science worksheet integrated to entrepreneurship can train students to be skillful in making compost fertilizer and handicraft products. Meanwhile, the students consider that SWOT identification activity is still strange for them. Hence, as much as 10% of students have not been skilled yet in performing SWOT identification. The teachers need to be more active in arranging waste management, be it in school or assigning tasks to manage waste at home.
