It is certain that the Industrial Revolution 5.0 has entered the world of education, so this Industrial Revolution 5.0 is a challenge for the quality of education in Indonesia. One way to improve the quality of education is practicum activities using Laboratory Activity Designs (LAD) that are in accordance with the demands of the curriculum. This study aims to provide an overview of the quality of blood structure LAD in high school and reconstruct it to improve strudents’understanding. This research is a descriptive study and the subject of this research is blood structure LAD. The sampling technique that used is purposive sampling with a total sample of 6 LAD, consisting of 2 LAD from 2006 curriculum or KTSP, 2 LAD from 2013 curriculum, and 2 LAD from 2013 revised 2016 curriculum. The instruments that used are relevance analysis instruments, competency analysis and practical analysis, and knowledge construction analysis. The findings showed that the blood structure LAD was not good yet because there were still problems with competence, practice and knowledge construction. The solution to this problem is to improve the existing LAD and consider it based on the relevant aspects of competency, practicality and knowledge construction. Abstrak. Revolusi Industri 5.0 dapat dipastikan telah memasuki dunia pendidikan, maka revolusi indeustri ke-5 ini menjadi tantangan bagi kualitas pendidikan di Indonesia. Salah satu cara untuk meningkatkan kualitas pendidikan yaitu dengan kegiatan praktikum menggunakan Desain Kegiatan Laboratorium (DKL) yang sesuai dengan tuntutan kurikulum. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memberikan gambaran mengenai kualitas DKL struktur darah dan mereonstruksinya guna meningkatkan pemahaman peserta didik. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif dan subjek penelitian ini adalah DKL struktur darah. Teknik sampling yang digunakan yaitu purposive sampling dengan total sampel sebanyak 6 DKL, terdiri dari 2 DKL kurikulum 2006 atau KTSP, 2 DKL kurikulum 2013 dan 2 DKL kurikulum 2013 revisi 2016. Instrumen yang digunakan meliputi instrumen analisis relevansi, analisis kompetensi dan analisis praktikal serta analisis konstruksi pengetahuan. Hasil temuan menunjukkan DKL struktur darah belum baik karena masih terdapat masalah pada aspek kompetensi, praktikal dan konstruksi pengetahuan. Solusi untuk permasalahan ini adalah memperbaiki DKL yang ada dengan pertimbangan aspek relevansi, kompetensi, praktikal dan konstruksi pengetahuan.
Recent research shows that students’ ability to read and create phylogenetic trees (tree thinking) is low, meanwhile phylogenetic analysis has become one of the demands on the 2016 version of the 2013 curriculum. Learning using phylogenetic trees is thought to be able to train critical thinking skills as the demands of the 21st century. However, the use of phylogenetic worksheets, especially on Spermatophyte classification, is often skipped in learning activities at School. This research aims to determine the improvement of students’ tree thinking and critical thinking skills after implementing phylogenetic worksheets in Spermatophyte learning as a visual representation of tree-thinking abilities. This research type was experimental research with one group pretest posttest design that involving 29 students. The research data collection methods were test and interview. The research instruments that used are 25 multiple choice questions of tree-thinking test instrument and 10 essay questions of critical thinking test instrument. Data then analyzed by N-Gain test. The interview was conducted to obtain supporting data. The results showed that learning by implementing phylogenetic worksheets was quite effective in increasing critical thinking skills and tree-thinking skills with an average increase of both in the medium category. As a result, the spermatophyte classification learning using phylogenetic worksheet can be used as an alternative learning activity because it can improve tree thinking and critical thinking skills.
This study aims to obtain information and to analyze the students' interest in using math to understand biology, the perceived usefulness of math, and the cost of using math in biology learning in quantitative literacy-based ecosystem instruction. The research used a quasi-experimental design with 131 six grade students in two high schools. The biological-mathematical attitude was obtained with the Math-Biology Values Instrument (MBVI) questionnaire and the quantitative literacy was assessed using multiple-choice questions. The results show that the majority of students feel interested, feel the benefits, and feel the importance of mathematical abilities in solving biological problems, and almost all students do not experience difficulties with mathematics in ecosystems instruction. Quantitative literacy-based learning helps the student to have a very high level of interpretation and calculation, and also a high level of representation and analysis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
