Effectiveness of the Science, Technology, Society, and Religion, (STSR) on Achievement of Curricula Course and Development of the Inclinations towards Study for Students at Najran University in KSA

Redesigning Laboratories for Pre-service Chemistry Teachers: From Cookbook Experiments to Inquiry-Based Science, Environment, Technology, and Society Approach

“…The relevant literature concludes that the level of chemistry achievement can be improved through STSE-related-teaching approaches. Students, who experienced the STSE learning approach, showed significant increases in developing positive attitudes towards science, creativity skills, scientific literacy, social skills concerning the chemistry subject (Ahmed, 2018;M.-K. Lee & Erdogan, 2007;Yörük, Morgil, & Seçken, 2010;Zahara & Atun, 2018). Within this framework, this study aimed at designing a 16-week program to improve the PCTs" science process skills and competencies of planning an inquiry-based experiment by shifting cookbook activities to inquiry-based SETS approach.…”

Science Teaching Approach Ethno-SETSaR to improve pre-service teachers’ creative thinking and problem solving skills

“…The milkfish is considered a special dish that must be presented during a custom or a religious ceremony. SETS research integrated with religion was conducted by Ahmed (2018) concluding that it imporved students' motivation at Najran University, Saudi Arabia. SETS research in Indonesia integrating religious values was conducted by Wahyuni et al, (2017) concluding that students experienced improvements on religious attitudes, discipline and responsibility.…”

“…Therefore, apart from studying science, students must also get used to learning that integrates technology, environment and society and religion (SETS-aR). SETS research integrated with religion was done by Ahmed (2018) concluded that it could improve students' motivation at Najran University, Saudi Arabia. SETS research integrating religious values in Indonesia was conducted by Wahyuni, Astuti and Yuliati (2017) concluded that students experienced improvements on the aspects of religious attitude, discipline, and responsibility.…”

“…The characteristics of SETS learning are (a) teach the nature of science, (b) students are trained to apply science concepts with technology, (c) students are trained to think about the impact on society and the environment from the application of science and technology (4) students are asked to explain the relationship between elements -elements of SETS (5) In the context of constructivism, students can make decisions about solving problems that apply science and technology, and their impact on the environment and society (Binadja, 2005;Lau, 2013). SETS research integrating religion conducted by Ahmed (2018) concluded that it could increase students' motivation at Najran University, Saudi Arabia. SETS research integrating religion in Indonesia was done by Wahyuni et al (2017) came into conclusion that students experienced improvement in religious attitude, discipline and responsibility.…”
