Integrated STEM Project Based Learning Implementation to Improve Student Science Process Skills

Abstract

This research aims to investigate the influence of project based learning (PjBL) learning that integrates with science, technology, engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) on optical concepts with improved student science process skills. The method of study used is a descriptive method. Data is obtained from a learning observation sheet to determine the skills of the science process developed by students and polls used to capture student responses to learning. The instrument in this study uses a science process skills test in the form of an observation sheet and a subjective test. The science process skills tests used in this study include asking questions, observing, hypothesized, planning experiments, interpretation, and communicating. The Data that has been obtained is then analyzed descriptively. The results of this study show that students have all indicators of the science process skills that belong to the good category (average rating 79.33). Students give a positive response to learning, because they feel more understanding, improving motivation and learning interests.

Promoting Student's Problem-Solving Skills through STEM Project-Based Learning in Earth Layer and Disasters Topic

“…The normalized gain is 0.62, although categorized as a medium improvement based on Hake's Rule, this aspect has the smallest result. However, it can be said that the student problem-solving process has the positive enhancement that they can make a connection on cognitive knowledge on STEM Project-Based Learning activity (Bhakti et al, 2020). All the problem-solving aspects will be described in further detail.…”

Deskripsi hasil belajar siswa dengan menggunakan LKPD terintegrasi STEM-PjBL pada materi termokimia

“…Pembelajaran dengan pendekatan STEM efektif meningkatkan keterampilan pemecahan masalah peserta didik. Ada 6 karakteristik pembelajaran STEM: a. Pembelajaran STEM fokus pada masalah dunia nyata b. Pembelajaran STEM melibatkan proses desain teknik c. Menekankan siswa dalam pembelajaran langsung d. Melibatkan siswa dalam kerja tim yang produktif e. Melibatkan matematika dan sains f. Membantu siswa dan guru dalam pada pemecahan masalah dalam pembelajaran (Purwaningsih et al, 2020) Pembelajaran dengan pendekatan STEM mengajarkan siswa untuk mencari data melalui kegiatan serta langkah pemecahan masalah secara terperinci dan sistematik (Series, 2020). Pembelajaran dengan pendekatan STEM dapat diterapkan untuk memecahkan permasalahan dunia nyata.…”

E-Comics as an Interactive Learning Media on Static Fluid Concepts

“…In general, to increase interest in physics lessons, students must understand the concepts of physics very well and related to gadgets [3,4]. In the concept of physics, analysis and depiction are required in understanding it [5][6][7]. Images are a visual form of understanding something, one of the conditions of the image to apply the concept of physics that is to use android-based digital comics as a learning medium.…”
