Mengeksplorasi Argumentasi dan Pengetahuan Pendidik Ilmu Pengetahuan Alam (IPA) Tentang Pemanasan Global

Abstract

This research is a qualitative research based on case studies to investigate the quality of the arguments and personal knowledge of science teachers about global warming. The subjects of this research were 20 science teachers from the same study program and university. Data collection techniques use interview methods and written arguments. Qualitative analysis of data from interviews and written arguments reveals that some science teachers use evidence during argumentation, but the evidence used is often not accurate enough to support or refute other people's claims or arguments and some other science teachers use personal perspectives in argumentation because science teachers have difficulty building evidence-based argumentation. In addition, some science teachers have similarities in knowledge about global warming, but there are some science teachers who differ in their belief in scientific expertise and the credibility of scientific evidence. This research is expected to help increase the knowledge and skills of science teachers to educate global warming to students and prepare students to make the right decisions about global warming in the future.Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif dengan berbasis studi kasus untuk menyelidiki sifat argumentasi dan pengetahuan personal pendidik IPA tentang pemanasan global. Subyek penelitian ini merupakan 20 pendidik IPA alumni dari program studi dan universitas yang sama. Teknik pengumpulan data menggunakan metode wawancara dan argumentasi tertulis. Analisis kualitatif data dari wawancara dan argumentasi tertulis mengungkapkan bahwa sebagian pendidik IPA menggunakan bukti selama berargumentasi, namun bukti yang digunakan seringkali belum cukup akurat untuk mendukung atau membantah klaim atau argumentasi orang lain serta sebagian pendidik lain menggunakan perspektif personal dalam argumentasi karena pendidik IPA mengalami kesulitan membangun argumentasi berdasarkan bukti. Selain itu, beberapa pendidik IPA mempunyai kesamaan dalam pengetahuan tentang pemanasan global, namun ada beberapa 247August 2019 | Volume 8 | Issue 2

The Effect of Scientific Approach on Junior High School Students’ Scientific Creativity and Cognitive Learning Outcomes

“…The scientific method aims to allow students to use all their capacities for idea acquisition, including higher-order thinking skills, one of which is developing pupils' scientific inventiveness. Teachers may better satisfy students' requirements for the design of scientific creativity by using suitable learning techniques and providing learning opportunities that encourage the development of students' scientific creativity (Henry et al, 2021;Septaria, 2019).…”

“…Even starting in 7th grade, the issue of global warming is covered. Ocean warms as an increase in the average temperature of the earth's atmosphere, sea, and land (Moura et al, 2020;Septaria, 2019). Global warming affects life and the ecosystem on Earth (Handayani & Putra, 2019).…”

Implementation of Project Based Learning on Student Reasoning on Covid-19 Disaster Mitigation

“…The reasoning of students can also be improved significantly if it involves students in solving problems that are around them (Shofiyah, 2018). Project-based learning is a model used to train students to solve various problems they face independently or in groups (Septaria, 2019). Giving problems in learning is able to hone students' reasoning power by analyzing the causes and effects caused and how to solve these problems.…”

Integrated Science Education Mobile Application: Edukit for 21st Century Skills

“…One of the themes on environmental pollution is that students are expected to be able to provide solutions based on environmental problems (Luthfi et al, 2017). Meanwhile, the theme of global warming is expected that students will be able to understand the process and evaluate the activities that cause global warming (Septaria, 2019). The learning objectives will be achieved if students have the ability and skills.…”
