“…Science is considered as one of important subject matters in education which necessary to be taught from the lowest level of education, namely primary school (Braund & Reiss, 2019;Curran & Kitchin, 2019;Darling-Hammond et al, 2020;Faisal & Martin, 2019). Primary school is assumed as the beginning of education processes (Ferraz & Neves, 2017;Jacob & Rockoff, 2011).…”

This research aimed at analyzing the influence of 'Process Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning' model assisted by realia media, in which it was to improve the scientific literacy and critical thinking skill of primary school students, especially for the material of energy. This quasi-experiment research used single factor independent groups design. The research sample of this research were fourth grade students of SD Inpres Oeba 2 Kupang City, East Nusa Tenggara Province, of which students were in the academic year of 2019/2020. The technique of sample collection was carried out purposive sampling for 2 classes. The IVA class was used as the experimental class (POGIL model assisted by the realia media), in which it consisted of 30 students and the IVB class was used as the control class (expository learning) that consisted of 28 students. The learning was carried out in four meetings. The data of scientific literacy and the results test of critical thinking were collected by means of objective test on the energy material. Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) was used to analyze the data using significance level of 0.05. The results indicate that (1) There is a significant difference between the students' scientific literacy who gain the POGIL learning assisted by the realia media and the students' scientific literacy who get the expository learning; and (2) There is a significant difference between the critical thinking of students who get POGIL learning assisted by realia media and the students who get the expository learning. It can be concluded that there is a significant difference between the scientific literacy and the students' critical thinking taught by the POGIL learning that assisted by realia media to the students who use expository learning. Since there is a significant difference, it means that the POGIL learning assisted by realia media has an influence on the students' scientific literacy and critical thinking.

“…Science is a means to educate the aspects of knowledge, skills, and attitudes and values thoroughly. Pancasila values used as a way of life for Indonesian people are often seen as a form of pluralism and moderation that creates a balance of the interests of certain groups and the wider community (Faisal & Martin, 2019). That is, the inculcation of the values of Pancasila becomes essential to determine student self-identity.…”

Integrating Living Values Education by Bridging Indigenous STEM Knowledge of Traditional Salt Farmers to School Science Learning Materials

et al. 2020

The lack of bridges between formal science taught in schools and indigenous STEM knowledge is a problem that leads to the abandonment of cultural values and local wisdom. This article aimed to (1) describe the traditional salt production process by farmers and their living values education (LVE), and (2) transform indigenous STEM knowledge into scientific knowledge that can be applied to school science learning. This research was conducted in Central Java, Indonesia using observation, interviews, and literature and document review. A qualitative, ethnographic approach revealed that the traditional salt production process includes (1) draining the land; (2) making plots; (3) draining the pond plots; (4) compaction of the land surface; (5) seawater drainage; and (6) harvesting the salt. Identifiable living values include collaboration, simplicity, happiness, responsibility, and corporation. Indigenous knowledge is found in salt farmers' understanding of the characteristics and the process of salt crystal formation and their use of traditional equipment. Indigenous STEM knowledge can be transformed into school science learning materials as an example of integrating LVE.

“…The study was conducted at the physics teacher preparation program of one of the public universities in Indonesia. The Indonesian government, through the Ministry of Education (MoE), conceived educational higher educations that focus on preparing prospective professional teachers, namely, Teacher Training Institute (TTI) (Faisal & Martin, 2019). There are 421 universities classified as TTI (Kementerian Riset, Teknologi, dan Pendidikan Tinggi Republik Indonesia, 2015).…”

The concept of teacher identity plays an important role in improving teacher professionalism. However, most studies related to teacher identity in Indonesia are still rarely disclosed, especially the identity of physics teachers. Through a case study design, we aim to explore the identity of a student-teacher in the context of the Indonesian physics teacher preparation program. The participant was a fourth-year student, Syahrul (pseudonym), who was taking an internship program. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, learning observations, field notes, and document analysis, such as teacher syllabus, lesson plans, and students' worksheets. The results of this study reveal multi-layered perspectives of a physics student-teacher identity. We conclude that Syahrul's identity was constructed through rhetoric skills obtained from his involvement in student co-curricular activities such as involvement in a student organization formed by the university. Implications on physics teacher preparation programs are also discussed.
