The Influence of Scientific Independence towards Students’ Content Analysis and Science Process Skills on Cell Metabolism Topic

Abstract

Students commonly judge that cell metabolism topic is arduous since they only listen to their teacher and memorizing concept without a deep comprehension. Other than that, a direct explanation could not enhance the students' science process skills. Thus, this research intended to analyze the differences of the content-analysis and science process skills between the students experiencing a learning that oriented to scientific independence (experimental class) and those joining a direct learning (control class). The materials taught in both classes were cell metabolism. This study employed the quantitative of the quasi-experimental method. The research object was the students learning Biology. The students joining a scientific independence-based class were able to answer questions requiring analytical thinking. The relationship of the students' scientific independence towards the content analysis and science process skills was seen on the test. Based upon the statistical data analysis, the correlation significance was 0,038<0,05. Therefore, it concluded that there was a very significant correlation between the students' scientific independence towards the content analysis and science process skills.

Improving The Understanding of Science Concept Through Guided Discovery Learning Model in Azzahra Preschool Kindergarten

“…It is supposed to help us to determine the right relations between different values of science and to understand that science is not an isolated thing, but a totality which is not just a sum of its parts. (Ekawati et al, 2018) The students' content analysis and science process skills of the experimental group (scien¬tific independence-based learning with inquiry model) and control group (direct learning model) differed quite remarkably. Broszkiewicz's research suggested an integrated system between the concepts of knowledge and human action, so that it could be interpreted that science was influenced by the activities carried out by humans themselves in gaining knowledge.…”

The effect of ethnoscience-based course review horay learning towards cultural concept understanding and science process skills of the elementary school students

“…The application of the ethnoscience-based course review horay learning model has been found to affect both scientific process ability and understanding of cultural meaning at the same time, consistent with previous research findings. In this learning process, a problem, issue, or scientific phenomenon is identified using science process skills (Idris et al, 2022;Rosana et al, 2021), and new knowledge is imparted to encourage students to seek facts and concepts on their own (Ekawati et al, 2018). The practice of science process skills occurs during the process of observing, classifying (grouping), communicating, predicting, inferring (concluding), formulating hypotheses, interpreting (analyzing), controlling variables, as well as designing and conducting experiments (Elfeky et al, 2020;Ihsan et al, 2017;Setiawan & Sugiyanto, 2020).…”

“…The ability to solve problems in daily life will be influenced by the students' process skills (Tanti, Kuswanto, & Wardhana, 2020). In the learning process, a problem, an issue, or a scientific phenomenon is identified using science process skills (Idris, Talib, & Razali, 2022;Rosana, Kadarisman, Purwanto, & Sari, 2021), and they are created to impart new knowledge and encourage students to look up facts and concepts on their own (Ekawati, Iswari, & Lisdiana, 2018). The practice of science process skills occurs during the process of observing, classifying (grouping), communicating, predicting, inferring (concluding), formulating hypotheses, interpreting (analyzing), controlling variables, and designing & conducting experiments (Elfeky, Masadeh, & Elbyaly, 2020;Ihsan, Jamal, & Salam, 2017;Setiawan & Sugiyanto, 2020).…”
