This research was conducted at the Labschool Junior High School of Tadulako University where  the class VIII students being the research subjects. The research instrument used was an essay test and observation sheet. The data analysis technique used was quantitative data analyzed by inferential statistics, calculating the significance of the differences in the average of both groups of samples and qualitative data analyzed by using the stages of data reduction, data presentation and conclusion. The results showed that a guided inquiry learning model assisted by a simple practicum tool could foster the creative thinking skills of the students of Labschool UNTAD Junior High School in the indicators of flexible thinking, fluent thinking and originality.

This research aims to know the influence of guided inquiry learning with flash based Invertebramedia on the learning outcome of senior high school students. The research was done in SMA N 1 Pamotan using Quasi Experimental Design. The sample of the study was X MIPA 1 class (experimental group) and X MIPA 2 class (control group) which was taken by purposive sampling technique. The results showed that there were increasing of cognitive’s learning outcome of the experiment group was 80% and control group was 34.2%. There was a significant difference in the average of cognitive learning outcomes of the experimental group and control group. Analysis of affective and psychomotor aspects showed that learning outcome the experimental group higher that the control group. So, the activity of students during learning process was enchancement. The average of the student’s questionnaire responses after joining the learning was 84.9% in good criteria. The teacher and the students also gave good responses on the implementation of the learning in general. The conclusion of the research is the application of guided inquiry learning with Invertebramedia based on flash influence on high school student’s learning outcomes.

Basic phylogenetics and associated “tree thinking” are often minimized or excluded in formal school curricula. Informal settings provide an opportunity to extend the K–12 school curriculum, introducing learners to new ideas, piquing interest in science, and fostering scientific literacy. Similarly, university researchers participating in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) outreach activities increase awareness of college and career options and highlight interdisciplinary fields of science research and augment the science curriculum. To aid in this effort, we designed a 6-h module in which students utilized 12 flowering plant species to generate morphological and molecular phylogenies using biological techniques and bioinformatics tools. The phylogenetics module was implemented with 83 high school students during a weeklong university STEM immersion program and aimed to increase student understanding of phylogenetics and coevolution of plants and pollinators. Student response reflected positive engagement and learning gains as evidenced through content assessments, program evaluation surveys, and program artifacts. We present the results of the first year of implementation and discuss modifications for future use in our immersion programs as well as in multiple course settings at the high school and undergraduate levels.

The Difference

Kemampuan berargumentasi merupakan salah satu aspek dalam kemampuan berliterasi sains. Rendahnya skor pada survei PISA siswa Indonesia menunjukkan rendahnya kemampuan mereka dalam berargumen. Untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui perbedaan keterampilan berargumentasi dan kualitas argumentasi siswa yang dibelajarkan dengan model pembelajaran Process Oriented-Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL) berkonteks isu-isu sosiosaintifik, POGIL, dan konvensional pada materi asam basa. Rancangan penelitian adalah eksperimen semu posstest only design. Sampel terdiri dari tiga kelas di salah satu SMAN di Kota Malang. Data diperoleh dari hasil tes keterampilan berargumentasi tertulis siswa. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya perbedaan yang signifikan secara statistik terhadap keterampilan berargumentasi siswa di ketiga kelas penelitian (p=0.000). Kualitas argumentasi dianalisis menggunakan kerangka analitik Osborne. Pencapaian level argumentasi siswa kelas POGIL berkonteks isu-isu sosiosaintifik lebih tinggi daripada kelas POGIL dan konvensional. The effect of process oriented-guided inquiry learning with socioscientific issue contexts on high school students’ argument skills  AbstractThe argumentation ability is one of aspect of scientific literacy. The low scores on PISA survey of Indonesian students showed their low ability in argumentation. To address this problem,  this study aims to investigate the difference of students’argumentation skills who were taught using POGIL with socioscientific issues context, POGIL, and conventional learning. Research design was quasi-experimental postest only design. The sample consisted of three classes of a public senior high school in Malang. The data were obtained from students’ written argumentation. The result of this study showed significantly different statistic on students’argumetation skills in three classes (p=0,000). The quality of students’argumetation were classified using analytical framework by Osborne. Achievement of the argument level of POGIL class students contexted sociosaintific issues higher than POGIL class and conventional class.

Discovery Program

Abstract – With the diverse nature of the biomedical engineering (BME) field, high school students are often limited in their understanding of the area during consideration for post-secondary study. In effort to improve student comprehension, as well as provide a unique learning opportunity in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) curriculum, graduate students at the Institute of Biomaterials and Biomedical Engineering (IBBME; University of Toronto) have developed and launched the IBBME Discovery Program. In strong collaboration with high school educators, graduate student instructors designed and executed activity- and designbased learning focused on applicable topics in BME aligned with Ontario high school science curriculum learning outcomes. Results from this pilot suggest strong student engagement in data-based experimental learning, and graduate student development in knowledge translation and activity design through collaboration.  These results provide a strong foundation for program growth and quantitative assessment.
