Abstract

Students’ beliefs toward conspiracy theory (CT) of COVID-19 can be the indication of science education quality. However, a validated instrument to measure the level of students’ acceptance on the CT about COVID-19 still remains unexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the questionnaire of CT about COVID-19. The questionnaire consisted of 14 items and delivered online to the 400 students of Biology education in Indonesia. The data was analyzed using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). All items have standard deviation between 1.60 and 2.63, but one item was revealed to have insignificant correlation. The EFA result indicated that the other 13 items had loading factor 0.5 and were categorized into three dimensions. The third dimension was eliminated after the administration of CFA due to only one item in the dimension (λ>0.5). There were three items in the first dimension and two items in the second dimension resulted in λ<0.5. The correlated model from CFA disclosed good values of goodness of fit (GOF), χ2/df=2.527, root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) standardized root mean square residual (SRMR)=0.014, comparative fit index (CFI)=0.964, goodness-of-fit index (GFI)=0.969, adjusted goodness of fit (AGFI)=0.940, Tucker-Lewis index (TLI)=0.947, and normed fit index (NFI)=0.943. Therefore, the questionnaire is strongly recommended to measure the level of students’ beliefs toward the CT of COVID-19.

Abstract

Learning motivation has been examined for its positive influence on learning outcomes. However, little attention has been addressed to the development of measuring instruments of learning motivation in the context of reading the Quran in Indonesian higher education. This study was designed to develop a Quran learning motivation questionnaire. The Self-Determination Theory (SDT) was applied as a theoretical framework to explore the type dan level of motivation. Participants involved in this study were 420 students. They were divided into subsample one for exploratory factor analysis (N = 200) and subsample two with confirmatory factor analysis (N = 220). The questionnaire was developed with 12 item-three factors using five points Likert scale that can measure the learning motivation in reading Quran. The results of the study show that the level of student motivation is relatively low (M= 3.12), and the intrinsic motivation type (M= 3.99) is more dominant than extrinsic motivation survival (M= 2.99) and approval (M= 2.38) with a p-value of 0.000. In addition, it was found that female students (M= 3.19) had significantly higher motivation than male students (M= 3.04), with a p-value of 0.017.

Abstract

Apart from the importance of scientific literacy for the pre-service teachers as the key to success in becoming a teacher who can teach and make literate students, not many studies have revealed the contributing factors, especially the learning experience students. This study aims to measure the level of scientific literacy skills of pre-service students and contributed factors. One hundred and five students at state Islamic universities in Indonesia participated in this study. The data were collected in three stages. First, the level of scientific literacy skills using the Test of Scientific Literacy (TOSLS). Two students with the highest and lowest abilities in each batch were interviewed. Finally, the semester learning plan (RPS) and practicum instructions are reviewed. The mean was used to describe the level of scientific literacy skills, and one-way ANOVA to test differences in skill between the four groups based on the spent year in university. Data obtained from interviews and analysis were analyzed using content analysis techniques. As a result, pre-service biology teachers have a "medium" level of scientific literacy skills. There was a difference between the four groups with the highest and most significantly different fourth-year students. The primary cause of scientific literacy skills is the student learning experience in terms of learning strategies, assignments, evaluations, and practicums activities that are obtained by pre-service biology teachers. The results suggest the following implications for teaching: faculties must identify scientific literacy skills and carry out learning with learning strategies, assignments, evaluations, and practicum activities that support the growth of scientific literacy abilities of a pre-service biology teacher.

Abstract

This study aimed at explaining the capacity of pre-service teachers in designing teaching activities to foster Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS). The research participants were 35 pre-service teachers attending Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Teacher Education department at a state university in Malang. The research method was descriptive quantitative. The assessment was conducted by reviewing lesson plans designed by the pre-service teachers. Rubric within Shulman's framework was used for assessing the lesson plans by considering some key aspects of teaching to foster HOTS, namely content knowledge, the use of questions, and problem-solving. The results have revealed that the pre-service teachers did not show a good ability to interpret contents. Besides, the pre-service teachers tended to use clarifying questions in learning. This was due to the fact that the designed learning had not been based on problems. It can be said that the capacities of the pre-service teachers in both content knowledge and pedagogical knowledge were considerably low. Both types of knowledge have shown a significant correlation in the context of teaching to foster HOTS.

Abstract

This study aims to provide light on various aspects of education, including student activities and critical thinking, as well as the implementation of PQ4R learning methodologies. True Experiment study is conducted using a quantitative research methodology. A control group with a pretest-posttest design was used in the study. Probability sampling is a technique used in sampling that allows for population analysis. Class X SMA Muhammadiyah 10 Surabaya was the random sequence used to choose the sample using the lottery method. Written tests and observations served as the data collection methods. Descriptive and statistical T-tests were used in data analysis. The study's findings indicate that there are two categories for how well learning is implemented: fairly good and extremely good. This study demonstrated that learning strategies had an impact on students' critical thinking skills by using statistical tests with a significant level of 0.05 and a significant value of 0.00 to show that Ha was accepted and Ho was rejected. According to data on student learning activities, the first meeting scored an average of 81.8, which is in the "very good" category. Therefore 66.9 is generally considered to be "good." The second meeting qualified as "very good" with an average score of 92.5. According to the research, the implementation of learning management utilizing the PQ4R technique along with the Quiz Team model on critical thinking abilities and student activities at Meeting 1 and Meeting 2 fell into the Pretty Good and Very Good categories, respectively. Keywords: Student Activity, Critical Thinking Ability, PQ4R Strategy, Team Quiz

Abstract

Laboratory course activities often focus on "cookbook style," so their activities have not yet integrated with scientific thinking as an essential aspect. In this research, the laboratory experience of microbial analysis techniques was redesigned using alternative inquiry to involve students in isolating and characterising yeast to make the bread rise. This research aimed to determine the effect of implementing inquiry-based laboratory experiences on improving students' technical skills and the structure and characteristics of laboratory courses. The method used a single case study to obtain a complete picture regarding implementing laboratory course redesign. Laboratory experience activities consisted of pre-laboratory (reinforcement of theory) and investigation (preparation of methods, laboratory investigation activities, data analysis and presentation, and writing written reports). Overall, our results suggest that inquiry-based laboratory experiences can improve students' microbial analysis technique skills in strong collaboration. In addition, students considered several benefits from this learning, such as developing designs and conducting laboratory investigations close to the original context. With these results, educators can use the redesign of this laboratory course without applying full "course-based undergraduate research experiences" to students.

Abstract

Nearly one in five pupils in OECD nations do not possess the fundamental knowledge and abilities necessary to get by in today's communities (OECD, 2019), which is a sign of exclusion. There is an unfairness in that students from low socioeconomic origins are twice as likely to be low performers, suggesting that social or personal factors prevent them from fulfilling their educational potential. This study intends to investigate the achievement of the 21st Century Biology Skills Test (21CBST) and to compare it to students’ level of socio-economic status. The result (TIMSS) (2015) revealed that Indonesian students failed to achieve minimum standards in Science and Mathematics, with 33.3% achievement in science and 35% in mathematics for content domain and 33,3% in the cognitive domain. Comprising 37 multiple choice items, the 21st Century Biology Skills Test (21C-BST) includes representatives from five domains which are; i) Digital Age Literacy, ii) Inventive Thinking, iii) Effective Communication, iv) High Productivity, and v) Religion, Health and Civic. The respondents comprised 210 form students who took biology subject in school. The study revealed that students from high socio-economic status scored higher than their counterparts from low socioeconomic status. This paper concludes with some practical suggestions for improving students’ 21st-century skills, particularly within the context of biology teaching and learning.
