Abstract

The purpose of this study was to find out that the application of the Socio-Scientific Issues (SSI) learning approach to the Solar System learning in junior high schools could affect the improvement of students’ written argumentation skills. To find out differences in junior high school students’ written argumentation abilities, the results of the treatment between learning using the Socio-Scientific Issues (SSI) approach and the conventional approach in learning the Solar System were compared. This research is a quantitative research with the type of quasi experimental research. This research was conducted in one of the junior high schools with the research sample chosen non-randomly. The instrument used is in the form of argumentative ability test questions which consist of six essay questions with argumentation indicators namely Claim, Evidence, and Reasoning. Based on the results of the analysis, it shows that the application of the Socio-Scientific Issues (SSI) learning approach to the Solar System learning in junior high schools can affect the improvement of students’ written argumentation skills. In addition, there were also differences in the ability to write arguments after being given treatment between students who applied the SSI and students who applied the conventional approach. Thus, the application of the SSI approach is quite effective in training junior high school students’ written argumentation skills.

Abstract

This community service activity aims to provide skills for physics teachers in Garut district to create STEM-based learning. Through good and proper learning, the delivery of material can be better absorbed by students. So that later students are expected to be easier to understand the concepts. The dedication activity consisted of two stages, the first stage of the socialization and the second phase of training. Socialization and training were followed by MA Physics teachers in Cibatu sub-district. The training material is training on STEM Education, the selection of STEM-based learning models, and assistance in making STEM-based media. The results showed that community service went well and smoothly. Based on the results of the questionnaire as a whole the teachers responded positively related to the implementation of this training. The teacher seemed very enthusiastic in listening to the explanation and practicing what the resource person said. In addition, the teachers stated that through the training, they gained a lot of benefits related to the addition of knowledge about learning alternatives that could be applied in Physics learning, even they felt an increase in creativity in making STEM-based learning and learning media. The obstacles that arise at this stage of the training are the problems of time that are felt to be lacking for training, therefore they give advice to hold ongoing training related to STEM learning.

Abstract

To effectively teach the complex concept of thermodynamics, appropriate and innovative teaching methods are needed to ensure a correct and in-depth understanding. This study aims to evaluate the application of the Problem-Based Learning (PBL) model in teaching thermodynamics to enhance students' comprehension of concepts and argumentation skills. The research utilized a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest non-equivalent control group. Of the 50 participants, two distinct groups were formed through purposive sampling. A total of 27 participants underwent PBL instruction, while the remaining 23 participants received conventional learning instructions. The results revealed that students who were taught thermodynamics using the PBL model exhibited significant improvement in both conceptual understanding and argumentation skills compared to the control group. These participants displayed high engagement in tackling thermodynamic problems. PBL taught them how to argue comprehensively, emphasizing the cultivation of 'how to think' rather than just 'what to think' in addressing thermodynamic challenges. Based on these findings, this study recommends that physics educators consider incorporating PBL as a teaching strategy to bolster students' conceptual understanding and argumentation skills in thermodynamics.
