Abstract

This research aims to determine the profile of science practicum lectures, logical thinking abilities, and systems thinking skills of prospective science teacher students in Sorong Regency. This research is a case study with pre-research, implementation, and final/post-research stages. The subjects of this research were students who were or had contracted for science practicum course. The instruments used are analysis lists, logical thinking test instruments, systems thinking scales, and systems thinking skills tests. Interviews were also conducted to support the data that had been obtained. The research results show that (1) the practicum activities that have been running so far have only trained skills in collecting, processing, and analyzing scientific research data. (2) The contents of the practicum instructions do not train students' thinking skills, such as critical thinking, systems, or problem-solving. (3) Students' logical thinking abilities are relatively evenly distributed at proportional, correlational, and combinatorial reasoning levels; however, the majority of students have reasoning in the transitional category, and there is quite a high level of concrete reasoning. (4) Students' systems thinking skills are relatively low, especially forest thinking skills. Different and innovative practicum lecture approaches need to be developed to improve logical thinking and systems thinking skills for prospective science teacher students in Sorong Regency. Low levels of logical thinking and systems thinking skills will have implications for achieving skills at the next level, such as the skills needed today, namely 21st-century skills.

Abstract

Dadiah is a traditional food from the Minangkabau ethnic group of West Sumatra. Dadiah is made from buffalo milk which is fermented in bamboo and left for several days to form a yogurt-like structure. In addition, it is not uncommon for traditional foods that exist in various regions to have high nutritional value and are very good for health as well as through natural manufacturing and processing processes. Some of the sustainability goals are goals to build awareness of healthy living, healthy food sources, and responsible production processes. Thus, this traditional food has a very high potential to implement ESD. This traditional food can be used as a contextual learning resource that can support ESD values. In this study, the content analysis method was used to explore the potential of scientific concepts and ESD values based on kinds of literature. The criteria for content analysis are the relevance to scientific concepts, alignment with ESD values, and the coverage of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). There are the curriculum, textbooks, and sources from UNESCO about SDGs. This study showed that there are four basic competencies in science learning that are related to Dadiah as the theme. In addition, Dadiah can cover the five goals of the SDGs (goals number 2, 3, 8, 12, and 15) and can stimulate the achievement of sustainable key competencies in learning. Based on the results of this study, Dadiah which is a traditional food has the potential to be implemented in science learning to achieve Sustainable Development Goals.

Abstract

This study aims to explain the effect of Teams Game Tournament type cooperative learning model on motivation and learning outcomes of students in class VIII SMP Negeri 14 Palu. This type of research is a Quasi Experiment (pseudo experiment), the research design is a pretest-posttest nonequivalent group design . This research was conducted at SMP Negeri 14 Palu using two classes as research samples, namely the experimental class of 30 students and the control class of 31 students using the Random Sampling. Data collection use interviews, test questions, questionnaires. The research instrument uses teaching modules, test questions, questionnaires. The results of this study indicate that there is an effect of Teams Game Tournament type cooperative learning model on student motivation and learning outcomes. Based on hypothesis testing with the t test, the results of learning motivation are 0.000 <0.005 and learning outcomes of 0.000 <0.005 so that it has a significant effect. This can also be seen from the average value of learning motivation at the final meeting of the experimental and control classes. The experimental class had an average of 83% while the control class had an average of 62%. The average value of posstest learning outcomes of the experimental and control classes. The experimental class had an average of 82 while the control class had an average of 52. This shows that the use of the Teams Game Tournament type cooperative learning model can increase student motivation and learning outcomes.

Abstract

Macrobenthos are animals that live at the bottom of waters, both freshwater and seawater. This study aims to describe the diversity of macrobenthos as a bioindicator of water quality in Lake Poso and its use as a learning medium. This study uses a purposive random sampling method with a sampling technique using free collection with a roaming path method of ± 100 m per station. While the data analysis technique uses quantitative descriptive. The results of the study showed that the macrobenthos diversity index was obtained at station I (2.51) and then followed by station II (2.44) and station III (2.19). While the macrobenthos diversity index in Lake Poso is 2.26 and is categorized as a moderate level of diversity. The high macrobenthos diversity index at station I is because the macrobenthos habitat is still maintained and surrounded by forest vegetation so that the macrobenthos found are quite diverse. The development of research results as a learning media in the form of a pocket book, from the validation results including media validation, content validation, and design validation conducted by 3 expert lecturers and the feasibility test tested on 20 students obtained a percentage of 79.6% and is worthy of being used as a learning media.
