PISA and TIMSS results have been used as a basis for educational reform, but unfortunately, teachers’ understanding of PISA and TIMSS tests is rarely investigated. We evaluated 149 sophomore preservice chemistry teachers’ achievement in TIMSS and PISA-like test. As a way to reflect on TIMSS and PISA results, we compared preservice chemistry teachers’ achievement to PISA and TIMSS results for Indonesia and the international students. Results suggested that, to a certain degree, preservice chemistry teachers have a better chemical literacy than Indonesian students and a somewhat similar chemical literacy with international students.

Deaf students’ learning characteristics should be accommodated in their teaching and learning material. This article reported the results from the preliminary implementation of learning media for teaching mathematics to deaf students. The developed media consist of verbal and nonverbal communication, and implementation results suggested that there was students’ preferential difference in responding to a particular type of communication. Further research with large scale samples is still needed to determine the effect of the media in improving deaf students’ mathematics achievement and how preference in a learning mode influences mathematics achievement.

The purpose of science education is to develop scientific literacy. This study investigated the effectiveness of Laboratory-Based Learning (LBL) in improving students’ scientific literacy. Samples were 70 seventh grade students in Bogor-West Java in which they were divided into two experimental groups, LBL and Non Laboratory-Based Learning (NLBL) group. Research instrument was scientific literacy test with 30 multiple choice questions about environmental pollution. Results suggested that both types of learning increase students’ scientific literacy, although LBL proved to create better scientific literacy improvement. Content and science process domain improvement for every indicator is discussed.

Assesment is an inseparable part of an educational program. The aim of this research was to develop peer assessment and self-assessment for evaluating students’ performance in redox reaction laboratory. This study was conducted in one of high school in Bandung with 42 students as its sample. Peer assessment and self-assessment instrument were found to be valid dan reliable. Implementation stage further showed the potency of this instrument as students performance assessment in which peer and self-assessment was highly correlated with expert assesment results.

Reflective abstraction can provide an insight into students’ understanding of mathematical concepts. The purpose of this qualitative research was to identify students' understanding of derivative based on their reflective abstraction in solving graphically-represented question. Students’ understanding of derivative was evaluated by their ability in solving assignment concerning derivative and interview results. Results suggested that students use algebraic strategy to solvegraphically-represented question. Based on reflective abstraction, students constructed their knowledge through interiorization, reversal, coordination, encapsulation, and generalization. Difficulties that the students faced in solving graphically-represented question reflected from their answer and interview results are discussed.

Inquiry-based learning is considered as an effective learning pathway for teaching science, but unfortunately, elementary preservice science teachers still have an inadequate understanding of inquiry-based learning. This study investigated the role of scaffolding as a supporting method for improving preservice elementary science teachers’ understanding of inquiry-based learning and their skills in implementing inquiry-based learning through peer teaching. Results suggested that scaffolding improves preservice elementary science teachers’ understanding of and skills in implementing inquiry-based learning because features in scaffolding facilitate understanding and teaching skills improvement.

Misconception is one of the obstacles that may reduce learning effectiveness. In this study, we develop two-tier multiple choice diagnostic test instrument that can be used to identify students’  misconceptions on chemical bonding. Two-tier test with 25 test items was proven to be valid and reliable. This diagnostic test was able to detect students’ misconceptions including misconceptions about element stability, ionic bonding, covalent bonding, covalent coordinate bonding, metallic bonding, as well as characteristics and physical property of each bonding. The identified misconceptions could serve as a reference for teachers in remediating students’ misconception.

Students ability in making mathematical connection is one of the key goals in mathematics education. This study describes obstacles to students’ productive connective thinking in solving mathematical problems. Obstacles experienced by the students when solving mathematical problems were identified based on connective thinking networks completeness according to Thosio’s thinking scheme. Think aloud protocol worksheet and recording were analyzed descriptively. In solving mathematical problems, students faced obstacles in every thinking stage. They were unable to make a complete connective thinking network in cognition, formulation, reconstruction, and inference stage.

Students’ misconceptions still become major focus of educational research in recent years. Information on students’ conceptual understanding and students’ misconceptions is necessary so that the teachers can detect misconception experienced by students. This study evaluated students’ conceptual understanding and misconceptions about Fungi using four tier diagnostic tests. Results showed that students' understanding was considered as poor. Misconceptions rates were also high with misconceptions about characteristics, reproduction, growth factor, classification, and Fungi role in life as misconceptions commonly found in the students.

Physics education has long emphasized the importance of developing students’ scientific reasoning. This study investigated the development of students’ scientific reasoning using inquiry-based learning with computer simulation. Students’ scientific reasoning was probed by Lawson Classroom Test of Scientific Reasoning (LCTSR) and questionnaire to explore students’ response to the learning strategy. Results showed that all of six scientific reasoning aspects (material and volume conservation, proportional thinking, variable identification and control, probabilistic thinking, correlative thinking, and hypothetic-deductive thinking) was enhanced after learning with average N-Gain reflected the results. Aside from scientific reasoning enhancement, students responded positively to the learning strategy.
