Abstract
Prospective teacher students must have good science process skills to create learning that focuses on science process skills-based learning. This study aims to describe the comparison of the basic science process skills of prospective elementary school teachers in electric subjects. This research is descriptive. The sample of this study was 184 students consisting of 104 students in the 4th semester and 80 students in the 6th semester. The data collection technique was using a test that consists of 25 questions about basic science process skills. Data analysis using the Wright Person Map in Rasch Model. Based on the results, the researcher obtained information that most prospective elementary teachers' science process skills were classified as moderate. In addition, the results were obtained that the science process skills of 6th-semester students were better than the 4th semester. This research also found that the science process skill of female students was better than male students.
Highlights
A scientific process becomes the basis for the formation and development of science or what is commonly known as Natural Science
It is an essential note that these findings indicate that the science process skills of prospective elementary school teacher students are still dominant in the moderate category, so that efforts need to be made to improve and increase the learning process for future elementary school teaching students who are at lower levels. (Gultepe 2016) states that it is essential for a teacher to have and understand science process skills well to make it easier for students to investigate the surrounding environment in developing scientific concepts properly
The science process skills ability of prospective elementary school teacher students on electricity is classified as moderate science process skills, and 6th-semester students' science process skills are better than the 4th semester
Summary
A scientific process becomes the basis for the formation and development of science or what is commonly known as Natural Science. Students need to develop science within themselves as a form of providing meaningful experiences. This meaningful experience can be used to equip these students in the form of skills in an effort to develop themselves to the stage. Learning science starts from asking about specific events, phenomena, or symptoms until answers to those questions. A person's skills honed through science are the skills of doing the scientific activities themselves. These skills are called science process skills
