Abstract

Previous research has shown that curiosity has an important role in education, especially in learning biological sciences. This review of literature study aims to examine the important role of curiosity in learning biological sciences. The focus in the study is 1) the nature of curiosity, 2) curiosity research in learning, and 3) curiosity in learning. The results of the study that curiosity has a positive contribution to learning include; 1) increase motivation and interest in learning, 2) develop critical thinking skills, creative thinking skills, and improve academic achievement. Curiosity can be developed and enhanced in learning by using problem Based Learning Models(PBL) , Project-Based Learning (PjBL), Inquiry, and Discovery Learning

  • Curiosity is the starting point of knowledge possessed by everyone (Hayumuti et al, 2017). (Binson, 2009; Nugroho, 2019; Suhadak, 2014) A person's curiosity is a manifestation of an individual's enthusiastic attitude by observing, investigating, listening, seeking, and digging information to obtain the truth of phenomena or objects in their environment

(Fadilah & Kartini, 2019) In the 21st century, character education is needed to form students who are intelligent in knowledge and intelligent in character. Fostering curiosity is the goal of education because it allows them to facilitate their involvement in authentic and meaningful learning, both inside and outside the classroom. Curiosity is defined as the desire to know, see, experience, and motivate exploratory behavior directed at the acquisition of new knowledge and sensory experiences.
