Development of Science Learning with Project Based Learning on Science Process Skill : A Needs Analysis Study

Abstract

The purpose of this study are: (1) To determine the characteristics of science learning that have been carried out by junior high school teachers in East Lombok, (2). Developing a science learning design model for junior high school by learning Science Process Skill-based Projects, (3) Science teaching materials are arranged in the form of student books. This type of research is the research development of the Dick and Carey model, which is planned for 2 (two) years. The research design in the first year was a needs analysis conducted through a survey to obtain data on the needs for the characteristics and models of junior high school science teaching that have been carried out by teachers in East Lombok as well as compiling a draft of a student’s learning design and book draft (LKS) with learning based on a Science Process Skill Project. The instrument used was a questionnaire with research subjects of science teachers and junior high school students in East Lombok. The data collected was then analyzed using descriptive analysis techniques. Based on the results of a survey of student characteristics, it can be concluded that (1) 75% of students said that science learning in the classroom was less enjoyable and 13.9% pleasant and 11.1% even tended to be boring, (2) 77.8%. Students have difficulty in solving problems that are abstract, (3) 95% of students are more interested in learning science associated with everyday problems, (4) 75% of students have not been able to think about science problems..
