Abstract
The ability of junior high school teachers to design scientific literacy tests is necessary. This research is focused on finding out how teachers can elaborate their ability to design scientific literacy tests. There are eight indicators related to scientific literacy in the developed instrument. We analyzed 41 packages in junior high schools from 9 regencies/cities in Indonesia. Based on the analysis, it was found that there were indicators that had not been achieved because curriculum materials were not available in that semester. This study shows that Indonesian science teachers can develop tests containing scientific literacy with an average of 76.4% of all scientific literacy indicators.
Highlights
The development of science in the 21st century is moving like an exponential trajectory
This study began with the desire to elaborate on the ability to design scientific literacy tests for science teachers at junior high schools in East Kalimantan, Indonesia
The samples used were a number of scientific literacy questions from science teachers in each district of East Kalimantan who made scientific literacy tests
Summary
The development of science in the 21st century is moving like an exponential trajectory. The application of scientific literacy in the tropics is knowledge about natural resources that need to be informed to students. A number of junior high school science teachers in East Kalimantan were met to determine their ability to design scientific literacy tests.
