Abstract

Process skills are very important to be trained for students in the learning process because process skills have a role to help students in developing their minds, provide opportunities to make discoveries, improve memory, and help students learn scientific concepts. The purpose of this research was to determine the effect of inquiry-based learning on students' science process skills in the buffer solution material. The research method used a quasy experiment with a research design Posttest Only Control Group Design, which consists of an experimental class and a control class. The results showed that inquiry-based learning with V-diagrams had a higher score of student science process skills than those using inquiry-based learning alone. Generally the inquiry-based learning with V-diagrams is more effective than inquiry-based learning for students' science process skills.

Highlights

  • Education in schools has the aim of developing students' potential to be able to have knowledge, skills, and attitudes to learn as a form of stable behavior change in learning and to develop their potential to have religious-spiritual strength, selfcontrol, personality, intelligence, noble character, and the required skills themselves, society, nation and state.The quality of education in Indonesia is still low, so efforts are needed to build people's lives and change people's mindsets so that Indonesia can progress and develop in achieving educational goals

  • The vee diagram instrument is used to make a relationship between "thinking" and "doing" science process skills of students that occur while students are doing lab work in the laboratory

  • The results of the normality test for understanding concepts and process skills in both the experimental and control classes show a significance value greater than 0.05, so H0 is accepted. These results indicate that the scores of both the experimental and control classes are normally distributed

Summary

Introduction

Education in schools has the aim of developing students' potential to be able to have knowledge, skills, and attitudes to learn as a form of stable behavior change in learning and to develop their potential to have religious-spiritual strength, selfcontrol, personality, intelligence, noble character, and the required skills themselves, society, nation and state. The quality of education in Indonesia is still low, so efforts are needed to build people's lives and change people's mindsets so that Indonesia can progress and develop in achieving educational goals. The teacher must be able to present meaningful learning so that the expected educational goals can be achieved. One of the factors for the low quality of education in Indonesia is that the learning process in class is still focused on the teacher.
