The effect of laboratory processing capability and science literacy of readiness become a professional pre-service physics teachers

Abstract

This research aims to describe the readiness of preservice physics teacher are graduate from PTKIN, especially in education. The aspect that observed in this research are capability of laboratory processing and science literacy that affected to pre-service physics teacher quality. The research was conducted by collecting data of management laboratory capabilities and science literacy of students in physics education department of UIN Sunan Gunung Djati as graduate by PTKIN and to be a physics teacher. The subjects in the research are students of physics education department at UIN Sunan Gunung Djati Bandung in three years. The data in this research were collected by spreading the instruments of management laboratory capability as form of a multiple choice test and essay for determine the ability of students in science literacy. The second instrument was a questionnaire of student’s attitude as a prospective physics teacher about the implementation of learning theoretical. The collected data were analysed using multiple regression analysis to determine the effect of management laboratory capability (X1) to readiness professional physics teacher (Y) and the same analysis was also conducted to clarify the effect of the science literacy (X2) to readiness professional physic teachers (Y). The result of this research are expected to be reference to make improvements in the course have a planning for prepare the professional of pre-service physic teachers. Generally, the research gives a conclusion that laboratory management capability and science literacy do not give effect to readiness become a professional pre-service physics teacher.
