Abstract
This study is driven by Indonesia’s low scientific literacy, as indicated by its PISA score. The deficiency in chemical literacy is attributed to the ineffective and limited application of learning models. Its objective is to assess the impact of the Process-Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL) model on students’ chemical literacy regarding salt hydrolysis. Conducted in May 2023 at a public high school in Jakarta, the study employed a quasi-experimental design, randomly assigning two sample classes, XI MIPA-1 as the experimental group and XI MIPA-3 as the control group, using the flipping coin method. Each class comprised 36 students. The chemical literacy assessment utilized multiple-choice tests, and data analysis was performed via t-test. The findings demonstrated that POGIL positively influenced students’ chemical literacy in salt hydrolysis among grade 11 students, suggesting its effectiveness in enhancing chemical literacy. Consequently, it is suggested that educators adopt the POGIL model to improve students’ chemistry literacy across various chemistry topics based on these results.
