metacognitive skills and learning outcomes of class . This research is an ex-post facto type of quantitative research with data collection carried out using self-efficacy, self-confidence and metacognitive skills questionnaires, as well as first semester Biology cognitive learning scores. The sample determination method used is the Area Proportional Random Sampling technique, so the research sample a total of 301 students and the research population was all class XI students of SMAN Polewali Mandar Regency for the 2023/2024 academic year. The data was analyzed descriptively and inferentially. The results of the research show that the self-efficacy, metacognitive skills and learning outcomes of students are in the medium category, and the self-confidence of students is in the high category, and there is a fairly strong relationship between self-efficacy and student learning outcomes, a very strong relationship between self-confidence and learning outcomes, a strong relationship between metacognitive skills and learning outcomes, and a very strong relationship between self-efficacy, self-confidence, and metacognitive skills and student learning outcomes. As for future researchers, it is hoped that they will use more variables and the results of this study are not in accordance with Bandura's theory that self-efficacy is always directly proportional to self-confidence, so it is necessary to study further the factors that influence students' self-confidence.

Optimizing High School Students' Biology Learning Outcomes: Picture and Picture Method on the Topic of Living Organism Classification

Students' learning outcomes are the main focus of the biology learning process. However, the basic phenomenon regarding students' biology learning outcomes shows that several issues still hinder the achievement of optimal learning outcomes. Therefore, this research aims to enhance students' cognitive learning outcomes by applying the picture and picture method to living organism classification. The research used Classroom Action Research with two cycles, each consisting of 2 meetings. The first cycle covered Monera, Protista, and Fungi, while the second covered Plantae and Mammalia. The number of students involved was 36 (M=18 and F=18). Students' cognitive learning outcomes were assessed using a 10-item multiple-choice cognitive test. The data on students' cognitive learning outcomes were analyzed using percentage techniques. Students were considered to have passed if they achieved a minimum score of 70. The analysis showed a significant improvement in students' cognitive learning outcomes, from 59.8 in cycle 1 to 77.1 in cycle 2. The number of students who achieved learning mastery increased by 43.5%, from 43.5% in cycle 1 to 87% in cycle 2. Therefore, applying the picture and picture method significantly improved students' cognitive learning outcomes regarding living organism classification. The implications of this research indicate that applying the Picture and Picture method effectively enhances students' cognitive learning outcomes on the topic of living organism classification, contributing positively to biology teaching practices in the classroom.

Does Laboratory Matters in Today’s High School Learning Environment?

The study focused into the relationship between laboratory importance perceptions and academic performance in biology among private and public school students. Study sample involving 165 students from 5 private and 6 public senior high school across South Sulawesi, Indonesia. All private school only possessed an integrated science lab, while all public school owned at least 3 science labs (biology, chemistry, and physics). Evaluation on laboratory importance and biology test results proceed to reveal the importance of having designed laboratory to enhance biology learning outcome in the middle of technological advancement, where learning resource vary across platforms. Surprisingly, private schools, despite having lower scores in laboratory importance perception, achieved superior results in biology tests compared to public schools. This suggests that while laboratory experiences are valuable, they may not be the sole determinants of academic success. Other factors like teaching methods, curriculum depth, and student motivation likely contribute significantly. These findings highlight the complexity of factors influencing student performance in biology and the need for a comprehensive approach to education. Understanding these dynamics can inform educational policies including funds allocation in a school and practices to optimize learning outcomes in biology subjects.
