Improving Science Process Skills of Students: A Review of Literature

This paper aims to review and assess the strategies available in literature to improve the practices of science process skills (SPS) among students. SPS encompasses the mental and physical activities of students in collecting and organizing information and then using the information to make predictions, explain phenomena, solve problems, understand the scientific endeavor, and learn science. Students were required to develop and use these skills in the teaching and learning process. The commonly identified and described SPS are observation, measuring, classifying, communicating, predicting, inferring, using numbers, using space/time relationship, questioning, identifying and controlling variables, hypothesizing, defining operationally, designing experiments, interpreting data, and modeling. These skills are important for students as tools for exploration and investigation of the natural world, improving academic achievements and attitudes towards science, learning science with understanding, and promoting development of mental and intellectual processes. From the literature reviewed the following strategies were recognized for the development of SPS in students: integration of SPS in curriculum materials, classroom lessons and assessments, use of instructional strategies or methods, and providing explicit instruction or training on SPS. The instructional strategies identified for enhancing SPS were student-centered teaching methods and multiple representation approaches. Student-centered teaching approaches promote the development of SPS in students by engaging them in mind-on and hand-on activities. Multiple representation approaches involve presenting lessons by using a combination of various teaching methods or various media in the same lesson and are found important for SPS development in students. Therefore, it was recommended to use these strategies for developing SPS to attain science education goals.

Guided Inquiry-Based Basic Chemistry Practicum Guidelines and Its Impact on Students' Science Process Skills and Critical Thinking Skills

Science process and critical thinking skills must be possessed by students as prospective professional teachers. Quality practicum activities with quality teaching materials can improve science process skills and low critical thinking. The practicum guide only asks students to carry out practical activities according to existing procedures, so students cannot build their skills. This study aims to develop an inquiry-based practicum guide that meets the valid, practical, and effective criteria for science process skills and critical thinking. This research is development research based on the Hannafin & Peck model with three stages, namely needs assessment, design, development, and implementation, piloted on a small scale, namely 20 students in basic chemistry courses. The results showed (1) Valid with a value of 3.5. Practical with a score of 3.81 on lecturer activities and 3.3 on student activities. Effective with 90.5% getting a positive response. (2) Science process skills are very good, with a score of 88.54%, and critical thinking skills with the results of hypothesis testing Sig (0.001) > 0.05, while the gain score test is 0.45 in the medium category. This guided inquiry-based practicum guide can be used because students design, formulate hypotheses, and conclude independently to improve their science process and critical thinking skills.
