Pengaruh Mini Riset terhadap Keterampilan Proses Sains Terintegrasi Siswa pada Materi Pencemaran Lingkungan
Abstract: Free inquiry is one
level in inquiry learning that encourages students to identify a problem, find
solutions to these problems through an experiment that was designed
independently. One of the learning activities that can be applied is mini
research. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of
environmental pollution based mini research on integrated science process
skills of students. This study uses a control class (laboratory activities) and
the experimental class (mini research), both administered through learning
activities about environmental pollution. This study is a quasi-experiment
which sampling was taken by purposive sampling and using the matching-only
design pretest-posttest control group design, in which the control and
experimental classes are given a pretest and posttest. The subjects were high
school students who took the specialization class, X Mathematics Natural
Sciences (MIPA) in a country SMAN in Majalengka. Students from two classes,
respectively accounted for 36 and 37 people. The data were taken by using
integrated science process skills test, performance assessment of mini
research, and students’ questionnaire responses concerning the application of
learning that includes an ntegrated science process skill. The results showed
that there were significant differences in integrated science process skills of
students between the experimental class and control class. Assessment of
performance mini research also showed good results, accompanied by a good
response also to a mini lab activities and research in which students learn to
apply the scientific approach.
