High Order Thinking

Science process skills (SPS) are the tools that are needed in chemistry learning in 21 st century. SPS are thinking skills that used to build knowledge in problems solving. SPS aim to measure thinking skills and create active learning. SPS based learning can also enhance the knowledge of students towards science. In the other words, SPS have positive relationship with the cognitive domain, including the analytical thinking skills. Analytical thinking is one of a high order thinking skills that are used to elaborate, attribute, and analyze information to understand the knowledge using logical thinking. Analytical thinking is the thinking that is based on facts which will help in solving the problems and finding the solutions that supports critical and creative thinking. To measure both the competencies needed an integrated assessment instrument which able to measure the students’ achievement effectively and efficiently. Integrated assessment is an interdisciplinary process in combining, interpreting, communicating knowledge and abilities of students from a variety of sources. In summary, if the integrated assessment is done effectively by utilizing the data collection, analysis, and management of the various actions that are integrated into the teaching process, it will improve the students’ analytical thinking and science process skills.

The main purpose of this study is to find out the influence of practicum-based outdoor inquiry model on science process skills. Quasi-experiment design was employed as the research method by Matching Only Post-test Control Group. The research sample was taken using a cluster sampling technique. The samples consisted of experimental class (XI MIA 1) in a total of 25 students treated with practicum-based outdoor inquiry model. The control class (XI MIA 3) consisted of 29 students treated with direct instruction model. In collecting the data, essay test was used in the form of worksheets containing the aspect of science process skills of formulating hypotheses, designing experiment, interpreting data into tables, and drawing a conclusion (inferring). The study results demonstrate that practicum-based outdoor inquiry model was effective in improving the science process skills. It was shown in p-value (significant) of 0.00. The implication of this study is the need to design a practicum-based outdoor inquiry model by noticing what skills are going to improve by means of more varied outdoor activities

Current Assessment

Students should be prepared to cope with this world with higher level skills involving critical thinking and science process skills, so that they can solve problem in education learning and other fields. Besides, the main reason is those skills should not be separated. Critical thinking skills can be developed by enriching students’ process skills. Getting students to think critically and act in accordance with science process skills that students have will improve their cognitive and skill aspects. Unfortunately, those students’ ability is not balanced with the current assessment. The prior assessment should be changed to integrated assessment that provides a framework for assessing both students’ critical thinking and science process skills. It enables teachers to determine the extent to which students are reasoning critically by integrating science process skills as primary tool for learning. The purpose of this study is to find why integrated assessment is needed to measure critical thinking and science process skills in integrated manner.

Science Process Skills (SPSs) are fundamental skills to mastering science. To nurture students' SPS, inquiry based learning and student-center activities may work effectively. This study aims at analyzing: How Inquiry-based Learning and Student Team Achievement Division (INSTAD) affects science process skills compared with inquiry-based learning, Student Teams Achievement Divisions (STAD), and conventional learning method. The participants were 136 grade 7 students from 27 public middle schools in Surakarta, Indonesia. They were divided into 68 students with higher academic (HA) achievement and 68 students with lower academic (LA) achievement. A nonequivalent control group design with pretest and posttest were applied to get data on SPSs using a sort of essay test. The result indicates that: (1) While the outcomes of INSTAD and inquiry-based learning are comparable, they are significantly different compared with the outcomes of STAD and conventional learning. (2) Students in HA group have higher SPS than students in LA groups. (3) INSTAD, on an equal level with inquiry-based learning, significantly increases the students’ SPSs. Compared with other three methods, INSTAD was confirmed the most effective in closing the science process skills gaps between students in HA group and LA group. Keywords: inquiry-based learning, INSTAD, STAD, science process skills.
