The Effect of Scientific Inquiry Learning Model and Scientific Argumentation on the Students' Science Process Skill

Abstract

This study aim edtoanalyze if the result of students science process skill with using scientific inquiry learning model better than conventional learning, to analyze if the results of science process skill of students who have high average of scientific argumentation better than students who have low average of scientific argumentation, to find out interaction between scientific inquiry learning model and scientific argumentation of physics students science process skill. This research is a quasi-experimental design with two group pretest-posttest design. The result of the data analyzed by using two ways Analysis of Variance. The results showed that the science process skill of students using scientific inquiry learning model better than conventional learning, The science process skill of students who have high average of scientific argumentation better than students who have the low average of scientific argumentation, and there was interaction between the scientific inquiry learning model and conventional learning with scientific argumentation to improve physics students science process skill.
