UPAYA MENINGKATKAN KETERAMPILAN PROSES SAINS SISWA DENGAN MODEL PROBLEM BASED LEARNING PADA PEMBELAJARAN IPA SD

Abstract

This research aims to improve the science process skills of students Natural
Sciences (IPA) using the model of Problem Based Learning. Science process skills is
scientist behavioral that can be learned and developed by students through the learning
process in the classroom. Science process skills provide more opportunities for students
to play an active role in learning. This research uses a Classroom Action Research
(PTK), which is composed of two cycles. Each cycle includes three stages: planning,
action accompanied by observation, and reflection. The collection of data through
observation, interviews, documentation and testing. The results showed that the use of
models Problem Based Learning in science teaching can improve science process skills
of students in the learning process. It is seen from the value of science process skills of
students has increased from cycle I to cycle II which show the percentage of students'
science process skills by 64.17% in the first cycle to 78.96% in the second cycle.
Keywords: a model problem based learning, science process skills, science learning
