Abstract


Abstract The Use of Molecular Simulation-Assisted Discovery Learning in Improving Science Process Skills. Objectives This study aimed to describe the effectiveness of molecular simulation-assisted discovery learning (MSADL) in improving science process skills (SPS) on chemical equilibrium. Methods This research used the matching-only pretest-postest control group design. The population in this study was all students of XI MIA at MAN 1 Bandar Lampung in 2019/2020. The sample was XI MIA 5 and XI MIA 6 obtained by purposive sampling. The data analysis technique used the t-test. Findings: The results showed the average n-gain of students SPS using MSADL was 0.76 in high criteria, while the average n-gain of students SPS using conventional learning was 0.54 in moderate criteria. The t-test results showed that the average n-gain of students’ SPS using MSADL was higher than students SPS using conventional learning. Conclusion It can be concluded that MSADL is effective in improving students SPS on chemical equilibrium.

Keywords Discovery learning, science process skills, chemical equilibrium.


Abstrak Penggunaan Model Pembelajaran Discovery Berbantuan Simulasi Molekul dalam Meningkatkan Keterampilan Proses Sains. Tujuan Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan efektivitas pembelajaran discovery berbantuan simulasi molekul (MSADL) dalam meningkatkan keterampilan proses sains (SPS) pada materi kesetimbangan kimia. Metode Penelitian ini menggunakan the matching-only pretest-postest control grup design. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah siswa XI MIA MAN 1 Bandar Lampung Tahun 2019/2020 dengan XI MIA 5 dan XI MIA 6 sebagai sampel yang didapatkan dengan teknik purposif. Teknik analisis data yang digunakan adalah uji-t. Temuan Hasil penelitian menunjukkan rata-rata n-gain SPS di kelas MSADL sebesar 0,76 berkriteria tinggi, sedangkan rata-rata n-gain SPS di kelas konvensional sebesar 0,54 berkriteria sedang. Hasil uji-t rata-rata n-gain SPS di kelas MSADL lebih tinggi dibandingkan kelas konvensional. Kesimpulan MSADL efektif dalam meningkatkan SPS siswa pada materi kesetimbangan kimia.

Kata kunci Pembelajaran berbasis penemuan, keterampilan proses sains, kesetimbangan kimia.
