Abstract


Abstract: The Role of Argument-Based Science Inquiry Learning Model to Improve Scientific Argumentation Ability. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the role of the argument-based science inquiry (ABSI) learning model in improving scientific argumentation skills. Methods: The quasi-experimental method used in this study was a one group pretest posttest design. The population in this study were high school students in the city of Bandung with a sample of two classes selected by cluster random sampling with a total of 100 students. Findings: The results of the study confirm that the ABSI learning model has a very significant effect on students scientific argumentation skills. The improvement can be seen in the depth, organization, and accuracy scientific argumentation. Conclusion: Students argumentation skills increase because they are trained to organize thoughts completely, scientifically, and systematically.

Keywords: argument-based science Inquiry learning model, scientific argumentation ability, critical thinking ability.

Abstrak: Peran Model Pembelajaran Science Inquiry Berbasis Argumen Untuk Meningkatkan Kemampuan Argumentasi Ilmiah. Tujuan: Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui peran model pembelajaran inkuiri sains berbasis argumen (ABSI) dalam meningkatkan keterampilan argumentasi ilmiah. Metode: Metode eksperimen semu yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah one group pretest posttest design. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah siswa SMA di kota Bandung dengan sampel dua kelas yang dipilih secara cluster random sampling dengan jumlah 100 siswa. Temuan: Hasil penelitian menegaskan bahwa model pembelajaran ABSI berpengaruh sangat signifikan terhadap keterampilan argumentasi ilmiah siswa. Peningkatan kemampuan argumentasi ilmiah siswa dapat dilihat pada kedalaman, pengorganisasian, dan ketepatan penggunaan komponen argumentasi ilmiah berupa klaim, data, justifikasi, dan pendukung. Kesimpulan: Kemampuan argumentasi siswa meningkat karena dilatih untuk mengorganisasikan pikiran secara utuh, ilmiah, dan sistematis.

Kata kunci: model pembelajaran inkuiri sains berbasis argumen, kemampuan argumentasi ilmiah, kemampuan berpikir kritis.
