The study aims to describe the development of an integrated STEM-based ecological module to improve creative thinking skills and learning outcomes in agroecosystems in differentiated learning. The research method is developing the Thiagarajan Four-D model with a one-group pretest-posttest design. Validation data were obtained from module validation, learning design, creative thinking skills rubric, and learning outcome test. Practicality is determined based on teacher and student responses, learning implementation, and readability tests. Effectiveness is determined based on the N-gain value of creative thinking skills and learning outcomes. The results of the study were very significant: the score of module validation was 90.21, the result of all practice indicators was 92.9, the N-gain effectiveness result of creative thinking skills was 0.86, and the N-gain result of learning outcomes was 0.92. In conclusion, the STEM-based ecological module in differentiated classes is valid, practical, and effective in improving creative thinking skills and learning outcomes.

This research aims to describe the validity of STEM-CT-based textbooks in improving multi-representation abilities in MTs students. This study used the Research and Development (R&D) method using the 4D model, which consists of four stages, i.e., Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate. However, this study only discussed preparing textbooks' Define, Design, and Develop stages. The research participants were teachers of the Science MGMP in Banyuwangi. The data collection techniques used in this research were interviews, questionnaires, and validation sheets. The analysis used in this research was descriptive and qualitative. The data processing results for STEM-CT-based textbooks to improve multi-representational abilities in MTs students obtained a validity value of 82.86 in the very valid or usable category. The validation results showed that the STEM-CT-based textbooks developed could be used for classroom learning to improve students' multi-representation abilities.

This study aims to analyze the validity of developing STEM-based educational games on force and movement material to improve junior high school students' creative thinking skills. This research method used research and development with the ADDIE model involving three stages: analysis, design, and development, but each stage was always evaluated. The research subjects consisted of 32 students of SMPN 3 Jember class VII and two teachers. The research object was an analysis of the needs of teachers and students in developing STEM-based educational games. The data collection instrument was a validation sheet with data analysis techniques in the research, including validity test analysis techniques and questionnaires to determine needs analysis. The research results obtained were an analysis of teacher needs of 100% and an analysis of student needs of 80% to develop the quality of STEM-based educational game learning media. Data analysis of the average assessment score of the three expert validators was 93%, showing that the category was very valid so that STEM-based educational game development products can be used, but there are slight revisions.

Abstrak. Pembelajaran yang bermakna adalah pembelajaran yang dapat dengan mudah dipahami oleh peserta didik dan informasi-informasi yang diperoleh bisa bertahan lama di dalam Long Term Memory (LTM) peserta didik. Pembelajaran di masa pandemic Covid-19 yang dilakukan secara daring tentu tidak berbeda dengan pembelajaran yang dilakukan secara luring. Suatu model/strategi pembelajaran tetap bisa digunakan dalam pembelajaran, termasuk juga model pembelajaran RQAAD (Reading, Questioning, Answering, Analyzing, Discussing). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh model pembelajaran RQAAD terhadap motivasi belajar dan keterampilan metakognisi mahasiswa. Penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian kuasi eksperimen yang membandingkan kelas yang diberi perlakuan menggunakan model pembelajaran RQAAD dan yang tidak menggunakannya. Motivasi belajar mahasiswa diukur dengan skala motivasi sedangkan keterampilan metakognitif diukur dengan rubrik keterampilan metakognitif. Penelitian dilakukan pada mahasiswa semester 3 tahun akademik 2020/2021 yang terdiri dari 62 mahasiswa. Pembelajaran RQAAD terbukti berpengaruh signifikan terhadap motivasi belajar dan keterampilan metakognitif mahasiswa yang menempuh matakuliah Strategi Belajar Mengajar Biologi. Rerata skor terkoreksi motivasi belajar kelas eksperimen 5,61 persen lebih tinggi dari kelas kontrol dan rerata terkoreksi keterampilan metakognitif kelas eksperimen 16,01 persen lebih tinggi dibanding kelas kontrol. Abstract. Learning during the COVID-19 pandemic that is done online is certainly no different from learning that is done offline. A learning model/strategy can still be used in learning, including the RQAAD (Reading, Questioning, Answering, Analyzing, Discussing) learning model. This study aims to determine the effect of the RQAAD learning model on student motivation and metacognitive skills. The research method used is quasi-experimental by comparing classes that are treated using the RQAAD learning model and those who do not. Student learning motivation is measured by the motivation scale while metacognitive skills are measured by the metacognitive skills rubric. The research was conducted on 3rd semester students of the 2020/2021 academic year consisting of 62 students. Learning RQAAD proved to have a significant effect on learning motivation and metacognitive skills of students taking Biology Teaching and Learning Strategies Course. The mean score of corrected learning motivation in the experimental class is 5.61 percent higher than the control class and the average corrected metacognitive skill in the experimental class is 16.01 percent higher than the control class.

Peserta didik secara input kurang dalam penguasaan konsep matematika, utamanya operasi hitung dasar pada bilangan bulat. Beberapa instrumen dan indikasi yang mendukung keadaan tersebut antara lain; 1)   rata-rata nilai pretes matematika peserta didik baru pada materi operasional dasar bilangan bulat disetiap awal tahun pelajaran, tidak lebih dari 5,00; 2) sejak tahun 2005 SMP Negeri 1 Tenggarang menjadi satu-satunya sekolah di kabupaten Bondowoso yang mendapatkan program Bridging Course dari pemerintah pusat didasarkan dari masih rendahnya tingkat kelulusan dan prestasi peserta didiknya. Sampel penelitian adalah kelas VII C SMP Negeri 1 Tenggarang Tahun Pelajaran 2011/2012. Masalahnya adalah apakah Teknik Taksiran Cermat (TTC) dapat meningkatkan prestasi belajar peserta didik dalam menentukan akar kuadrat bilangan bulat kuadrat sempurna dan akar pangkat tiga bilangan bulat kubik? Pelaksanaan pembelajaran pada kegiatan penelitian ini menggunakan dua skenario pembelajaran yaitu RPP model 1 pada kegiatan inti TM dan RPP model 2 pada kegiatan TM remidial. Hasil pembelajaran dari dua model skenario pembelajaran, berdasarkan pengamatan proses; 1) Eksplorasi; respon peserta didik untuk menjawab pertanyaan kuis dalam waktu tidak lebih dari 3 menit tiap soal ada peningkatan dari 13 % menjadi 54,5 %; Ketepatan menjawab dengan benar soal kuis tidak lebih dari 3 menit tiap soal ada peningkatan dari 60% menjadi 83,3 %; 2) Elaborasi; keaktifan peserta didik dalam kelompok dari kurang aktif menjadi aktif; Ketepatan kelompok dalam mempresentasikan dengan benar soal-soal LKS ada peningkatan dari 40 % menjadi 80 %. Evaluasi keberhasilan pembelajaran; jumlah ketuntasan ada peningkatan dari 21,7 % menjadi 100 % orang.
