KAJIAN TENTANG MODEL LEARNING CYCLE 5E TERHADAP PENINGKATAN PEMAHAMAN KONSEP DAN KETERAMPILAN PROSES SAINS SISWA

THE ANALYZES OF 5E-LEARNING CYCLE  METHOD IN INCREASING CONCEPT UNDERSTANDING AND  STUDENTS’ SKILL ON SCIENTIFIC PROCESS

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji model pembelajaran Learning Cycle 5E dalam meningkatkan keterampilan proses sains dan pemahaman konsep siswa. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah studi literatur. Objek yang digunakan adalah karya ilmiah berupa artikel jurnal dan hasil penelitian. Metode pengumpulan data menggunakan data sekunder melalui buku, jurnal maupun pustaka. Teknik yang digunakan adalah dengan menganalisis tiga literatur tentang Learning Cycle 5E untuk melihat implementasi model dari ketiga literatur tersebut. Berdasarkan hasil analisis setiap tahapan pada model pembelajaran Learning Cycle 5E dapat meningkatkan keterampilan proses sains dan pemahaman konsep. Perbedaan aspek yang ada di tahapan model Learning Cycle 5E pada keterampilan proses sains yaitu tahap engagement meliputi merumuskan masalah, membuat hipotesis, dan mengidentifikasi variabel. Pada tahap eksplorasi meliputi mengamati dan menganalisis data. Aspek pada pemahaman konsep yaitu tahap eksplorasi meliputi mencontohkan dan mengklasifikasikan. Pada tahap elaborasi meliputi menggeneralisasi dan membandingkan. Persamaan aspek yang ada di tahapan model Learning Cycle 5E pada keterampilan proses sains maupun pemahaman konsep yaitu tahap eksplorasi meliputi menginterpretasikan data dan menganalisis data. Pada tahap eksplanasi yaitu menjelaskan dan tahap evaluasi yaitu pemberian soal atau posttest. Hasil posttest mempengaruhi hasil ketuntasan siswa dimana melalui keterampilan proses sains rata-rata sebanyak 84,5% dan pemahaman konsep sebanyak 89% dinyatakan tuntas.

The purpose of this research is to analyze the study of 5E-learning cycle  in increasing students’ skill on scientific process and their concept understanding. This research uses literature study as the methodology. The main data is taken from scientific work such as journal article and result of the study. Besides, the data collection is taken from secondary data through a book journal or literature. This research analyzes three literature aspects about 5E-learning cycle method to know how the three literature aspect from the method applied. Based on the result, each steps of 5E-learning cycle method can increase students’ skill on their scientific process and their concept understanding. In other side, there are different aspects of 5E-learning cycle method step on scientific process that are engagement step which are formulate problems, forming hypothesis, and identifying variables. In exploration step there are observing and analyzed data. In addition, aspect on the concept understanding is exploration step which included into exemplifying and classifying. In elaboration step there are generalization and comparison. The similarities in 5E-learning cycle method in increasing skill on scientific process and concept understanding are in exploration step included into interpret data and analyzed data. the explanation step included into explanation and evaluation step included into giving questions or posttest. Posttest results affect the completeness of students where through science process skills an average of 84.5% and an understanding of concepts as much as 89% are declared complete.

Key Word : 5E-Learning Cycle, Students’ skill on Scientific Process, Concept Understanding
