Abstract

The purpose of this research is to know the science process skills of biology education students through learning based on a scientific approach. The study involved 42 students from Biology Education of Sriwijaya University that enrolled in a general biology course. The research used a pre-experimental method with one group pretest-postest design. Collecting data using a written test of 60 questions that consisting of 7 aspects of science process skill (observing, communicating, classifying, predicting, identifying variables, formulating a hypothesis, and interpreting data). The data were analyzed with the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test followed by the Mann-Whitney test. The results showed that there was a significant improvement in the science process skills, with a significance value of p = 0,000 at α = 0,025. Improved science process skills in biology education students are included in the medium category, with an average of normalized gain (n-gain) = 0.41. The highest increase in science process skills on the communicating aspects (n-gain = 0.65) and the lowest on predicting aspects (n-gain = 0.17). Based on the results of this study indicates that learning based on scientific approaches can improve the science process skills of Sriwijaya University Biology Education students in a general biology course.
