Description
Summary:The development of scientific literacy skills were the main purpose of science education. The curriculum 2013 has suggested scientific approach as the alternative instruction to foster students' scientific literacy. This goal of this study was to examine the effect of scientific approach on scientific literacy of students. The data was collected through pre-test and post-test arranged based on three indicators of scientific literacy, namely scientific reasoning, scientific investigation, and problem solving. The tests were administered to 34 students and the results were analyzed using the normalized gain score (N-gain). The findings informed that scientific approach has a medium effect on scientific literacy. In addition, the dominant indicator of scientific literacy was scientific reasoning. This valuable information could be used by the teacher as a reference to develop the students' scientific literacy through scientific approach.
