Description
Summary:The 21st century demands education graduates have various skills. One of the skills needed is literacy skills. This literacy ability can be instilled in the learning process. However, the integration of literacy and the implementation of integrated science learning is still low. The solution that can be done is to develop science learning material by integrating new literacy. This study aims to determine the effect of using natural science learning material with the theme of motion in daily life integrated with new literacy on increasing the knowledge and skills of new literacy students of class VIII. This study used a before and after design with one sample group. The research subjects were 32 grade VIII students of SMP Negeri 1 Solok. The instrument for data collection consisted of two instruments. First, the knowledge aspect assessment instrument in the form of a written test consisting of 10 questions in the form of essay questions. Second, the skills aspect assessment instrument in the form of a performance appraisal sheet to assess students’ new literacy skills. The data analysis technique used descriptive analysis, normality test, homogeneity test, and correlated comparison test if the data were normally distributed and had the same variance. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test analysis is used if the data are not normally distributed and are not of the same variance. Therefore, an important result of this study is the use of science learning material on motion in daily life theme has a significant effect on increasing the knowledge and new literacy skills of grade VIII junior high school students at a 95% confidence level.
