Description
Summary:Argumentation skill is the ability to claim and premise in making a decision based on available information and facts. A measurement method is used to assess argumentation skills based on Toulmin's argumentation pattern - consisting of six aspects, namely statements, data, reasons, support, qualifications, and rebuttals. The purpose of this study is to reveal the profile of students' argumentation skills in learning biology. This research uses a descriptive quantitative method. A total of 63 students of Grade X Science Core at Public High School 3 Pontianak were selected as samples in this study. The results showed that the students' argumentation skills were in the low category. It can be seen from the average of each aspect of argumentation, i.e., the aspect of the claim is in the sufficient category (62.5%), the ground aspect is in the sufficient category (50.3%), the warrant is in a good category (72.6%), the backing aspect is in the moderate category (54.3%), and the rebuttal aspect is in a low category (23.4%).
