Abstract

The purpose of this research is to describe the effectiveness of guided inquiry-based learning material to improve students' science literacy skills on solubility and solubility product concepts. This study used Research and Development (R&D) design and was implemented to the 11th graders of Muhammadiyah 4 Senior High School Surabaya in 2016/2017 academic year with one group pre-test and post-test design. The data collection techniques used were validation, observation, test, and questionnaire. The results of this research showed that the students' science literacy skills are different after implementation of guided inquiry-based learning material. The guided inquiry-based learning material is effective to improve students' science literacy skills on solubility and solubility product concepts by getting N-gain score with medium and high category. This improvement caused by the developed learning material such as lesson plan, student worksheet, and science literacy skill tests were categorized as valid and very valid. In addition, each of the learning phases in lesson plan has been well implemented. Therefore, it can be concluded that the guided inquiry-based learning material are effective to improve students' science literacy skills on solubility and solubility product concepts in senior high school. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
