Abstract

The purpose of the research is to compare the influence of scientific attitudes toward the science process skills in basic physics practicum of PEER model with the conventional model. PEER is an acronym for Planning, Experiment, Evaluate, and Reporting, which is the stage of the model's practicum. Scientific attitudes here are honesty, collaboration, discipline, responsibility, open-mindedness. Scientific process skills here are: classifying, making a question, identifying and controlling variables, measuring, and inferring. The type of research is experimental with the static-group comparison design. Research subjects are 120 students from Physics Department, Chemistry, and Biology of Universitas Negeri Surabaya. Data analysis uses t-test. The results showed that: 1) The score of scientific attitudes and science process skills of the PEER model differed significantly from the conventional model (tx and ty > t0, with t0 = 2.7764 and a = 0.05); 2) The average score of scientific attitude of PEER model (x1 ± σx1) is better than conventional model, the average value of science process skill with PEER model is better than conventional model. The results of this study conclude that the PEER model practicum can produce better scientific attitudes and science process skills than conventional models. © 2018, Int. J. of GEOMATE.
