Abstract

An experimental study was conducted to see the extent of learners' science writing skill improvement through means of Self Regulated Learning (SRL) oriented learning. This research shows that the increase in science writing skill with N-gain value on the first experiment was 0.69 and on the second experiments, the value increased to 0.84. Both increases in science writing skill are categorized as medium and high categories. SRL oriented learning, simultaneously educate the students in science processing skill as well as communication skill, in this sense, sciencewriting skills. Science writing skill cannot be naturally developed; rather, it needs step by step training especially in learning. © Serials Publications.
