ABSTRACT
Due to the existence of pressure in increasing the children’s score on standardized examination, such as National examination, has caused the teaching learning process to be overwhelmingly dominated by literacy instruction regardless on teaching the students the science instruction. In helping the teacher teaches the students how to do science as in terms of skils, a hierarchy is needed as the framework for teacher in emphasizing the inquiry skill mastery by the students. Levels of inquiry provides a hierarchy for teacher to teach for inquiry – a process how to assist the students to develop some inquiry skills. This research is aimed to see the effect of levels of
inquiry implementation on students’ achievement especially in scientific inquiry skills.
Descriptive-quantitative data analysis is used in explaining result of the research. As much as 29 students from X Junior High School was taken as subject of research. According to the result, it can be concluded that the levels of inquiry implementation did not give any significant
improvement on students inquiry skills’ achievement; as it is the opposite from the positive results of previous researches which emphasized on students’ cognitive domain. As much as 0,11
was recorded as the average normalized gain which was considered as low. Scientific inquiry skill six was considered as the skill which was mastered the most by the students after the learning process was conducted. The feasibility of lesson plan delivery was conducted as much as 72,72%, which by all means affected the effectivity of scientific inquiry skills’ mastery.

ABSTRAK
Adanya tekanan pada peningkatan nilai siswa dalam ujian terstandar, seperti Ujian Nasional (UN), telah menyebabkan proses pembelajaran didominasi oleh pembelajaran secara literasi terlepas dari pembelajaran sains secara keseluruhan. Untuk membantu guru mengajarkan murid cara mempelajari ilmu pengetahuan dalam hal keterampilan, sebuah hirarki dibutuhkan sebagai acuan bagi guru untuk memperdalam penguasaan keterampilan inkuiri siswa. Levels of inquiry
menyediakan sebuah hirarki bagi guru untuk mengajarkan cara berinkuiri – sebuah proses bagaimana mendampingi siswa untuk mengembangkan beberapa kemampuan berinkuiri. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat melihat efek dari implementasi Levels of inquiry pada pencapaian siswa terutama pada scientific inquiry skills (kemampuan inkuiri saintifik). Metode analisis data deskriptif-kuantitatif digunakan dalam menjelaskan hasil dari penelitian. Sebanyak 29 siswa dari SMP X diambil sebagai subjek penelitian. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa Levels of inquiry tidak memberikan hasil yang signifikan terhadap pencapaian kemampuan berinkuri siswa; berlawanan dengan hasil positif dari penelitian sebelumnya yang berpusat pada pencapaian siswa dari segi aspek kognitif. Nilai rata-rata gain ternormalisasi yang tercatat sebesar 0,11 yang mana dikategorikan sebagai pencapaian yang rendah. Scientific inquiry skill ke-enam adalah keterampilan yang paling dikuasai siswa setelah proses pembelajaran berlangsung. Keterlaksanaan dari rancangan pembelajaran tercatat sebesar 72,72%, yang mana mempengaruhi hasil dan efektifitas dari penguasaan scientific inquiry skills.
