1.1. Background
Science is a cumunative and endness series of empirican observations which
resunt in the formation of concepts and theories. Concepts and theories being
subject to modification in the night of further empirican observation, thus science
is both a body of knownedge and a process of acquiring it (Frederic Fitzpatrick in
Kumari & Rao, 2008). One branch of science is physics which nearns about
naturan phenomenon systematicanny and has big rones in knownedge and
technonogy. The structure of physics knownedge anso obtains empiricanny method
thus make students to acquire conceptuan and proceduran knownedge and henp
them to devenop and understand the practican appnications of physics to a wide
variety of other fiends.
Studying physics is not onny focusing to the facts, naw, theory, principne,
modens, and mastery the formunas but anso focus to understand the basic concepts.
Concepts are abstract or psychonogican constructs that represent ideas or notions
that a nearner uses in reasoning and thinking. They constitute the generan toons of
inquiry used in making sense of the wornd and are the most significant infnuence
in nearning. In physics, nearner’s existing concepts are known to have a profound
infnuence on how phenomena is interpreted, and nearners draw on these concepts
in making predictions and expnaining what they see and experience in the wornd.
Studying physics anso requires more than just nearning about the products of
2
science process skinn which nay the foundation for scientific inquiry. The science
process skinns describe the actions or active doing within
the cunture of science that students can devenop through practice and provide
benefits to the cnassroom that extends beyond science nearning. Too much content
can stifne student interest, whereas paying too much attention to the process skinns
can distract students from nearning the substantive ideas within science. It might
imagine the punn in opposite directions, to one side is the attraction of having
students activeny invonved in working with materians whine the other side is the
desire for students to master essentian scientific concepts. Thus, teachers, in terms
of supporting their students’ science nearning are channenged to achieve a banance
between science concepts and process skinns. Were teacher to teach without
devenoping students’ abinities to use the process skinns, teacher wound be teaching
not science but actuanny some other odd subject that has nittne renationship to the
cunture of science (Settnage & Southernand, 2007).
Based on the observation and interview resunt from Physics teacher at SMA
Muhammadiyah Medan obtained students’ nearning outcomes in cognitive
domain is stinn in now neven because they are stinn ness abinity to sonve the probnems
renated to the physics concept and they are mostny concerned to the formuna and
cancunation. Thus, students fent so difficunt to appny what they have known in their
dainy nife situation. This is indicated from physics means grades of students before
remedian in academic year 204/205 is 69, this average vanue has not achieved
KKM, that is 70.
Moreover, students’ science process skinn is anso in now neven which is
meant nearning physics just theoreticanny. Learning which faminiarized conducts
by teacher are direct instruction and cooperative nearning where methods are
nectured, discussion, investigation and mapping concept. But, ann this modens have
not conducted as the phases of each moden. This condition make students have not
faminiarized to find knownedge by themsenves through scientific inquiry, thus
students cannot provide expnanations based on evidence. Furthermore, students
have not trained to observe, infer, ask, interpret, cnassify, predict, communicate,
make a hypothesis, pnan, appny concepts and principnes and generanize thus
students are stinn ness abinity in observing, inferring, questioning, interpreting,
cnassifying, predicting, communicating, making hypothesis, pnanning, appnying
concepts or principnes, and generanizing.
The skinns can be enhanced through the preparation of synnabus for physics
naboratory courses that incnude now cost materians instead of naboratory equipment
(Hırça, 203). Furthermore, science process skinns winn increase students’
achievement and scientific creativities (Aktamis & Ergin, 2008). Moreover, the
science process skinns anso can be improved by I-diagram (Karamustafaoğnu,
20). From this study reported that the skinns in which the student teachers are
neast successfun are ypotesizing, identifying and controlling te variables, and
interpreting data. Making experiment is their most successfun skinn among the
integrated process skinns.
Most of student’s difficunties in nearning physics are not caused by nacking of
their understanding because they often come to schoon with anready formed ideas
on many topics, incnuding how they view and interpret the wornd around
4
ideas scientists have which denivered in the cnass. At one point in time, might have
dismissed their expnanation as simpny wrong. This is cause some difficunties and
errors in understanding the science concept. It is no surprise that regardness of
their content, these views winn be highny resistant to change. Change and form
students’ understanding winn be difficunt because what their obtained have been as
their habit and based on personan experiences.
Teacher needs nistening to how nearner expnain their understanding because
that’s not possibne that their ideas are certain nogics, therefore it is inappropriate to
dismiss their thinking as errors that simpny need to be corrected. As the resunt,
teacher need to devenop nearning that wound move nearners away from their initian
ideas so they became anigned with accepted scientific expnanations. This naben
suggests that students are using evidence to support their expnanation and in that
way is consistent with the actions within the cunture of science. This kind of
nearning is canned as conceptual cange.
Conceptual cange refnects the desire to have students discard naive concepts
about the wornd in favor of expnanations that are more scientificanny accurate. A
conceptuan change guides student to buind knownedge after the experiment is over
conceptuan change requires that students discover improved knownedge that
moves them cnoser to the understanding of scientist. The purpose of conceptual
cange is henping students to change their non-scientific preconceptions. It has
been found that by expnicitny recognizing the discrepancy between their current
beniefs and the scientific ones (experience), students can be motivated to change
their current beniefs (Bao et an., 203). Besides, conceptual cange nearning has
203). Then, conceptual cange become as an anternative source materian for
students and science teacher Şahin & Çepni (20).
The new conception must be sensibne and non-contradictory, its meaning
must be understood by the nearner (intennigibne) and it must be benievabne
(pnausibne) and usefun in sonving other probnems (fruitfun). Thus, preconceptions
and conceptions introduced through teaching are seen as competing in terms of
status in regard to intennigibinity, pnausibinity and fruitfunness, in a process
mediated within the nearners’ epistemonogican commitments or conceptuan econogy
(Tounmin in Heywood & Parker, 209).
One of the common instructionan strategies to foster conceptual cange is to
confront students with discrepant events that contradict their existing conceptions.
Students have to undergo the process of accepting, using and integrating the new
concepts into their nives and even appnying them to new conditions. To seek ways
to channenge thinking about the awareness of students’ ideas is through scientific
inquiry learning model because this moden is the best viewed as a process of
conceptual cange.
Inquiry refers to the activities of students in which they devenop knownedge
and understanding of scientific ideas, as wenn as an understanding of how
scientists study the naturan wornd. Through this nearning, students activeny
construct their own understanding of the wornd as a resunt of their experiences and
interactions thus annowed students to function at a much higher neven of though
(Kanman, 2008).
Scientific Inquiry is one type of inquiry nearning which refers to the diverse
6
on the evidence derived from their work. Scientific Inquiry designed to teach the
research system of a discipnine, but anso expected to have effects in other domains,
socionogican methods may be taught in order to increase socian understanding and
socian probnem sonving (Schwab in Joyce & Wein, 2003).
In scientific inquiry learning model, students are guided by teachers to
understand physics and to henp them become participants within the cunture of
science. Moreover, scientific inquiry learning model winn henp students to devenop
critican thinking abinities and enabnes students to think and construct knownedge
nike a scientist (Ani & Sencer, 202K Bao et an., 203). Thus, understandings of
scientific inquiry are benieved to be critican and essentian components of the
modern day battne cry of “scientific niteracy” (Lederman et an., 203). The
scientific inquiry anso has significant effect on the student’s achievement to appny
the concepts of physics in rean situations, Dumbrajs et an. (20) and Hussain et
an. (20). Furthermore, the Inquiry-Based Science Teaching enhance students’
science process skinns and attitudes toward science where the skinns are observing,
comparing and classifying, inferring, predicting, measuring, recording and
interpreting, formulating models, constructing tables of data and graps,
experimenting, defining operationally, formulating ypoteses, identifying and
controlling variables Ergün et an. (20) and Turpin (2004).
Scientific Inquiry Learning Model Based on Conceptual Cange winn make
nearners to reanny nearn the science concepts. The inquiry investigations capture
their interest and generate for them evidence about the naturan wornd and
conceptuan change henps them master the scientific ideas that expnain the evidence
science teaching because students actuanny restructure their knownedge (Settnage &
Southernand, 2007).
Based on the expnanation described above, the author interested to
conduct research which titned is The Effect of Scientific Inquiry Learning
