PENGARUH PENDEKATAN SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, AND SOCIETY TERHADAP KETERAMPILAN PROSES SAINS SISWA MATERI SUMBER DAYA ALAM KELAS IV SDN 173110 HUTARAJA
Abstract
This study aimed to determine the effect of the Science, Technology, and Society approach on fourth-grade students’ science process skills in the topic of Natural Resources at SDN 173110 Hutaraja. The study employed a quantitative approach with a pre-experimental method using a one-group pretest-posttest design. The sample consisted of 26 students selected through saturated sampling. The research instrument was an essay-based science process skills test that had been validated and tested for reliability. Data were analyzed using normality testing and the Paired Sample t-Test. The results showed that the average science process skills score increased from 48.38 in the pretest to 81.42 in the posttest. The Paired Sample t-Test yielded a significance value (Sig. 2-tailed) of 0.000 < 0.05, indicating that the Science, Technology, and Society approach had a significant effect on students’ science process skills. Therefore, the Science, Technology, and Society approach has a positive and significant effect on students’ science process skills.
