A. Background: Creative, Innovative, Collaborative, Communication Skill and Critical Thinking

This document introduces the background, problem, objectives, and organization of a research study on students' creativity and participation using a 5E learning model in a human respiratory system lesson. The study aims to: 1) analyze the implementation of the 5E model, 2) profile students' participation, and 3) profile students' creativity. It will limit evaluation to two steps and examine specific participation and creativity indicators. The research is expected to benefit teachers, students, schools, and other researchers by providing experience with an active learning approach and insights into developing students' understanding of respiratory systems.

CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

A. Background

Education is a fundamental human right and essential for developing


students’ experiences. Education is a powerful tool by which economically
and socially marginalized adults and children can lift themselves out of
poverty and participate fully as citizens. The purpose of National Education
stated in MPRS No. XXVI / MPRS / 1966 on religion, education and culture,
is to educate the nation and develop Indonesian’s students who is faithful and
devoted to God almighty and good in characters, having knowledge and
skills, physical and spiritual health, steady and independent personality that
has a sense of civic responsibility and nationality.
Government expects the students to gain more skill related with 21st
century skills; Creative, Innovative, collaborative, communication skill and
critical thinking.

According to Hammond (1989), problem solving can be as a solution


for enhancing students’ creativity product and it is the ability of students to
make an innovative product based on their imaginative, condition, and
supported by environment. In education, the learning environment can be
created in the classroom if the students participate well with the teaching
process. Participation is the first step of the students to gain concept in
teaching learning process, so they can make a good product of creativity.
Participation based on Peterson (2001) also examined students’
documentation of their own participation, citing portfolios of work produced
in the course as evidence of students’ engagement.
The teacher all tend to recognize class participation and many use it in
calculating students’ grades, what may or may not be counted as participation
varies slightly with individual instructors and researchers. According to

Dancer & Kamvounias in Rocca (2010) Participation can be seen as an active


engagement process that can be sorted into five categories: preparation,
contribution to discussion, group skills, communication skills, and
attendance.
According to Zakaria (2014) results of PISA in 2012, Indonesia got
rank 64 out of 65 countries that joined in PISA, this result show that thinking
ability of the students is low and it is related with several aspect including
creativity. Hence, in Indonesia creativity of students still less. Munandar
(2009) argues that students’ creativity will related with confidence of the
sudents, there are still many of students did not confidence to solve the
problem. In addition, unconfident and nervous can be a crucial problem for
the students to participate well in the classroom in order to understand the
concept and work in a group to make a creative product.
The way of teacher to teach can be a solution to set both situation and
condition in the classroom, so it can decrease the probability of unconfidence
of the students. One of the way of the teacher to teach is about the strategy in
learning that used in the classroom. Recent research shows that the learning
cycle model is a widely recognized for teaching inquiry-based science. The
learning model used in this research followed (Bybee, 2006) five steps of
Engagement, Exploration, Explanation, Elaboration and Evaluation. 5E
learning model has been applied in several counties and almost in all
instruments of education such as: curriculum, teacher program, lesson plan,
university syllabi was implemented in several countries.
Based on first observation that researcher conducted, the students in
junior high school are still confuse about respiratory system, they can not
differentiate well the organ and also functions of in human respiratory
system. Meanwhile, human respiratory system also exist in curriculum both
2013 and KTSP.
Based on the background that have been stated before then researcher
would like to do and entitled the research on “The profile of students’
3

creativity product and students’ participation by using 5E learning model in


learning human respiratory system”.

B. Research Problem
According to the background which has already stated above, the
research problem is “How is the profile of students’ creativity and students’
participation by using 5E learning model in learning human respiratory
system?”

C. Research Question
Based on the research problem above, the research questions that
developed and explore in this research as follow:

1. How is 5E learning model implemented as an instruction for teaching the


concept of human respiratory system?
2. How is the students’ participation by using 5E learning model in the
concept of human respiratory system?
3. How is the students’ creativity by using 5E learning model in the concept
of human respiratory system?

D. Limitation of Problem
Based on the research questions above, researcher only limited the
research in this certain area:
1. 5E learning model consist of engagement, exploration, explanation,
elaboration and evaluation. Limitation is in evaluation, in the syntax
evaluation is exist in every step of 5E learning but in this reasearch the
evaluation exist only in the step of Exploration and Elaboration.
4

2. Students’ participation consists of 5 indicator preparation, attendance,


contribution to discussion, group skill and communication skill. In this
research it was concerning for both individual and group participation.
Both of them use 3 out of 5 indicator such as: contribution to discussion,
group skill and communication skill.
3. Students’ creativity that examined in this research only used some
subindicator of novelty, resolution and elaboration and synthesis.

E. Research Objective
This research is conducted to attain the objective as follow:
1. To figure out the profile of implementation of 5E learning model in
concept of human respiratory system
2. To analyze the profile of students’ participation in learning human
respiratory system.
3. To analyze the profile of students’ creativity in learning human respiratory
system.

F. Research Benefit
The research was expected to provide some benefits for teachers,
students, schools and researcher as follow:

1. Teacher
This research is beneficial for teacher by:
a) Giving experience and reference of how 5E learning model as
Instructional model works in learning,
b) Sharing an insight on handling class activity with a fun and enjoyment
learning approach.
5

c) Enrich teacher’s knowledge of instructional model to identify student’s


creativity and students’ participation about human respiratory system
and discover a better learning strategy.

2. Student
This research is beneficial for students by:

a) Giving new experiences of learning for students that differ from the
usual,

b) Preparing students for workplace skills and competencies (such


collaboration, team work, thinking logically, problem solving, decision
making, and time management), connecting between what students’
learnt, and what reality has, and

c) Providing opportunities for students to construct their own knowledge


and be an independent learner.

d) Allowing students to learn active and elaborate through human


respiratory system with phenomenon in daily life

e) Help the students to construct the concept of human respiratory system

3. School
This research is beneficial for school by:
a) Planning and preparing a the suitable learning strategy
b) Giving the result of the school based on the observation, so the school
can take the result for better learning in the future.

4. The Other Researchers


This research is beneficial for other researchers by:
a) Giving ideas as a point of reference and information in running further
research in science education.

b) Giving ideas as comparative material for next research which may


examine the same focus of problem.
6

c) Giving experience about how to implement 5E learning model for


determining students’ creativity and students’ participation in human
respiratory system.

research. As this chapter is reviewing 5E learning model, students’
creativity product and students’ participation, the presents of chapter II
is important to support data gained from research.
3. Chapter III: Methodology
The third chapter of methodology elaborated the method of
research including its design, subject of study, operational definition,
