Seen as a renewal of science education at the level of primary

and secondary education around the world

Called renewal because it

requires ....

influence

needs to
be
balanced

Therefore, science education should be able to provide

supplies to the students, in order to live in a decent
environment in accordance with the development of
science and technology

UNESCO "1983" suggests science

education in schools should act as:
Help learners develop intellectual skills by way of
logical thinking and problem solving way.
Help learners know and understand about science
and technology in improving quality of life.
Help learners know and understand about science
and technology in improving quality of life.
Help learners acquire supplies, such as the
principles of science and technology are expected
to be encountered in later life.
Help learners to master other subjects, especially
English and mathematics.

National teacher association (NSTA) in the United States

have identified the things that include STM, ie ..
1. Learners identify the problem to the environment.

2. The use of local natural resources.

3. The active participation of learners in look for information
that can be applied to resolve the problems faced in the real
environment.
4. Time continuous learning, both classroom, outside the
classroom or in school, or outside of school hours.

Next..

5. Learning emphasis on the impact of science and technology to each

learner.
6. The subject matter is not just a concept that must be mastered by
students but more than that.
7. Completion issues emphasized on the use of process skills by
learners.
8. Emphasized career awareness, especially related to science and
technology.

9. Opportunity for learners to act as citizens

when it can address the issues identified.
10.Identify ways that allow science and
technology to solve the problem the next
day.
11.Some autonomy in the learning process.

The difference between the students who

followed the STM with a disobedient NSTA
APPLICATION OF LEARNING MATERIALS

Learners see the material benefits they

learned

Learners can connect their learning to

everyday life

Learners can not connect science learned

with today's technology

Learners pay attention to the development

of technology and through the fact that
they see the benefits and relevance.

CREATIVITY

Learners lack the ability to ask

Learners more ask and often provide

unexpected questions that teachers

Learners are not effective in identifying the

cause and effect of a particular situation

Learners are skilled in identifying possible

causes and effects of specific observations
and activities

KNOWLEDGE
Knowledge necessary to carry out tests

Learners see scientific knowledge as

something in need

Knowledge is only seen as a result of

Knowledge is seen as a preparation to

learning

solve problems

Retention is rapid

Learners longer then forget the

information that was obtained and can
carry out a transfer of learning well

PROCES
Learners see science process skills

Learners see the process of science as a

possessed as scientists

skill that they can use

Learners see the process as something to Learners see the process of science as a
practice as a requirement

skill that needs to be developed for their

own need

Attitude
Learners only have a few ideas

Learners continually has ideas

Ask learners to science decreases

Interest of learners in science

with increasing

increased from level ketigkat

Science lowered curiosity

Learners are more curious about

the physical world

Teachers are considered as a

Teachers as facilitators

conduit of information
Learners see science to be studied

Learners see science as a tool to

solve problems
