Development of high School Biological Module based on Pictorial Riddle inquiry in Human Motion System

Abstract

Global changes in the development of knowledge and technology, especially those related to the education system in schools, require a change in teacher attitudes in implementing classroom learning. Therefore, teachers are required to continue to innovate in developing learning models that can improve students' attitudes, skills and knowledge. This learning model is expected not only to prepare students as a generation who only follows the times, but also to prepare them as a generation that is critical, creative, and innovative in developing their potential in the future. However, in general, the level of creativity and critical thinking of students is still low. Some of the causes for dull student creativity and critical thinking are the low mastery of basic concepts. Thus, in this study, learning improvements will be carried out through the use of biology modules based on the pictorial riddle inquiry method to increase student retention as a support for the learning process. Therefore, it is necessary to improve learning biology, especially on the subject of human motion systems in the form of using biology modules based on the pictorial riddle inquiry method as a medium and / or a student learning resource. From this explanation, it is hoped that metacognition skills can be useful in increasing critical thinking, conceptual understanding, and student creativity.
