Abstract

Science process skills are very important for every student as a provision to use the scientific method in developing science. Through a quasi-experimental research method with a non-equivalent control group design, this study aims to implement guided inquiry learning on the concept of carbon compounds to improve students’ science process skills. Participants in this study consisted of 30 students in the control class and 30 students in the experimental class. Students’ essay tests and worksheets were used to measure their science process skills. Hypothesis testing was carried out using the t-test independent sample t-test. The post-test average score for the experimental class was 73.46 and the control class was 44.7. The results showed that the science process skills of the experimental class differed significantly from the control class (α = 000). Designing and planning an experiment was the best skill achieved by students in both the control and experimental classes, while making a hypothesis in the experimental class and asking questions in the control class were the lowest skills achieved by students. Therefore, it can be concluded that guided inquiry learning can develop students’ science process skills with the aspect of designing and planning an experiment being the highest aspect.
