Abstract

Learning is a scientific process, therefore learning should be carried out in accordance with scientific methods, in the curriculum of 2013 known as a scientific approach. In learning, a scientific approach consists of five activities, namely: observing, asking questions, gathering information, associating and communicating. The results of a study of junior high school science teachers in Padang who attended The Curriculum of 2013Implementation training on June 23-27, 2014, showed that most of the natural science teachers were not able to apply the questioning activities in learning. The questioning activity is very important to develop students’ critical thinking skills, as well as a benchmark for the activities of gathering information, associating and communicating. Learning science goal is to practice problem solving skills. Problem solving skills are important to have by students because they are related to the ability to solve daily problems by applied science concepts. The steps of problem solving are similar to the scientific method. The stages of problem solving consist of planning; obtaining data; data organizing; analyzing data; generalizing data. The process at the planning stage is to identify problems, formulate problems, and formulate hypotheses. The planning stage equals the inquiry stage in the scientific approach. Implementation of problem solving is supported by student books, Student Worksheets, and learning media, therefore the teacher becomes easier to apply including activities to formulate problems and submit hypotheses (ask questions).
