- Abstract
To be able to design optimal laboratory activities at the university, it is necessary to first carry out an assessment of the profile of laboratory activities that have been conducted by students. This study aims to analyze the laboratory activity profile of chemistry students in pre-lab, lab work, and post-lab activities. A quantitative approach is used to achieve the research objectives. Research respondents were first, second, and third-year chemistry students in semesters 2, 4, and 6 (N = 89) who participated in offline practicum activities. The research data was obtained from the distribution of Likert scale questionnaires about respondents’ perceptions during practicum activities. The results of the data analysis show that students have high knowledge, experience, and a sense of comfort in pre-lab activities, but they are low in lab work and post-lab activities. Furthermore, the lowest student knowledge was shown in procedural skills (2.17) and the preparation of practicum reports (3.05), and the lowest experience and comfort were shown in practicum report preparation activities (2.16). Therefore, the design of practicum activities should focus more on training lab work and post-lab activities.
