Abstract

Science process skills are mostly researched in previous studies, but specifically for students in Papua, these skills have not become the main focus to be fostering. Inquiry learning is present as alternative learning to train students' process skills. The research aims to foster the student process skill through inquiry science learning implementation. The research was a quasi-experimental method. Non-equivalent control group design was used. Data was collected using process skill tests. N-gain and independent t-test were used for data analysis. It was revealed that the process skill of student in the inquiry-based learning class was better compared to students in the conventional class (p <0.05). Science inquiry-based learning is better fostering science process skills indicator, that is observing, formulate a problem, formulate a hypothesis, and communicating. It can be concluded that for fostering student process skills, inquiry-based science learning is the right choice. it is better compared with conventional learning. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
