One of the factors that influence students' learning competence is self-efficacy. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between self-efficacy and Biology learning competence of students in class XI MIPA SMAN 1 Hiliran Gumanti. The method used is descriptive correlation using the Spearman rank formula. The results showed that there was a correlation between self-efficacy and Biology learning competence of students with a value of r=0.477 and tcount which was 3.4321 which was greater than t table, which was 2.0218. So, it can be concluded that there is a significant and positive relationship between self-efficacy and Biology learning competence of students in class XI MIPA SMAN 1 Hiliran Gumanti.

However, there is still limited data about preservice teachers’ perception about it. Therefore, the aim of this study is to describe teachers’ perception about Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) education. This study is a descriptive research using survey method. The data were collected through questionnaire. The collected data was analyzed by using percentage technique. The result shows that there is positive perception among the preservice teachers about STEM education and they are agree of implementing it to educational curriculum in Indonesia.

The benefit of STEM Literacy is that it makes students more skilled in all areas including science, technology, mathematics, and engineering. In ad- dition, STEM literacy can also make students improve their critical thinking skills and become crea- tive, logical, innovative, productive and relate directly to real conditions. This study aims to analyze the needs of students' STEM literacy achievement assessment in learning biology. The type of research used is descriptive, with data collection techniques carried out by conducting observations and inter- views. The results showed that biology learning has been implemented based on STEM literacy, stu- dents are still less enthusiastic in reading, students are more interested in learning related to technol- ogy, teachers do not know the assessment of students' STEM literacy achieveme...

Not only can it affect the curriculum being taught, but it will also lead to the changes of the methods and approaches in conducting the lesson. One of the changes is the use of digital learning. Universitas Negeri Padang has regulation of conducting lesson through e-learning platform proportionally for all courses, including the course of Ordinary Differential Equation. Ordinary Differential Equation is a mandatory course that should be taken by mathematics department’s students. In order to support students to develop their under standing about the concept and its application while using digital learning method, the researchers develop some tutorial video as supplementary media. Therefore, this study aimed to describe the practicality of the tutorial video. This is a descriptive research where the data were collected using closed q...

The part-whole relation concept is important for students to reason about multiplication of fractions. Realistic Mathematics Education which is in Indonesia adapted as Pendidikan Matematika Realistik Indonesia (PMRI) is used as an approach in designing a series of lessons. For this purpose, hypothetical learning trajectory (HLT) became the base for conducting a teaching experiment and designing its learning materials. The research was conducted in the fifth grade of SD Al Hikmah Surabaya, an elementary school in Indonesia, with five students as the participants. The collected data were qualitative data in the form of students’ written works and the transcript of video recording during the lesson. The data were analyzed retrospectively by confronting the conjecture of students’ thinking in the HLT ...

We might use the SDT point of view to get more insight about motivation in education terminology. Within SDT motivation is classified regarding to its quality and quantity and based on the study by Vansteenkiste et al. (2009) the good quality motivation- high autonomous and low controlled motivation- give a significant influence in improvement of students’ learning outcomes. Therefore, in the classroom of mathematics teachers need support the emergence of the autonomy of the students. Supporting students and improve their motivation towards science especially mathematics, the author believes that there is a correlation between the roles of teacher and students’ motivation. If the teacher designs an adequate teaching and learning activity for the learning process, the students’ interest will increase. Thus, using a good context, which is selected by contextual teaching strategies, can be a go...

The method used are giving lecture and discussion. The result show that there was an improvement of the understanding of the participants about leadership and student activists' contribution.
