Profile of Students’ Scientific Literacy Abilities in Higher Education on Chapter Heat and Temperature
Abstract
Students’ scientific literacy is very important to determine the extent to which students are literate about
the scientific concepts that have been learned. Therefore, prospective physics teacher students must
master scientific literacy to solve various problems from the real world as individuals and must interact in
society and the environment as social beings. The purpose of this study was to analyze the scientific
literacy skills of students of the 2019 class of physics education study program on chapter heat and
temperature. This type of research used to achieve these objectives is descriptive qualitative with
qualitative analysis. The subjects in this study were Lecturers in the basic physics course I and students of
the 2019 class of physics education study program at Universitas Cenderawasih. Data collection
techniques used in this study were tests, interviews, and documentation. The results of the research from
the test instrument showed that the scientific literacy skills of physics education students class 2019 were
still low. The results of the interviews strengthen the findings that there are still many physics education
students of 2019 who do not have scientific literacy skills of concepts on chapter heat and temperature.
