Scientific Work Independence to Support the Implementation of Science Integrated Learning at Various Education Levels
South African Journal of Education, v45 n1 Article 2402 2025
With the research reported here, we specifically aim to develop application products of scientific work independence instruments through science integrated learning (SIL) for various education levels (elementary schools, junior high schools, senior high schools, and universities). The SIL model was applied in learning to determine specific indicators for scientific work independence following learners' development through the application of the research and development methodology. Product testing was conducted in elementary schools, junior high schools, senior high schools, and universities. Based on the research results, SIL V1.0 App, an acronym for science integrated learning application, was developed based on mobile apps in the form of Android applications that may be installed on devices with Android operating systems (OS). The scientific work independence instrument was developed based on Piaget's theory, which states that the level of independence at each stage of scientific work is based on the development of children's learning psychology. The scientific work independence application has precise boundaries because it is adjusted to children's psychological development. The differences in learning independence levels occur because of the age difference.
