PENGGUNAAN MODEL PEMBELAJARAN INKUIRI TERBIMBING UNTUK MENINGKATKAN HASIL BELAJAR PESERTA DIDIK

Penelitian ini dilatar belakangi oleh rendahnya sikap rasa ingin tahu dan hasil belajar peserta didik pada Subtema Makananku Sehat dan Bergizi yang pencapaiannya hanya 35% peserta didik yang tuntas memenuhi nilai KKM. Selain itu pendidik masih menggunakan metode atau model pembelajaran yang bersifat teacher centered, yaitu model ceramah.Pelaksanaan yang dilakukan peneiti yaitu dua siklus dan setiap siklus terdiri dari 3 pembelajaran.Model Pembelajaran yang digunakan peneliti yaitu inkuiri terbimbing, pengertian dari inkuiri terbimbing merupakan model pembelajaran yang memberikan kesempatan kepada peserta didik untuk aktif terlibat dalam proses pembelajaran dengan melakukan penyelidikan dan pemecahan masalah secara mandiri namum tetap dengan bimbingan pendidik agar peserta didik lebih mudah dalam memahami konsep pelajaran. Subjek penelitian ini adalah siswakelas IV D SDN Leuwipanjang dengan jumlah peserta didik sebanyak 35 orang. Instrument pembelajaran yang digunakan adalah berupa tes, lembar observasi (observasi pendidik dan observasi peserta didik), LKPD (Lembar Kerja Peserta Didik) dan lembar angket. Hasil penelitian dengan menggunakan model pembelajaran inkuiri terbimbing ditunjukan dengan perencanaan setiap siklusnya yang mengalami perbaikan berdasarkan hasil refleksi di siklus sebelumnya. Pelaksanaan pembelajaran dengan menggunakan model pembelajaran inkuiri terbimbing dapat dilihat dari aktivitas pendidik dan peserta didik pada setiap siklusnya yang mengalami peningkatan. Pencapaian hasil belajar afektif mencapai 44% pada siklus II mencapai 80% dan kognitif peserta didik pada siklus I mencapai rata-rata 35% Siklus II ketuntasan 80%. Adapun hasil belajar psikomotor peserta didik di siklus I mencapai ketuntasan 36%. Siklus II mencapai mencapai ketuntasan 88%. Ambatan yang dilami oleh peneiti yaitu alokasi waktu dan pengelolaan kelas, Upaya yang dilakukan peneliti adalah mengatur pelaksannaan pembelajaran sesuai dengan rencana yang kita persiapkan dengan baik dan mengatur suasana kelas dengan menyenangkan yaitu membuat media pembelajaran yang baik sehingga daapat menarik minat belajar peserta didik. Kata Kunci : Inkuiri Terbimbing, rasa ingin tahu, hasil belajar peserta didik, hambatan pelaksanaan, upaya peningkata

Dynamics of Decadal Climate Variability and Implications for its Prediction

The temperature record of the last 150 years is characterized by a long-term warming trend, with strong multidecadal variability superimposed. The multidecadal variability is also seen in other (societal important) parameters such as Sahel rainfall or Atlantic hurricane activity. The existence of the multidecadal variability makes climate change detection a challenge, since Global Warming evolves on a similar timescale. The ongoing discussion about a potential anthropogenic signal in the Atlantic hurricane activity is an example. A lot of work was devoted during the last years to understand the dynamics of the multidecadal variability, and external as well as internal mechanisms were proposed. This White Paper focuses on the internal mechanisms relevant to the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation/Variability (AMO/V) and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation/Variability (PDO/V). Specific attention is given to the role of the Meridional Overturning Circulation (MOC) in the Atlantic. The implications for decadal predictability and prediction are discussed

Metaphoric coherence: Distinguishing verbal metaphor from `anomaly\u27

Theories and computational models of metaphor comprehension generally circumvent the question of metaphor versus “anomaly” in favor of a treatment of metaphor versus literal language. Making the distinction between metaphoric and “anomalous” expressions is subject to wide variation in judgment, yet humans agree that some potentially metaphoric expressions are much more comprehensible than others. In the context of a program which interprets simple isolated sentences that are potential instances of cross‐modal and other verbal metaphor, I consider some possible coherence criteria which must be satisfied for an expression to be “conceivable” metaphorically. Metaphoric constraints on object nominals are represented as abstracted or extended along with the invariant structural components of the verb meaning in a metaphor. This approach distinguishes what is preserved in metaphoric extension from that which is “violated”, thus referring to both “similarity” and “dissimilarity” views of metaphor. The role and potential limits of represented abstracted properties and constraints is discussed as they relate to the recognition of incoherent semantic combinations and the rejection or adjustment of metaphoric interpretations

Parameterized vertex deletion problems for hereditary graph classes with a block property

For a class of graphs P, the Bounded P-Block Vertex Deletion problem asks, given a graph G on n vertices and positive integers k and d, whether there is a set S of at most k vertices such that each block of G − S has at most d vertices and is in P. We show that when P satisfies a natural hereditary property and is recognizable in polynomial time, Bounded P-Block Vertex Deletion can be solved in time 2O(k log d)nO(1), and this running time cannot be improved to 2o(k log d)nO(1), in general, unless the Exponential Time Hypothesis fails. On the other hand, if P consists of only complete graphs, or only K1,K2, and cycle graphs, then Bounded P-Block Vertex Deletion admits a cknO(1)-time algorithm for some constant c independent of d. We also show that Bounded P-Block Vertex Deletion admits a kernel with O(k2d7) vertices. © Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany 2016

The Norwegian Earth System Model, NorESM1-M – Part 1: Description and basic evaluation of the physical climate

The core version of the Norwegian Climate Center's Earth System Model, named NorESM1-M, is presented. The NorESM family of models are based on the Community Climate System Model version 4 (CCSM4) of the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research, but differs from the latter by, in particular, an isopycnic coordinate ocean model and advanced chemistry–aerosol–cloud–radiation interaction schemes. NorESM1-M has a horizontal resolution of approximately 2° for the atmosphere and land components and 1° for the ocean and ice components. NorESM is also available in a lower resolution version (NorESM1-L) and a version that includes prognostic biogeochemical cycling (NorESM1-ME). The latter two model configurations are not part of this paper. Here, a first-order assessment of the model stability, the mean model state and the internal variability based on the model experiments made available to CMIP5 are presented. Further analysis of the model performance is provided in an accompanying paper (Iversen et al., 2013), presenting the corresponding climate response and scenario projections made with NorESM1-M

Exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction: natural history and effect of surgical treatment

The current follow-up study concerning the supraglottic type of exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO) was performed to reveal the natural history of supraglottic EILO and compare the symptoms, as well as the laryngeal function in conservatively versus surgically treated patients. A questionnaire-based survey was conducted 2–5 years after EILO was diagnosed by a continuous laryngoscopy exercise (CLE) test in 94 patients with a predominantly supraglottic obstruction. Seventy-one patients had been treated conservatively and 23 with laser supraglottoplasty. The questionnaire response rate was 70 and 100% in conservatively treated (CT) and surgically treated (ST) patients, respectively. A second CLE test was performed in 14 CT and 19 ST patients. A visual analogue scale on symptom severity indicated improvements in both the groups, i.e. mean values (± standard deviations) declined from 73 (20) to 53 (26) (P < 0.001) in the CT group and from 87 (26) to 25 (27) (P < 0.001) in the ST group. At follow-up, ST patients reported lower scores regarding current level of complaints, and higher ability to perform exercise, as well as to push themselves physically, all compared to CT patients (P < 0.001). CLE scores were normalized in 3 of 14 (21%) CT and 16 of 19 (84%) ST patients (Z = −3.6; P < 0.001). In conclusion, symptoms of EILO diagnosed in adolescents generally decreased during 2–5 years follow-up period but even more after the surgical treatment. Patients with supraglottic EILO may benefit from supraglottoplasty both as to laryngeal function and symptom relief
