55 discussion and ask the students to state their argument. Therefore, there are some
other ways to make the students have willingness to ask. If the participants could not make the students active in the class, it means that their capacity on making
students active was still poor.
B. The Implications of the Problems faced by the Respondents
This part discusses the implications of the problems faced by the respondents in implementing Scientific Approach during Practice Teaching
Program. Moreover, this part consists of two parts, namely internal factors and external factors.
1. Internal Factors
All of the respondents had got the courses related to the teaching practice and its administration. Therefore, they had got the basic knowledge of 2013
Curriculum and Scientific Approach. They have learnt those knowledge in Learning Program Design LPD course. Even before joining Practice Teaching
Program, they have joined Micro Teaching course. In this course, they implemented the theories from the previous courses in the teaching practice.
Therefore, if the have passed both LPD and Micro Teaching courses, they should have been ready when joining Practice Teaching Program. On the other hand, the
study found that the respondents had lack of knowledge of the approach and the curriculum.
“Scientific Approach cuma pernah diajarkan aja sih, jadi cuma tahu sekilas aja tapi cuma aplikasinya yang bener-bener diaplikasikan baru
waktu PPL aja.”Gs PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI
56 “Scientific Approach was only explained in that time, so I only know it
for a bit. Then, I implement the approach seriously just when I joined Practice Teaching Program
” Gs
It could be implied that the respondents had lack of practices eventhough they have had the principles of Scientific Approach. It made them face some
problems in implementing Scientific Approach. Moreover, in order to have better capacity on making students active, the respondents should also practice directly.
They could practice outside the class by teaching other classes, or practice with friends on how making students active. If they do not have chance to practice in
Micro Teaching class, it will make them face problems in making students active when they do Practice Teaching Program.
The misconception problem can appear because the respondents did not have good understanding of the concepts. They implemented all of the stages in
Scientific Approach in the real class situation eventhough they have not understood the concepts yet.
“Sebenarnya saya tidak begitu paham tentang Scientific Approach, saya hanya mengetahui bahwa pendekatan ini digunakan pada K.13
” Aw “Honestly, I do not really understand about the concepts of Scientific
Approach. The thing that I know is that this approach is used in 2013 Curriculum.
” Aw
It implies that the respondents are not ready yet to implement the approach or even join the Practice Teaching Program. It is because they did not read much
about the related approach or curriculum used in the Practice Teaching Program and they still implemented them in the class. Therefore, it causes misconception.
57 Hence, the problem can also appear because the respondents were over confident
and thought that they have mastered the concept well, so that they did not read the related concepts.
