Implementation of Practical Worksheet based on Multiple Representations with Basic Science Process Skills Indicators

Practical worksheets can be used as a supporting tool in practicum activities. This worksheet is expected to help students transfer abstract knowledge to be more concrete. Practical worksheets based on multiple representations equipped with basic science process skills indicators applied to solubility practicum and solubility results. This study aimed to determine the effect of practical worksheets on basic science process skills. This practical worksheet contained material and practicum guides equipped with multiple levels of representation and indicators of basic science process skills. Before being applied to practicum activities, practical worksheets were validated in advance by material experts. Validation results stated that the practical worksheet was feasible and valid to be used in practicum activities. During the practicum, observers observed the students' basic science process skills through observation sheets. The results of observations on practicum activities showed students' basic science process skills included high criteria with 79% and 77% completeness. These results showed that the application of practical worksheets based on multiple representations equipped with indicators of basic science process skills in solubility practicum and solubility times affect the basic science process skills.
