OBJEKTIF PENDIDIKAN SAINS (CHEMISTRY)
• “Malaysia needs to create a society that is scientifically
oriented, progressive, knowledgeable, having a high
capacity for change, forward looking, innovative and a
contributor to scientific and technological developments
in the future”;
and
• “science education in Malaysia nurtures a science and
technology culture by focusing on the development of
individuals who are competitive, dynamic, robust, and
resilient, and able to master scientific knowledge and
technology competency”
(PPK, KPM 2004, p.2-3)
Mengapa minat pelajar terhadap S&M merosot?
Ini fenomena seluruh dunia (OECD, 2010)
“OECD governments must take concrete steps to make science and
technology studies more attractive” - this was one of the main conclusions
from the international conference on declining student enrolment in
science and technology courses, OECD, Nov. 14-15, 2005, Amsterdam.
Persidangan itu mendapati:
• Tren enrolmen membimbangkan dalam bidang spt
Matematik, Fizik dan Kimia. Penurunan graduan universiti
sehingga 30-50% dalam masa 8-10 tahun ini;
• Young people often have stereotyped visions of S&T
professionals and their careers;
• S&T curricula are often rigid and outdated.
• Some teachers in primary or secondary education lack
adequate S&T training.
Kesan kemerosotan S&M di Malaysia?
• Sejak 2007, peratus pelajar aliran sains ialah
±29% masih berlum meningkat sehingga 2012.
Sasaran negara ialah 60% pada 2020.
• Bilangan Researcher-Scientist-Engineer (RSE):
– RSE Malaysia: 25 per 10,000 orang.
– RSE Jepun : 346 per 10,000 orang
– RSE Korea : 300 per 10,000 orang

Mengapa S&M penting masa hadapan?
• Semua perkara dalam kehidupan kita kini
bergantung kepada SMT
– Contoh: Membayar bil, mengira cukai taksiran, kos
dan perbelanjaan harian/bulanan, kenaikan harga
barangan, petrol, dsb
– Memahami aspek kesihatan dan penyakit,
pencemaran, kualiti kehidupan, makanan, dsb
– Pelru menggunakan pelbagai peralatan ciptaan baru,
semakin banyak perkhidmatan yang menggunakan
sistem elektronik/pengkomputeran/ internet dan
teknologi digital – internet banking, internet payment,
e-permohonan, portal dan blog ,
– dsb

DAPATAN KAJIAN LAIN
• Mageswari, Zurida Ismail & Norita (2007):
“kurikulum Kimia sekolah menengah GAGAL
melahirkan individu yang seimbang dari segi
JERI kerana keterlaluan penekanan diberikan
kepada teknik menghafal dan mengingat
konsep-konsep/fakta-fakta, untuk peperiksaan”.
• Pedagogi yang digunakan tidak menyumbang
kepada peningkatan kreativiti dan pemikiran
kreatif, malah pembelajaran masih berpusatkan
guru.
DAPATAN KAJIAN-KAJIAN
• Aida Suraya & rakan-rakan (2005): kaji
kebolehan pelajar universiti menyelesaikan
masalah:
• Dapatan: kebolehan pelajar adalah sederhana.
– “students do not have the generic skills in problem
solving, specifically in definition and formulation of
problems, in generation of alternatives subscale, in
decision making and in implimention and verification
of the solution”
• Projek ‘ROSE’ (Relevance of Science Education),
Malaysian students were interested in jobs that
required ‘creativity’.
Laporan Keputusan PMR oleh guru di sek X
Kelemahan yang diperhati kerana ramai gagal S&M:
• Pelajar-pelajar tidak begitu terdedah kepada format baru
peperiksaan PMR 2004.
• Kebanyakan pelajar-pelajar gagal dalam bahagian kertas 2
Sains yang merupakan 60% daripada markah keseluruhan.
Ini kerana pelajar tidak dapat menjawab mengikut teknik
yang betul, jawapan mereka tidak memenuhi kehendak
soalankerana kertas 2 berbentuk soalan subjektif.
• Kekerapan guru-guru menghadiri kursus yang diadakan
semasa waktu persekolahan menyebabkan sukatan
pelajaran tidak dapat dihabiskan lebih awal.
• Pertukaran guru yang mengajar kerana perpindahan
mungkin merupakan factor sampingan yang menjejaskan
proses P&P dan menjejaskan keputusan peperiksaan.

Mengapa minat pelajar terhadap S&M
merosot ?
Kemungkinan sebab:
1. Mismatch antara kurikulum, pengajaran dan gaya
belajar dan ciri-ciri pelajar zaman sekarang
2. Minat & PCK guru tidak mencapai tahap
3. Ibubapa & Pelajar tidak yakin dengan kerjaya S&M
masa hadapan
4. Sistem pendidikan yang lapok – masih tidak berubah,
dan tidak sensitif kepada perubahan di sekeliling dan
perubahan kepada nilai hidup generasi baru – belum
dapat tukar mind-set lama.
5. Banyak lagi faktor lain, khususnya berkaitan faktor
individu, sikap, budaya, dan keselesaan hidup.

• In this vast new electronic landscape we face a
totally different kind of student than we were
when we were in the classrooms. Indeed, today
even the definition of the classroom itself has
been revolutionized and completely redefined by
the digital age.

Presidential Award for Excellence in Science and Math Teaching. This
Science Programs consists of a team of dedicated teachers and wellqualified science enthusiasts that want to make learning science FUN!
What do you get when you mix a numerous every
day objects in some physics, and top it off with
inquisitive and energetic kids?
PERLU ADA PERANCANGAN, IDEA, DAN USAHA
OLEH GURU
• “We spent time in class learning preparing. “There was terrific energy in
the classroom - students brainstormed and discussed ideas with their
partners
• “After we made the decision to change the curriculum and begin the
year focusing on scientific method and problem-solving”
• We consider these 4 challenges:
1. Design and build a vehicle to win a 2 meter race without being
powered by human contact
2. Design and build a catapult that can launch a marshmallow the
furthest distance
3. Design and build the highest tower possible that is capable of
supporting an egg for 15 seconds.
4. Design and build a contraption that will keep and dropped egg
from breaking from three different heights.”
• “The students were totally engaged in this
project and worked collaboratively in ways
we often don’t get to observe in a typical
classroom setting,”
• “There were many instances of creative
problem-solving on the fly in order to achieve
overall success for the class.”

A Fun Science Project for the Kids
• Wednesday, February 25th, 2012
• We have the coolest science experiment for you to do with
your kids. It was inspired by the amazing teachers at Poets
school. We did this one with one of our Little Seed friends,
Paloma and she loved it. First you take celery and cut off the
ends, keeping the flowery leaves at the top.
• Science and Technology education should allow
children to explore the way our world functions and
changes.
• Students learn how to apply scientific processes and
take action in solving technological challenges.
• They learn about both natural and made environments
through the learning processes of Investigating,
Designing and Making and Using technology.

Making Science Fun
11 March 2009
Which of (if any) of these statements is true for you?
A. Science is inherently boring, and it’s up to teachers
to make it fun so kids will want to learn it.
B. Science is inherently fun, and it’s up to teachers to
avoid boring ways of presenting the matieral.
C. Science is not fun or boring. It’s just a topic we
should cover. Making it fun helps us get through the
material quicker.
• In the real wold, science is amazingly fun. Science
isn’t just doing experiments, testing hypotheses, and
taking notes (although, that can be fun indeed).
• Science is also throwing rocks in a pond and
watching the ripples. It’s looking through a telescope
and talking about the vastness of space. It’s debating
about how water could have managed to exist on our
planet. It’s making Playdoh. It’s creating pottery. It’s
cooking (thank you Alton Brown!). It’s manufacturing
(thank you How It’s Made!) It’s getting sick and
getting better. It’s composting. It’s woodworking.
YOU NAME IT!
• Science is real, and it’s everywhere. And
it’s amazing, and fun.

TERHADAP SAINS DAN MATEMATIK
Almost all young children in
almost all environments “do
science” most of the time; they
experience the world around
them and develop theories about
how that world works.
Childhood curiosity leads to real
science
• Many early childhood teachers are hesitant about
introducing science in their classrooms (because of
their unpleasant experience with science in
school).
• Science is not only plants or animals; science is
everywhere, all around us.
• Often teachers see science as some kind of magic
trick to perform. They bring out the baking soda
and vinegar to “make a volcano.” - Children may
be amazed and amused but it does not build
accurate knowledge and does not represent real
science.
HOW SHOULD YOUNG CHILDREN LEARN
SCIENCE ?
• Real science begins with child curiosity,
• This leads to exploration.
• With teachers’ help and encouragement;
leads to discovery.
• It involves three major components:
• content,
• processes, and
• attitude.
• Young children, like scientists, they need to
practice the process skills of predicting,
observing, classifying, hypothesizing,
experimenting, and communicating.
• Like adult scientists, they need opportunities to
reflect on their ‘discoveries’ -- how they
discovered/found them, and how the findings
compare to their previous ideas and the ideas of
others.
• In this way, children are encouraged to develop
the attitude of a scientist.
1. Science responds to children’s need to learn about
the world around them.
2. Children’s everyday experience is the foundation for
science.
3. Hands-on science activities let teachers observe and
respond to children’s individual strengths and needs.
4. Science strongly supports language and literacy.
Vocabulary grow as children talk about everyday
world, dan their observation with and adult.
5. Problem-solving skills of science easily enhance the
social skills of children
6. Science demonstrations help children become
comfortable in large group conversations.
7. Science connects easily to other areas, including
math, art, music, and social studies.

• I grew up afraid of science because I was given the
