THE CORRELATION BETWEEN ATTITUDE TOWARD SCIENCE AND COGNITIVE LEARNING RESULT OF STUDENTS IN DIFFERENT BIOLOGY LEARNINGS

This research was conducted during one year in three different classes that were taught biology by using three different learnings, Inquiry-based learning, Thinking Empowerment by Questioning integrated with Inquiry learning (TEQI), and Scientific learning. This study investigated the correlation between attitude toward science and cognitive learning results in the three different learnings, and compared the three regression lines whether or not they are parallel. The results of this study show that the correlations between attitude toward science and cognitive learning results in the three biology learnings are significant, with the value of contribution as much as 0.634, 0.448, and 0.708 respectively. The results of the analysis of variance related to the regression equation in the three different learnings are parallel and do not coincide; the regression line of TEQI strategy is at the highest position. It indicated that TEQI strategy has the advantage of training attitude toward science and simultaneously increases students' cognitive learning results.
