"Argumentation Of Senior High School Students On Physics Instruction Based Inquiry"

Abstract

Argumentation as the one of important skills must be included in the science learning. With argumentation skills, students can show their opinion include evidence and justification logically. Argumentation is important for students, but it seldom integrate in physic learning based inquiry.
