Abstract
This study aims to analyze the differences in the science process skills between students learning with problembased learning models with character education and students who learn by direct learning models. The type of research is a quasiexperimental study design with non-equivalent pre-test and posttest control group design. The population of the study was 146 students of all grades VII at SMPN 3 Seririt in the academic year 2017/2018. The samples were taken by cluster random sampling technique. The sample consisted of two classes (VII B and VII C) with a total of 64 students. The Data were analyzed by using descriptive statistics and ANCOVA, with hypothesis testing performed at a significance level of 0.05. The results showed there were a significant difference, with a value of F = 27.766; p <0.05. in the science process skills between groups of students who learned by using problem-based learning models with the character education and those students who learned by using direct learning.
