DISCUSSION

IV. Summary
Understanding Philosophy of Science Education
General philosophy has objects: (1) the nature of reality everything (metaphysics), which
includes the nature of reality as a whole (ontology), the reality of nature or the cosmos
(cosmology), the reality of man (humanologi), and the reality of God (theology ) :( 2)
determine the nature of reality (epistemology) :( 3) the nature of deducing knowledge of
kenyataaan (Logic): and (4) the nature assess kenyataaan (Axiology), among others, about the
nature of values related denngan good and evil (Ethics) as well as the value associated with
the beautiful and ugly (aesthetics).

Understanding Science Education

Science education is a system of knowledge about the education obtained through
riset.Teori-substantive theory in education, for example with respect to theories of teaching
and learning activities in the formal school environment. One aspect of teaching and learning
is a method mengajar.Para theorists and practitioners of the past until now trying to develop
an effective teaching method.

Objects formal Education

Objects formal science education, which can be interpreted as a vast, narrow, and wide
terbatas.Dengan Thus, there is no direct limit the time course of education. Education takes
place at the age of five, ages of children, adolescence, and adulthood or life of every human
being itself. Additionally, in the sense of immensity, the venue for education is not limited to
one particular type of environment in the form of schools, but it takes place in all forms of the
human environment.

Material object Education

Educational activities are activities that bridge the gap between the actual conditions
with ideal conditions. Educational activities take place in a certain time and shaped in a
2
variety of educational process, which is a series of activities or steps are used to change the
initial conditions of the learner as input, into ideal conditions as hasilnya.Kegiatan education
can also take place outside of both types the educational unit, which is in the environment in
general, for example, in a group of friends (peer group), in the ethnic group (subculture), as
the manager of the group, a group of drivers, group of pedicab drivers and so on.

Methodology of Science in general before the 19th century

The scientific method in problem solving is an informal application in reflective
thinking, which consists of recognizing the problem, hypothesis formulation, data collection,
analysis, and conclusions. Research is more systematic series of activities focused on the
discovery and development of a figure of organized knowledge.

Science methodology in general: 19th and 20th centuries

The development of the concept and practice of scientific methodology from the
beginning until today a source of inspiration for the development of the methodology of
education. In other words, the dynamic development of the methodology of science in
general affects directly and indirectly to the development of methodological concepts used in
constructing the figure of Education as we know it today, both in terms Axiological
epistomologis and science.

Methodology of Science Education: Qualitative Research

Qualitative research is a collection of problem-solving methods were planned and
carefully with the design is quite loose, data collection software, and langsung.Desain
qualitative research is growing (evolving), supple (flexible), and public (general).

Methodology of Education: Quantitative Research

Implementation of quantitative research conducted in the form of a programmatic or
systematic quantitative measurement. Some characteristics of these measurements, namely
(1) the measurement carried out on scales: ordinal, interval and ratio data are generated in the
form of numbers, in other words, no quantification: (2) measurements were performed using
instrument proper (valid), trustworthy, and operation through a process of
instrumentalization.

the content and methods of potential pendidikan.Secara science can also help improve the
knowledge and confidence in us, both as an educational expert practitioners or theorists as
well as education (educators and education managers).

education managers in carrying out their duties. These concepts are developed Education,
with regard to how the process of managing and implementing educational practices
established. Thus these concepts are principles about management practices and educational
activities (educators).
