Pengaruh Penerapan Model Pembelajaran Sains Teknologi Masyarakat (STM) Terhadap Hasil Belajar Biologi Siswa Kelas X SMA Negeri 3 Boyolali Tahun Pelajaran 2012/2013

Abstract

The rapid development of science and technology in the 21st century requires students to think critically, creatively and highly a positive attitude towards science, society, and possess initiative correspond to issues resulted by the impact of science and technology’s application.
