摘要:Inquiry approach is important to improve understanding of science concept. In order to look at the effectiveness of inquiry based learning, Lesson Study approach was employed. This study used 7E inquiry learning model to teach Year 5 students about life process in animal topic. The open lesson was observed by fellow educators and academicians. From the result of observation and reflection, there found a few features of inquiry that was conducted by students during the learning process such as: 1 ) making an observation, 2 ) engage in questioning, 3 ) obtain and use relevant information, 4 ) propose answers, description or anticipations about a situation, 5 ) communications, 6 ) lower-order thinking skills (LOTS) , and 7 ) higher order thinking skills (HOTS). This study implied that lesson study approach helps teachers plan how to integrate the inquiry in their teaching while the implementation can be further revaluated by other teachers to improve inquiry-based lesson so that it could be carried out successfully in the context of students’ learning.
