摘要：This study is specifically designed to measure the effectiveness of Contextual Teaching
and Learning (CTL) on the students’ scientific attitude and achievement in Natural
Science among Junior school students in Pekanbaru, Indonesia. This quasi experiment
involved some 215 Form VII students from three public schools, segregated based on
their existing cognitive abilities. The CTL materials was developed by applying RANGKA
strategy. Overall, the findings revealed that there is significant difference exist across
experimental groups in terms of students’ achievement. However, there is no
significant difference in terms of scientific attitude. These findings contribute significant
implications for the enhancement of scientific thinking skills among various students’
capabilities and different categories of school. Contextual teaching strategy is found
appropriate in achieving the above dimensions in heterogeneous schools. This is due
to the fact that the RANGKA contextual learning strategy as developed in this study
focuses on the right way for students to learn.
