Abstract

Early childhood science education plays an important role in developing a range of skills, including critical thinking, problem-solving, and a basic understanding of natural phenomena. However, science intructuin in higher education particularly in Early Childhood Teaher Education (PGPAUD) programs still often relies on convensional approaches that do not actively engage student. Therefore, this study aims to increase students involvement in the learning process so that they develop analytical and critical thinking skills and are better able to connect theory with real-world practice. The LENTERA learning model was designed to enhace student engagement in learning science for childhood education. Through a seven-stage learning syntax known as the 7 steps (introducing the problem, reviewing theory, proposing hypotheses, collecting data, analyzing data, drawing conclusions, and respoting result), this model is expected to improve students understanding of science concept as well as their pedagodical competence. This study employed a research and development (R&D) method focused on assessing the practicality of the LENTERA learning model. Practicality was evaluated using the Criterion-Referenced Assessment (PAP) and the result indicate that the model achieved a high practicality score
