Abstract

This research is entitled "Analysis of Nature of Models (NoM) Patterns in the Biology Student Book Class X". This study aims to determine the pattern of using the type of model and the characteristics of Nature of Models (NoM) contained in the Biology class X student book. The sample in this study was the dominant book used in SMA N throughout Magelang Regency in the class X student book. to model types and characteristics of Nature of Models. The data obtained were then analyzed using descriptive analysis. The results showed that the type of model which consisted of 8 types, the type of scale was found more, namely as much as 113 or 64% compared to other types of models. Inversely proportional to the type of mathematical model that is not found in student books. While the characteristics of Nature of Models in the illustration category, the structural model sub-category dominates as much as 72.31%, the complexity aspect of the fact sub-category dominates as much as 77.40%, the low abstraction category dominates as much as 74.01%, and all models found are in accordance with learning objectives.
