Multidimensional Science Education: Overview Of Philosophy Foundations (Ontology, Epistemology, Axiology)

Summary/Abstract: Science is a part of human life that has existed since the beginning of human existence, knowing himself and the natural surroundings. This study aimed to examine Dimensional Science Education based on three philosophical foundations: ontology, epistemology, and axiology. The method used in this article is the literature review method. The library sources used are books and articles that are by this article. The analysis used is content analysis. The study results show that, in essence, science is a science of natural phenomena that is poured into facts, concepts, principles, and laws that are tested for truth through a series of activities in the scientific method. The essence of products and processes cannot be distinguished or separated because they have a bound relationship with one another in conducting scientific observations so that they can form a scientific attitude. Dimensional Science Education is divided into three dimensions, namely Product Dimension (ontology), Process Dimension (epistemology), and Scientific Attitude Dimension (Axiology). These three dimensions are interrelated. It can be interpreted that science learning must include these three dimensions. Therefore, Science education contains not only formulas and theories but a process and scientific attitude to obtain scientific concepts about the universe.
