Abstract

Abstract: This quasi-experimental research aims to identify the basic Science Process Skills (KPS) of students pre-implementing virtual experiments at SMAN 5 Pekanbaru. The instrument used was a basic KPS test in the form of multiple choices. The research stages include the preparation stage and the implementation stage. The preparatory stage includes identifying problems, formulating problems, preliminary studies, determining samples, and making a test.
