2.    Student are able to makes dichotomous key to classified objects of biology

Teaching Materials

An identification or classification key is the most frequently used tool to identify plants or animals, especially for those who do not have reference specimens. Here identification is done step by step because every key has different determination abilities. There are keys to identify specimens up to level of familiy, genus, or even species.

An identification key is usually dichotomous, so it called dichotomous key. It is an identification key where someone has follow the path determined by the order of the choice. There are two alternatives to every choice (so it is like a choose-your-own adventure book).

Dichotomous key consist of numbered lines of couplets that form stanza. Every stanza consists of two lined called a guide. A guide consist of two opposite characteristic and is marked by a letter. Those characteristics are arranged properly to let users choose one option out of two in each set of opposites. Eventually, an answer will be derived based the collections of the object characteristics.    

 

The making of identification key based on figure is as follows :

1.        a. Single Leaves ....................................................................        2

b. Compound Leaves ............................................................       4

2.    a. Linear Leaves ...................................................................        grass

       b. Wide Leaves ....................................................................        3

3.    a. Serrated leaf margins .......................................................          Hibiscus Plant

       b. Smooth leaf margin ..........................................................         Potato Plant

4.    a. Leaf having 7 leaflets .......................................................          Kapok Tree

       b. leaf having more than 7 leaflets .......................................           5

5.    a. Leaflets on petiole .............................................................        Mahogany Tree

       b. leaflets on petiolule ............................................................        Peacock Flower

Teaching and Learning Process

Time Allocation : 15 Minutes

Teaching and Learning Process	Time (Minutes)	Life Skills Aspects that Developed
Pre-Teaching 1.    Greeting and Asking Students Condition 2.    Recall matery about the function of classification   3.    Stating the Topic and Objectives	2
While Teaching 1.    Teacher lecturing about the principle in classification and concept of dichotomous keys 2.    Students make 2 group (each groups consists of 3-4 students) 3.    Teacher give students many of leaves 4.    Student work in group to classify the leaves based on similarities and differences 5.    Students do assignment in group based on student worksheet. 6.    One group present their result of leaves classification. 7.    Teacher give confirmation	8	1.      Classify Biology Object 2.      Analyses 3.      Braveness
Post Teaching 1.    Teacher make conclusion from learning process 2.    Teacher evaluate with give question about the principle in make classification and dicothomous key. 3.    Giving assignment to make classification and dichotomous key other living organisms based on similarities and differences.	5

Assessment

Instrumen  to assess the process of making classification based on dichotomous key.

Numb.	Aspect To Assess	Result
		Yes	No
1	Each group gives label in leaves
2	Each group can decided the characteristics similarities or differences to make dichotomous key correctly
3	Each group makes dicotomous key correctly
4	Each group makes leaves classification correctly
5	One group present their leaves classification
