ABSTRACT
The aim of this research was to examine high school students' attitudes about socioscientific issues contextualized in inquiry-based chemistry instruction. The research was conducted on high school students studying chemistry in two different schools in Indonesia. The researchers first taught the chemistry subjects through inquiry-based instruction contextualized by socioscientific issues and then conducted the research. Sequential explanatory design, one of the mixed-method research approaches, was used to conduct the research. Quantitative data was collected from 71 students using questionnaire (R= 0.828), followed by collecting qualitative data using semi-structured interview from 8 selected students. The data was analized descriptively. The results of the study revealed that high school students had positive attitudes about socioscientific issues contextualized in inquiry-based chemistry instruction for all attributes of interest, perceived ability, value and commitent.
