Abstract
This study investigates how students' curiosity and scientific
reasoning are expressed through the use of photo journals in learning
about food additives. It aims to: (1) characterize students’ questions
and answers based on scientific inquiry practices; (2) describe
variations in the expression of curiosity among Grade VIII students;
(3) examine the relationship between individual curiosity and
scientific reasoning; (4) assess students’ levels of curiosity and
reasoning; and (5) compare outcomes between students who used
photo journals and those who did not. A mixed-methods approach
was employed with a sample of 23 eighth-grade students. Data were
collected through photo journals, interviews, questionnaires, and
classroom observations. The photo journal served as a technological
tool to encourage inquiry and reflection. Student questions and
responses were categorized into six inquiry-based types, with the
most frequent being teleological and cause-effect questions. Both
curiosity and reasoning levels were predominantly high (82.61%),
with the remaining (17.39%) falling into the medium category. The
photo journal method enhanced students’ abilities to express
curiosity and apply reasoning. The integration of visual technology
supported deeper conceptual engagement and reflection. Individual
variations in curiosity were found to be associated with levels of
scientific reasoning. While the small sample size and time constraints
limit generalizability, the study offers valuable insights into fostering
scientific literacy through media-based learning.
