Education through learning science, especially biology, is expected to be a literate of science. This is one of the objectives of the current curriculum in Indonesia. The scientific literacy in question is the ability to use scientific knowledge, such as identifying problems and concluding based on evidence in order to understand and make decisions about nature and its changes through human activities. The purpose of this study was to see how the role of scientific literacy in learning to improve students’ reasoning and abilities in science learning. The method used is a meta-analysis, using 18 significant data and applying statistical methods to complement other objectives. This article shows that the important role of scientific literacy in science (biology) learning is the process of reasoning and understanding in making decisions about nature and is able to optimize the opportunities of learning models to be used optimally and able to organize the load of students’ cognitive theory according to their level.
