Abstract

Purpose of the study: Assessment of students' critical thinking skills and environmental care attitudes is crucial for science learning. This research aims to develop an essay test instrument for critical thinking and a questionnaire for environmental care attitudes, evaluating their validity through expert assessments and trials. Methodology: Utilizing the Research and Development (R&D) model by Oriondo & Dallo-Antoio (1998), the study comprises three stages: test planning, trials, and validation. A random sampling technique was employed, involving 267 students. The critical thinking instrument consists of essay questions, while the environmental care attitudes are measured using a prosocial intentions questionnaire. Main Findings: Validity results indicate a high Aiken index of 0.96 for critical thinking essays and 1.0 for the environmental care questionnaire. Reliability estimates were 0.73 for critical thinking and 0.71 for environmental attitudes, both good. The difficulty level for the critical thinking instrument was classified as medium (0.68), while the environmental care instrument was deemed difficult (1.65). Limitations include focusing solely on science subjects, trials restricted to one area, and reliance on self-reports for environmental attitudes, which may introduce bias. Novelty/Originality of this study: The novelty of this study lies in integrating critical thinking assessment with environmental care attitudes, a rare approach in previous research. In conclusion, the developed instruments effectively measure students' critical thinking skills and environmental care attitudes in science education, particularly regarding global warming.

Abstract

Cultivating an environmental care attitude among students is essential to support sustainable development and environmental protection. This study aims to explore junior high school students’ environmental care attitudes within the context of science learning on global warming. A quantitative descriptive design was employed involving junior highschool students. Data were collected using a validated questionnaire with a prosocial intention scale covering four indicators: energy saving, waste management, carbon emission reduction, and environmental care. Descriptive statistical analysis was used to determine the mean and percentage of each indicator. The results revealed that the overall level of students’ environmental care attitude was 78% (good category). Among the indicators, energy saving (86%) and environmental care (89%) were in the very good category, while waste management (65%) was categorized as adequate and carbon emission reduction (73%) as good. These findings indicate that students show strong awareness of energy use and cleanliness but limited responsibility for waste processing and reducing emissions. It is recommended that science learning be integrated with practical environmental education programs to strengthen students’ green mindset and sustainable behaviors in daily life.
