Abstract

Implementation in the era of the 21st-century revolution requires development, knowledge, and skills, with the hope that students are able to think critically and creatively, as well as solve problems and build collaboration together. The purpose of this study is to determine the profile of the driving teacher and the form of development of students' critical thinking skills using the Discovery Learning model in Grade V elementary school students. The research method uses qualitative research, while the data collection technique is conducted through interviews. The results of this study indicate that the driving teacher plays an important role as a facilitator who encourages active, independent, and experience-based learning. They use strategies such as group discussions, trigger questions, and reflection to guide students to find solutions independently. This is in line with the Discovery Learning model, which is designed to improve students' critical thinking skills. The application of the Discovery Learning model shows positive developments in students' critical thinking skills, especially in analysis, evaluation, and problem-solving. Students are more open to different opinions, although self-reflection and creativity need to be improved in some students. In addition, students also show a better understanding of cultural concepts through this approach.

Abstract

Studi ini meneliti peran kepemimpinan guru dalam mengembangkan keterampilan berpikir kritis melalui penerapan pembelajaran berbasis penemuan (discovery learning) di sekolah dasar. Menggunakan metode tinjauan pustaka kualitatif, penelitian ini mengevaluasi literatur yang relevan mengenai kontribusi pemimpin guru sebagai agen perubahan dalam lingkungan pendidikan. Temuan utama menunjukkan bahwa kepemimpinan guru secara signifikan memfasilitasi pembelajaran berbasis penemuan, yang mendorong siswa untuk berpikir kritis dan mandiri. Tantangan seperti keterbatasan waktu, sumber daya, dan kesiapan baik dari guru maupun siswa sering kali menghambat keberhasilan pendekatan ini. Studi ini menyoroti pentingnya kebijakan pendidikan yang mendukung inovasi pedagogis, yang sangat penting untuk meningkatkan kualitas pembelajaran di sekolah dasar. Implikasi teoretisnya berkontribusi pada literatur tentang pemberdayaan guru dan pengembangan keterampilan berpikir kritis, sementara implikasi praktisnya mendorong adopsi pembelajaran berbasis penemuan secara lebih luas. Rekomendasi mencakup penguatan pelatihan kepemimpinan guru dan penyediaan sumber daya yang lebih baik untuk sekolah dasar. Penelitian lebih lanjut disarankan untuk mengeksplorasi implementasi empiris pembelajaran berbasis penemuan dan mengembangkan model pelatihan yang lebih efektif untuk pemimpin guru.
