Abstract

Based on this study, the learning outcomes of Catholic Religious Education (PAK) for seventh-grade students at SMP Santo Antonius Bangun Mulia Medan will be evaluated for its effectiveness using the CORE Learning Model. Over two research cycles, 26 students participated in this action research using the Classroom Action Research (CAR) method. In addition to tracking the learning process, data were collected through pre- and post-tests. Empirical evidence shows that the CORE Learning Model can significantly improve student learning outcomes. Cycle I obtained an average post-test score of 88.2, while Cycle II obtained an average post-test score of 96.3. Compared to the previous average pre-test scores of 63.3 and 89, these figures indicate progress. These findings are consistent with previous research showing the effectiveness of the CORE Learning Model in increasing student engagement and academic performance. The conclusion of this study is that the CORE Learning Model can serve as a tool to enhance student learning outcomes in PAK and promote the development of more engaging and effective teaching strategies. This research aims to assist academics and educators in developing innovative and effective teaching methods.

Abstract

Critical thinking skills are vital for students' intellectual development. This article examines the importance of critical thinking in education, focusing on factors influencing students' abilities and effective learning methods to enhance them. The study evaluates students' critical thinking abilities before and after using the Probing-Prompting learning model at Santo Antonius Bangun Mulia Middle School, Medan. This model was chosen for its ability to stimulate thinking processes and develop critical thinking skills. Key indicators for measuring critical thinking abilities, such as analysis, evaluation, inference, explanation, and skepticism, are discussed. The article also explores internal and external factors affecting these abilities. The Probing-Prompting model is described as stimulating students' thinking through a series of problem-solving questions, detailing the interactions between teachers and students. The research, conducted through classroom action research (PTK) with two cycles, involved 26 class VII students. Results show an increase in students' critical thinking abilities after implementing the model. These findings aim to contribute to theoretical understanding and offer practical benefits for educators to improve education quality.
