Abstract

Critical thinking skills are one of the essential 21st-century competencies that students must possess, as outlined by the Indonesian Ministry of Education's competency standards for graduation. The Minister of Education and Culture Decree No. 56 of 2022, which mandates the implementation of the independent curriculum, has prompted schools to change their existing curricula. This necessitates research to provide an overview of students' critical thinking skills as developed by schools. This study aims to describe the critical thinking skills of public high school students in Makassar City in the subject of Physics. The research is a quantitative descriptive survey, with the main variable being critical thinking skills, which are measured through three indicators: analysis, interpretation, and inference. The research instrument used was a six-item essay test. The population for this study consisted of all public high school students in Makassar City studying Newton's laws of motion, specifically students from SMAN 2 Makassar, SMAN 4 Makassar, SMAN 5 Makassar, SMAN 8 Makassar, and SMAN 16 Makassar. Using purposive sampling, the sample included all students from one class at each of the five schools in the population. The results indicate that 75.50% of the students' critical thinking skills in solving physics problems fall into the low category. The specific skills in analysis, interpretation, and inference are also categorized as low. Additionally, female students demonstrated a higher ratio of critical thinking skills compared to male students. In conclusion, the critical thinking skills of high school students in Makassar City remain at a low level.

Abstract

The objective of this research is to describe students' procedural knowledge at SMAN 9 Makassar. This research is qualitative research with a descriptive approach. The subjects in this research were XI-grade students of SMAN 9 Makassar who were considered to have good physics mastery. The instruments used in this research are the researchers themselves, with additional instruments in the form of procedural tests and procedural assessment sheets for students. The data were collected from the provision of procedural test instruments with interviews and documentation. The data tested for validity is then analyzed. The results of this research show that the procedural knowledge of students at SMAN 9 Makassar in determining the quality of liquids (cooking oil) is still in the moderate category. There are 50% of respondents who are in the category. This is based on the analysis that has been carried out on the respondents’ answers. Therefore, this study implies that teachers should find more strategies to improve students’ procedural knowledge, particularly in determining liquid quality.
