Abstract

The critical learning model is a learning model based on social constructivism. This study aims to develop a valid, practical, and effective learning model to improve students' critical thinking skills. The basis for the development of this learning model is that students are not actively involved in the PBL model because the problems are not relevant to students' lives, so the researcher developed a critical learning model that emphasizes the implementation of problems presented relevant to students' lives. This study uses the RnD research method, which refers to the ADDIE model. The research respondents included 2 expert validators, practitioners, and students of SMAN 9 Makassar. The development of the model produced a critical learning model syntax consisting of managing; directing; guiding and probing; explaining; and assessing; with purposive sampling at SMAN 9 Makassar class XII 5 Biology Interest. The results showed that the learning model met the validity criteria with a very high category (0.85), practicality with a practical category (83.98%), and effectiveness with a moderate category (0.67) so that the critical learning model is valid, practical, and effective in improving students' critical thinking skills. The results of field trials have proven that they can improve students' critical thinking skills.

Abstract

Chemical abstraction ability is an important thing to analyze because it is closely related to the cognitive style of students. This ability is suspected as an ability that affects learning achievement. This study aims to obtain information about the correlation between the ability of chemical abstraction with student learning achievement on Chemical Bonding material in class XI IPA 2 SMAN 2 Kampar. This research is a correlation research using descriptive quantitative method. Purposive sampling technique was used in this study. A total of 23 students of class XI IPA 2 were sampled in this study. Observation sheets, subjective tests in the form of essay tests, interviews related to students' chemical abstraction abilities are instruments in this study. The results showed that there is a significant relationship between the ability of chemical abstraction with student learning achievement on the material of Chemical Bonding in class XI IPA 2 SMAN 2 Kampar. This can be seen from the rxy which is greater than the rtable at a significant level of 5% and 1% with df n-2 (0.708 > 0.433 and 0.708 > 0.549). Ha is accepted and H0 is rejected. The results of this study indicate that students' chemical abstraction ability is in the low category, so further research needs to be done to improve students' chemical abstraction ability and learning achievement.

Abstract

Chemistry learning, particularly in atomic structure, faces challenges due to its conceptual nature and difficulty in observation. Traditional teaching methods, which often render students passive, exacerbate this issue and hinder critical thinking skill development. To address this, a digital teaching module based on problem-based learning (PBL) was developed and designed for easy accessibility anytime and anywhere. This module promotes interactive learning centered on real-world problems, significantly enhancing students' critical thinking abilities. This study employs a research and development (R&D) approach using the ADDIE model (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, Evaluate). The analyze stage involved observing the needs of high school chemistry teachers. The design stage included planning materials, creating the module design, and developing assessment instruments. The development stage involved quality evaluations by material experts, media experts, and high school chemistry teachers. Evaluation results showed highly positive feedback, with an ideal score of 93% from material experts, 91.67% from media experts, and an average score of 90.21% from five chemistry teachers, all classified as very good. The module is considered effective and offers an alternative approach to teaching atomic structure. Future studies are recommended to advance this module to the implementation phase, as this research has only reached the development stage.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of Macromedia Flash-based animation media within the Discovery Learning model on the learning outcomes of Grade XI MIPA students at MA Manongkoki, Takalar Regency, in the subject of Chemical Bonding. The research used a quasi-experimental design with a quantitative approach and employed a posttest-only control group design. The sampling technique was random sampling. The study population consisted of all three Grade XI MIPA classes, with XI MIPA 1 as the experimental group and XI MIPA 2 as the control group. A multiple-choice test was used as the research instrument to collect data on student learning outcomes. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive and inferential statistics. The descriptive results showed that the experimental class achieved a higher average score (83.92) than the control class (71.08). Inferential statistical analysis indicated that the data were not normally distributed; therefore, the Mann-Whitney test was used. The analysis yielded a Zcount value of 3.11, which was greater than the Ztable value of 1.65. Based on these results, it can be concluded that Macromedia Flash-based animation media within the discovery learning model has a significant positive effect on students’ learning outcomes in chemical bonding.

Abstract

Practical work is an essential part of science learning because it provides students with hands-on experience to deeply understand concepts. To determine its effectiveness, a case study was conducted at SMPN 3 Siak Hulu with 60 students through questionnaires and observations. The results showed a significant gap: students' perceptions of practical work were in the "very good" category with an average score of 89.9%. However, observations indicated that hands-on laboratory practice was rarely conducted and was often replaced by teacher demonstrations. This gap is caused by various obstacles such as teacher competencies that do not match their scientific background, limited facilities, and suboptimal time management. Therefore, further research needs to focus on developing solutions such as teacher training programs, measuring the quantitative impact of minimal practical work on students' scientific skills, and expanding the study to a larger scale to validate whether this phenomenon occurs generally.

Abstract

Teaching IPAS material on the human digestive system in grade V of elementary school (SD) faces obstacles because the abstract concept of digestive organs is difficult for students to understand without concrete media. This research developed the Interactive Educational Snakes and Ladders (LANTERA) media that meets the criteria of being feasible, practical, and capable of improving students' cognitive learning outcomes based on Bloom's Taxonomy (C3–C6). The method used is Research and Development (R&D) with the ADDIE model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, Evaluation). The research subjects were 33 grade V students of SDN 1 Purwogondo using a total sampling technique. Research instruments included observation guidelines, interviews, expert validation sheets, pre-test and post-test questions, as well as teacher and student response questionnaires. Validation results showed the media met the feasibility criteria with a score of 96.43% from media experts and 84.5% from material experts. The increase in learning outcomes was measured using N-Gain with an average of 0.6187 (medium category), with a distribution of 48.5% of students in the high category, 39.4% medium, and 12.1% low. Teacher responses reached 98% and student responses 92.6%, indicating very high practicality. LANTERA media is proven to be able to improve cognitive learning outcomes through the integration of visualization, gamification, and collaborative learning, so it can be an alternative for game-based learning for abstract material in elementary schools.
