Analysis of critical thinking skills of junior high school students on vibration and wave materials

This study aimed to analyze the relationship between scientific literacy and students' critical thinking skills in biology science material in junior high schools. The research used a quantitative correlation method. The subjects in this study were the students in the eighth grade of junior high school SMPN 9 Buton consisted of 68 people. The research instrument was in the form of multiple choice questions to measure scientific literacy skills and essay questions to measure students' critical thinking skills. The research data obtained were then analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics through the product-moment correlation test. Results of descriptive statistics show that literacy science and student critical thinking there in four criteria excellent, good, enough, and low. The inferential statistic analysis results show that the significance value of the correlation between scientific literacy and critical thinking skills is 0.001 less than the alpha value of 0.05. Based on the results can be concluded there is a positive and significant correlation between scientific literacy and students' critical thinking skills in the circulatory system material.

Giving educational stimulation in early childhood can be given through games. Traditional science-based games make an important contribution to supporting children's development. This study aimed to identify traditional games in Central Lombok Regency that can be played in early childhood and how to play traditional games to improve children's development. This research is survey research conducted at Central Lombok Regency. This research uses observation data collection methods, interviews, and documentation. The subjects of this study were six community leaders or cultural leaders and five teachers. Data analysis used descriptive qualitative analysis. The results showed that there were 28 identified traditional games. After being reviewed and verified based on the criteria for tools and materials used: playground, gender, age of players, number of players, and how to play, 23 traditional games were obtained: fort, bekel, ciwe, cepun, do mi gift, merchandise, long dragon snakes, marbles, playing rope, pese-pese'an, temeong-meong, gobak sodor, trumpets, cingkaleng, manuk brackets, splashing, temong-meong, school stones, playing moon, cupring, segem, playing war and coffee. Traditional games use tools, do not use tools, and use poetry/songs. How to play traditional games each game has steps similar to each others. Based on these criteria, traditional games can indirectly improve child development such as cognitive, language, social-emotional, religious and moral values, physical-motor, and artistic.

The low level of students' critical thinking ability makes students need help understanding science concepts. The application of an interactive learning model can be a solution to this problem. This research aims to analyze the effect of the Generative learning model on the critical thinking ability of 7th graders in Environmental conservation Materials. The research method used is the Quasy Experiment method carried out in class VII junior high school SMP Mutiara Insani Tangerang. Students' critical thinking abilities are measured by a written test instrument in the form of essay questions made according to indicators of critical thinking ability that have been adjusted as many as ten questions tested for validity and reliability. The selected experimental class comes from a population that is normally distributed, has a homogeneous variance, and has the same mean. The research results show that the experimental class with the Generative Learning model and the control class with the Discovery Learning model are normally distributed. Hypothesis testing is done by t-test, and the significance level is based on the results of the Posttest; there is a significant influence of the Generative Learning learning model on the critical thinking ability of class VII students. In conclusion, the Generative Learning Learning Model affects the Critical Thinking Ability of 7th graders Students in Environmental Conservation material.
