Effectiveness of redox and electrochemical cell module based guided discovery learning on critical thinking skills and student learning outcomes of high school

Abstract

This study aims to reveal the effectiveness of redox and electrochemical cell modules based guided discovery learning on critical thinking skills and learning outcomes of senior high school students. This research is a continuation of Research and Development research, that is in the develop phase. The effectiveness test was carried out through quasi experiment with pretest-posttest control group design. The population of this study were all students of XII class at Public Senior High School 1 ( SMAN 1) Nan Sabaris, West Sumatra, Indonesia in 2018-2019 academic year. Samples were taken through simple random sampling technique. The research instruments used were a test of critical thinking skills and student learning outcomes. Critical thinking skills are analysed by percentage and learning outcomes with IBM Statistical Product and Service Solutions 23. This research found that the critical thinking skills were obtained at 92.8% in very high category and N-gain values of 0.72 in high category. It was concluded that redox and electrochemical cell modules based guided discovery learning were effective against critical thinking skills and improved learning outcomes of students in XII class at SMAN 1 Nan Sabaris. Therefore, redox and electrochemical cell modules based on guided discovery learning can be used in real learning in high schools to improve critical thinking skills and student learning outcomes.

“…Berdasarkan pembahasan di atas, penggunaan modul berbasis GDL merupakan salah satu faktor meningkatnya hasil belajar dan pemahaman peserta didik. Penelitian lain juga mengungkapkan pembelajaran dengan menggunakan modul berbasis GDL mampu meningkatkan keterampilan berpikir kritis dan hasil belajar peserta didik [21] .…”

Deskripsi Hasil Belajar Peserta Didik Pada Materi Yang Menerapkan Perhitungan Kimia Dengan Menggunakan Modul Berbasis Guided Inquiry

“…Penggunaan modul pembelajaran dapat meningkatkan, keterampilan pemecahan masalah, berpikir kritis dan kreatif, keterampilan proses sains serta meningkatkan motivasi peserta didik sehingga secara tidak langsung dapat meningkatkan hasil belajar peserta didik [24] . Hal ini dikarenakan adanya lembar aktivitas dan lembar kerja yang dapat memudahkan peserta didik dalam menemukan konsep dan menerapkan konsep pada materi yang sedang dipelajari [25] .…”

Pengembangan Modul Laju Reaksi Berbasis Guided Discovery Learning untuk Kelas XI SMA atau MA

“…Selain itu, pembelajaran dengan menggunakan modul guided discovery learning dirancang untuk motivasi belajar, pembinaan karakter, meningkatkan minat baca, dan mengembangkan kemampuan pengetahuan meta kognitif peserta didik [19] . Kegiatan pembelajaran dengan menggunakan modul guided discovery learning lebih variatif dan interaktif [20] , bermakna [21] , efektif terhadap kemampuan berpikir kritis [22] , dan meningkatkan hasil belajar sehingga dapat digunakan untuk pembelajaran kimia di sekolah [23] . Sedangkan, untuk modul laju reaksi berbasis guided discovery learning belum ada yang mengembangkan.…”
