Implementation of the Socio-scientific Issues Approach with the Investigative Group Learning Model to Improve Students' Critical Thinking Skills on Environmental Change Materials

Abstract

This study aims to determine the effect of the socio-scientific issue approach with the investigative group learning model on the critical thinking skills on environmental change. This study uses a quasi-experimental method with a pretest-posttest control group design. The research population is the students of class X IPA SMAN 1 Batu Sopang, Paser Regency, East Kalimantan, in the academic year 2020/2021. The samples were class X IPA 1 (experimental group) and X IPA 2 (control group) . The test instrument used is a written test. The average pre-test and post-test of the experimental class increased by 15.86, while the average value of the pre-test and post-test of the control class increased by 8.62. the two classes have a difference of 7.24. The N-Gain test result for the experimental class is 0.33, including the medium category and the control class is 0.20, including the low category. The results of the independent samples t-test are sig. 0.08 < 0.05 and t count 2.740 > 1.99, meaning that H0 is rejected. Based on the study results, the socio-scientific approach to issues with the investigative group learning model proved to be more effective in improving students' critical thinking skills than conventional learning models

Efektivitas Model Pembelajaran Pdeode Berpendekatan Ssi Terhadap Peningkatan Keterampilan Berpikir Analitis Peserta Didik

“…Pendekatan pembelajaran yang digunakan penelitian ini merujuk pada pendekatan pembelajaran yang dicetuskan oleh Zeidler et al, (2005) dimana pendidikan SSI bertujuan guna memicu serta meningkatkan kemajuan intelektual individu dalam etiket dan etika serta pemahaman akan saling ketergantungan antara sains dan masyarakat. Potensi pendekatan SSI terhadap peningkatan komunikasi, kemampuan intelektual, dan sikap sosial (Aisya et al, 2017) (Rosana, 2020) (Jariah & Aminatun 2022).…”

“…Kemampuan menemukan fakta yang relevan memiliki indikator dengan nilai rata-rata N-gain 0,59 dan dikategorikan cukup efektif, sedangkan kemampuan menemukan persamaan dan perbedaan suatu objek memiliki indikator dengan nilai rata-rata 0,52 dan dikategorikan cukup efektif. Relevansi sains dalam kehidupan siswa dapat terfasilitasi dengan baik oleh pendekatan SSI (Gutierez, 2015) (Jariah & Aminatun 2022). Implementasi pendekatan SSI memungkinkan siswa mampu mengeksplorasi konten sains dan memfasilitasi permasalahan dunia nyata kemasyarakatan (Rostikawati, 2016).…”

Does student's critical thinking and collaboration skills can empower through investigation and thinking learning strategy?

“…Research by Silva et al,( 2023), states that the GI model influences students' critical thinking skills and creative thinking skills. Jariah & Aminatun (2022), research findings thatthe socio-scientific approach to issues with the GI learning model proved to be more effective in improving students' critical thinking skills than conventional learning models. The research conducted is different from other studies, in this study using investigative and thinking learning strategies, namely the GITTW strategy where the TTW syntax is integrated into the GI syntax.…”

Case Method in The Problem-Based Learning Model to Increase Student Participation in The Basic Physics Course

“…Previous research has found that implementing the problem-based learning model can increase student participation in school, with various subjects and learning materials (Dian et al, 2017;Kamala et al, 2022). Furthermore, other research also shows that the use of problem-based learning models can improve scientific literacy (Yani et al, 2020) and critical thinking skills in students (Aufa et al, 2021;Jariah & Aminatun, 2022;Khairunnisa et al, 2022;Rahmadita et al, 2021;Yana et al, 2022). Norman states that there is no strong evidence that learning strategies using PBL produce general improvements.…”
