The Validity and Effectiveness of the Reflective-Metacognitive Learning Model to Improve Students’ Metacognition Ability in Indonesia

Abstract

Purpose - This study investigated the content and construct validity of the Reflective-Metacognitive Learning (RML) Model, and the effectiveness of the RML Model in comparison with Cognitive-Metacognitive Learning (CML) Model in improving students’ metacognitive knowledge, skills, and awareness after the learning process. Methodology - This experimental study began with developing the RML Model, which covered planning, development and evaluation. A focus group discussion involving four experts in science education was conducted to determine the validity of the RML Model and its supporting devices in terms of content validity and construct validity. An experimental study using a randomized pretest-posttest control group design was then implemented on forty senior high school students to evaluate the effectiveness of the RML Model against the CML Model. Data were analyzed descriptively and statistically. Findings - The results showed that the RML Model was highly valid in terms of content validity and construct validity, Metacognitive knowledge increased to a high degree, while metacognitive skills and awareness increased to a medium degree. Based on the results, it was concluded that the RML Model was valid and more effective than the CML Model in terms of improving students’ metacognitive ability. Significance - The RML Model, which is marked by the reflection of thinking processes as the core, is expected to improve students' metacognitive ability.

Designing Calculus Teaching Model Based on STEM for University Students: Is It Valid, Practice, and Effective?

“…This calculus learning model was declared valid based on two experts' assessment with an average total score of 3,385. In general, the validation test is carried out on two aspects, namely content validity and construct validity [53]. In this study, content validity is the type of validity chosen to assess a learning model's components based on cutting-edge knowledge.…”

The Validity and Practicality of Pancasila and Civic Education Learning Model Based on Local Wisdom

“…The criteria for practicality consisted of four groups: very valid, valid, less valid, and invalid. The range of scores used in this validity test is based on the range of scores used by Muhali et al [40] in his research. In detail, the range of scores is presented in table 2.…”

Pengaruh Implementasi Model Creative Problem Solving terhadap Peningkatan Kemampuan Pemecahan Masalah, Keterampilan Proses Sains, dan Kesadaran Metakognisi Peserta Didik

“…Kesadaran metakognisi melibatkan pengetahuan tentang kognisi dan pengetahuan tentang regulasi kognisi (Muhali, 2018). Pengetahuan tentang kognisi meliputi pengetahuan deklaratif, pengetahuan prosedural, dan pengetahuan kondisional, sedangkan pengetahuan tentang regulasi kognisi meliputi perencanaan, monitoring, strategi manajemen informasi, perbaikan strategi, dan evaluasi (Muhali et al, 2019). Pengajaran konsep sains menuntut peserta didik untuk terampil menyelesaikan setiap permasalahan pembelajaran melalui serangkaian keterampilan proses untuk mendapatkan pengetahuan dan regulasi secara utuh.…”

“…Instrumen tes kemampuan pemecahan masalah dan lembar penilaian keterampilan proses sains telah dilakukan uji kelayakan oleh validator ahli dan diperoleh bahwa sebesar 94,44% dan 84,09% indikator mencapai kategori sangat valid, sehingga kedua instrumen tersebut sangat layak digunakan dalam pembelajaran dengan model CPS untuk mengukur kemampuan pemecahan masalah dan keterampilan proses sains. Instrumen angket kesadaran metakognisi yang digunakan merupakan instrument MAI (metacognition awareness inventory) menurut Schraw & Dennison (1994) yang diadaptasi oleh Muhali et al (2019) dan telah diujicobakan serta dinyatakan valid dan reliabel. Instrumen tersebut terdiri dari 52 butir angket yang terbagi ke dalam 8 indikator yaitu: (1) pengetahuan deklaratif, (2) pengetahuan prosedural, (3) pengetahuan kondisional, (4) perencanaan, (5) memonitor, (6) strategi manajemen informasi, (7) perbaikan strategi, dan (8) evaluasi.…”
