PENGARUH PENERAPAN MODEL PEMBELAJARAN LEARNING CYCLE 7E TERHADAP KEMAMPUAN BERPIKIR KRITIS SISWA SMA

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the influence of implementation learning cycle 7e model for critical thinking skills of senior high school student on Newton's Law about motion. The population of this study is all students of class X in 1 Gedongtataan Senior High School, Lampung, Indonesia. The sample of this study was taken by purposive sampling that is as much as two classes which amounted to 64 students. The design used in this research is the non-equivalent pretest-posttest control group design. Experimental class used learning cycle 7e model and control class used problem solving model. Critical thinking skills data retrieval using a reasoned multiple choice with a total of ten questions. Enhancement analysis using calculation of Normalized Gain (N-Gain). Based on the result of this research, it was known that control class had N-gain average score in the amount of 0,59, while the experiment class had N-gain average score in the amount of 0,67. Based on hypotheses analysis showed that there was effect of implementation learning cycle 7e model for critical thinking skills of Senior High School student on Newton's Law about motion.
