DIAGRAM VEE SEBAGAI MEDIA DALAM MENGEMBANGKAN KEMAMPUAN BERPIKIR KRITIS SISWA PADA PEMBELAJARAN BIOLOGI

Abstract

In facing the challenges of the globalization era, it is necessary to have the role of human resources who have the ability to think critically to solve problems with abstract thought processes and arrange them in an effective way of solving. Biology learning as part of science learning has an important role in improving the quality of education and producing quality students, namely humans who are able to think critically, creatively and logically.
