Profile of students' critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration skills on environmental pollution material

Abstract

This research was conducted to describe the profile of students' critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration skills in science learning on environmental pollution material. This research uses a descriptive quantitative research method. The population in this study was all students of class VII, 300 students in total. The sample was taken by using purposive sampling technique with a total of 30 students. The instruments used in this study were a test (multiple choice questions and essays) and a non-test in the form of a questionnaire. The results showed that the critical thinking skill of students is in the low class in average, the creative thinking skill of students is in the low class, and the collaboration skill of students in the low class. The results of this study can be used as material for teacher evaluation, especially science teachers so that they can pay attention to the learning process and facilitate students with the use of appropriate models and strategies and the availability of teaching materials and media that can practice these three skills.
