CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS IN INTEGRATED SCIENCE LEARNING VIEWED FROM LEARNING MOTIVATION
Abstract: The study aimed to
determine the effect of Predict Discuss Explain Observe Discuss Explain and
Small Group Discussion strategies toward critical thinking skills and the
influence of learning motivation toward critical thinking skills. This study
was a quasi experiment with the non-equivalent pretest-posttest design. Data
were analysed by inferential statistics of two way analysis of variance and
regression analysis. The results showed that Predict Discuss Explain Observe
Discuss Explain and Small Group Discussion strategies were influential toward
critical thinking skills and the average of students critical thinking skills
using Small Group Discussion strategy was better than those experiencing
Predict Discuss Explain Observe Discuss Explain strategy. Furthermore, learning
motivation were also influential toward critical thinking skills. Students
having high learning motivation were better than students having low learning
motivation. Regression analysis showed learning motivation and critical
thinking skills have positive correlation. Influence of learning motivation
toward critical thinking skill was about 6.4%.
