PENERAPAN METODE PEMBELAJARAN REFLECTIVETHINKING DENGAN PENDEKATAN BERORIENTASI PERTANYAAN DAN BRAINSTORMING PADA MATA KULIAH MEKANIKA
Abstract: Technology is
developing very fast nowadays. It creates so many effects - wether the effects
are posssitive effects or negative effects. College students should have the
ability to choose, analyze, and filter the technology and its development so
that it affects their lifesinpossitiveway. Because of that, college students
should have the critical thinking skills so they can solve any kinds of
problems in theirlifes. In Mechanics, college students need to develop their
ability to think how to solve the problems of the evironments. The purpose of
this research is to know and compare the activism and the critical thinking
skillsof the college students after they implemented the Reflective Thinking
learning method with an appproachment that oriented in question and
brainstorming in Mechanics. The method of this research is quasi experimental.
The sample of this research is college students of the Physics Education
Program in first semester of the 2015/2016 school year that were learning
Mechanics. The research was done in two classes,wich in each class was given a
learning with Reflective Thinking. Class A with an appproachment that oriented
in questions and class B with brainstorming. Observation was done to know the
level of the activism and the critical thinking skillsof the college students.
The result of each class was compared to another class so we could knowwich
class that showed the greatest level of the activism and critical thinking
skills of the college students.Based on research, we could conclude that the
level of the critical thinking of the students in Reflective Thinking learning
method with an appproachment that oriented in question is higher than the
students in critical thinking skills learning method with an appproachment that
oriented in brainstorming. Meanwhile the level of the activism of the students
in Reflective Thinking learning method with an appproachment that oriented in
brainstorming is higher than the students in Reflective Thinking learning
method with an appproachment that oriented in question
