Development of Student Worksheets (LKPD) Based on Critical Thinking Skills Environmental Change and Waste Recycling Materials

Abstract

Critical thinking skills are one of the main competencies to be achieved in learning. Critical thinking skills can be taught through various methods, such as integrating through student worksheets (LKPD).Observations on the use of LKPD conducted at SMA Negeri 1 Parepare showed that the LKPD used did not support the development of students' critical thinking skills. In this regard, it is necessary to develop worksheets based on critical thinking skills.This study aims to produce worksheets that integrate critical thinking skills.This type of research is research and development (R&D) by adapting the learning development model from Thiagarajan known as 4-D namely defining, designing, developing, and disseminating. However, the development results in this study are only at the develop stage, namely only producing student worksheets based on critical thinking skills. Based on the results of the validation analysisobtained the average value of the total validation is 1,with a valid interpretation. The results of the teacher's questionnaire analysis obtained a total average value of 96% with very practical interpretations and student questionnaire analysis obtained a score of 85.11% with very practical interpretations. Thus a based LKPD has been producedSkills think critically on the basic competencies of environmental change and waste recycling for class X SMA that are valid, feasible and practical. LKPD development based on critical thinking skills is recommended to continue to be developed on other basic competencies so that students are trained to use their critical thinking skills.

Preliminary Study on Critical Thinking Skills of Learners in South Sumatra Related to Climate Change (Global Warming)

“…Therefore, it is necessary to improve the thinking skills of high school students in South Sumatra on global warming material. Critical thinking skills are needed for students (Alharbi, 2022), solutions that can be done to improve critical thinking skills such as the use of appropriate learning models (Yaki, 2022), appropriate learning methods (Xhomara, 2022), the use of teaching materials (Oikonomidis and Sofianopoulou, 2023), the use of LKPD (Net et al, 2023) and the use of technology in the form of interactive media (Alqahtani and Alsalem, 2023). Renewable technologies such as augmented reality are the use of new technology, especially in global warming material that can provide an accurate picture to create interactive learning (Hazaymeh and Alomery, 2022).…”
