Empowering Student’s Metacognitive Skill Through Cirsa Learning

Abstract

Metacognitive skill is the process of thinking about thinking, process of developing self-awareness, the ability to self-assess and how to learn and solve the problems at hand. An important dimension to the metacognitive process is the knowledge of thinking skills in planning, regulating, and evaluating an academic task. Metacognitive skill can be trained using a learning model, one of which is Cirsa, a learning developed by integrating a CIRC-based scientific approach. This study aims to measure and know the effect of Cirsa learning on students’ metacognitive skill. The research method used is quasi-experiment using pretest-postest nonequivalent control group design. The study involved 248 students, 8th grade on Biology subject at MTS Al Hidayah Citaringgul Bogor as the research sample. The development of metacognitive instrument refered to MAI (Metacognition Awareness Inventory). The results showed that Cirsa learning model had an effect on the students’ metacognitive ability with the sig value. of 0,000. Cirsa learning proved superior to CIRC (Cooperative Integrated Reading and Composition) and conventional learning on human digestive and excretory system topics. Teaching Biological topics with a scientific approach is a demand in the K-13. Therefore, the authors suggest teachers to develop students’ metacognitive skill with Cirsa learning which emphasize on reading and scientific-based activities.

Edmodo mobile: developing e-module biology cell for online learning community

“…For example, Edmodo mobile has to develop for students. It is in line with a statement from Pratiwi, Hidayah, & Martiana (2013) and Djamahar, et al, (2019) that to improve learning quality in higher education institutions, one of the ways is by teaching material development strategy, such as learning module. More innovative new strategies using information technology are vital to support proper learning implementation.…”

“…This course learning activities performed merely through theoretical lecture must be optimized; so that it is following graduate achievement required in the course (Hanik, 2016;Juliana, et al, 2016;Saptono, et al, 2013). Learning should be designed as best as possible to achieve learning objectives (Darmawan, Brasilita, Zubaidah, & Saptasari, 2018;Djamahar, et al, 2019;Lestari, Ristanto & Miarsyah, 2019a). One of the improvement solutions is the development of a teaching material that supports learning activities (Dewi, Nilawarni, & Rusdi, 2015;Ichsan, Rusdi, Sartono, 2017;Supriyatin & Ichsan, 2018).…”

Improving HOTS in Biology Learning: A Supplement Book of Plant Growth and Development

“…Meanwhile, if we see the smallest increase occurring in the first indicator regarding analyzing the factors inhibiting plant growth and development. This indicates that this book has not generated much data that can make students analysis power increase significant [32,33].…”

Pengembangan MILEA (Media Pembelajaran Interaktif Matematika Menggunakan Software Lectora Inspire) Untuk Meningkatkan Hasil Belajar Siswa

“…Keberhasilan guru dalam proses belajar mengajar ditentukan oleh beberapa faktor (Darmawan, et al, 2019;Djamahar, et al, 2019). Peranan dan kreatifitas seorang guru menjadi salah satu faktor penentu keberhasilan tersebut (Ristanto, Zubaidah, Amin, M., & Rohman, 2018).…”
