Hubungan Antara Kemampuan Membaca Kritis Dalam Pembelajaran Penemuan Dan Kemampuan Berpikir Kritis Siswa

Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan hubungan antara kemampuan membaca kritis bacaan sains yang disisipkan dalam pembelajaran energi di kelas dengan keterampilan berpikir kritis siswa sebagai keterampilan yang dituntut pada abad 21. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian korelasional (deskriptif). Populasi pada penelitian ini adalah siswa kelas VII pada salah satu SMP di Kota Cimahi dengan sampel penelitian sebanyak 35 siswa kelas VII tahun pelajaran 2014-2015. Kegiatan membaca kritis disisipkan dalam pembelajaran selama tiga kali pertemuan. Data kemampuan membaca kritis dijaring oleh jawaban siswa melalui pertanyaan dalam bacaan, sedangkan keterampilan berpikir kritis dijaring dengan tes uraian. Kedua data tersebut dianalisis dengan uji korelasi Spearman. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara kemampuan membaca kritis dengan kemampuan berpikir kritis siswa pada α=0,05 (sig. 0,047), namun hubungan tersebut berada pada kategori rendah (r=0,339). Dengan demikian, kamampuan membaca kritis perlu dilatihkan atau diterapkan karena memiliki hubungan dengan kemampuan berpikir kritis siswa.

The method used is correlational research (descriptive). The population in this study was the seventh grade students at one junior high school in Cimahi with a sample of 35 students of class VII 2014-2015 school year. Critical reading activities inserted in the study during three meetings. Data of critical reading ability was captured by the students' answers from questions in the reading sheet, while critical thinking skills data was enmeshed with the essays question. Both of these data were analyzed by Spearman correlation test. The results showed that there was a significant correlation between critical reading ability with the students' critical thinking at α = 0.05 (sig. 0.047), but these relations are at a low category (r = 0.339). Thus, critical reading ability need to be trained or applied as it has a relationship with the students' critical thinking.

Analysis of Language Literacy Skills in Biological Learning Contexts

“…In comparison, this integration aspect is part of a high level of thinking ability that combines new information and knowledge that has been possessed to build and connect further information (Priyatni, & Nurhadi., 2017). Nevertheless, when noted, this happens because reading habituation can stimulate high-level thinking ability and affect learning outcomes (Muttaqiin & Sopandi, 2015). Therefore, learners can form a broad understanding of the readings presented.…”

“…Although this indicator is considered the most difficult, if the learner has good literacy through habituation and fondness for reading, it can improve the ability to think highly in evaluating a text. According to Archambault (Muttaqiin & Sopandi, 2015), contextual readings have an advantage because these types of readings contain a certain amount of information related to experience. Pisa's question in this indicator also measures what is already known by what learners can do from their knowledge.…”

“…Similarly, the PISA assessment score (OECD, 2013), that the lowest score based on three aspects of language literacy competency was on reflect and evaluate with a score of 4 points because this competency is the highest cognitive level that uses advanced cognition to integrate ideas and information by giving arguments and explanations in context. As it is said, Muttaqiin & Sopandi, (2015), that reflecting and evaluating is a high level of thinking ability that requires habituation of HOTS-based learning (higher-order thinking skills). As for efforts to increase high levels of thinking in learners, according to Jones (Muttaqiin & Sopandi, 2015), that reading activities can stimulate high-level thinking ability.…”

Creating Critical Literacy Skills For Young Learners At Primary School

“…In addition, research showed that there was a significant positive relationship between reading and critical thinking; critical reading skills will help students to practice critical thinking. In order to understand the whole information given, the students will think critically while analyzing and evaluating text in the process of reading [8]. After successfully getting the information, they will take a side and make contradictions for testing the validity of the information, whether it is suitable for the current situation.…”

Metode Directed Reading Thinking Activity (DRTA) dan tingkat berpikir kritis dalam menyunting artikel ilmiah mahasiswa

“…Several studies have shown that reading skills have a relevant relationship with critical thinking (Sariyem, 2016;Muttaqiin, 2015). Therefore, the selection of learning methods needs to pay attention to the level of the students' critical thinking.…”
