“…Semakin tinggi kemampuan siswa dalam penalaran ilmiah, miskonsepsi siswa lambat laun akan semakin berkurang (Acar, 2014), dan akan membangun konsep ilmiah yang benar (Ya & Hsiao, 2009). Proses pemecahan masalah dalam pembelajaran fisika ada banyak kesamaan dengan penerapan dari penalaran ilmiah (Tajudin et al, 2012). Selain itu, ada korelasi antara kemampuan penalaran ilmiah dengan prestasi belajar siswa (Acar, 2014).…”

This study was aimed at producing and examining the effectiveness of physics learning kit of inductive thinking model which is reasonably to increase students’ data representations and scientific reasoning skills. This research uses R&D methods with 4D models that consists of define (need analysis of learning), design (designing the product draft), develop (expert appraisal, product field testing, and product revising), and disseminate (disseminating final product). The physics learning kit of inductive thinking model which is developed consists of syllabus, lesson plan, handout, worksheet and skills assessment sheet. The data were analyzed using the descriptive statistics, N-Gain analysis, multivariate test statistic Hotelling’s T2 and effect size analysis. The result of this research produced the physics learning kits of inductive thinking model which is reasonably used to increase students’ data representations and scientific reasoning skills with very good category based on experts, teachers and response of students. The learning kit is effective to increase students’ data representations and scientific reasoning skills significantly by effect size analysis with f = 0.180 for data representations skills and f = 0.115 for scientific reasoning skills.PENGEMBANGAN PERANGKAT INDUCTIVE THINKING UNTUK PENINGKATAN KEMAMPUAN REPRESENTASI DATA DAN PENALARAN ILMIAHAbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan untuk menghasilkan dan menguji efektivitas perangkat pembelajaran fisika model inductive thinking yang layak dalam meningkatkan kemampuan representasi data dan penalaran ilmiah siswa SMA. Penelitian menggunakan metode R&D dengan model 4D yang meliputi tahap define (analisis kebutuhan pembelajaran), design (perancangan draf produk), develop (penilaian ahli dan guru, uji coba produk, revisi produk), dan disseminate (penyebarluasan produk akhir). Produk perangkat pembelajaran fisika model inductive thinking yang dikembangkan ini terdiri dari silabus, RPP, handout, LKS dan lembar penilaian kemampuan. Teknik analisis data menggunakan statistik deskriptif, analisis N-Gain, uji statistik multivariat Hotelling’s T2 dan analisis effect size. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perangkat pembelajaran fisika model inductive thinking layak digunakan dalam pembelajaran dengan kategori sangat baik berdasarkan penilaian ahli, guru, dan respons siswa. Perangkat yang dikembangkan efektif dalam meningkatkan kemampuan representasi data dan penalaran ilmiah berdasarkan analisis effect size dengan nilai f=0,180 terhadap kemampuan representasi data dan f=0,115 terhadap kemampuan penalaran ilmiah.

“…The transfer of students' past mathematical knowledge is only achievable with the development of higher-order thinking abilities. The study of higher-order thinking abilities might advance existing knowledge of the processes involved in the search for solutions in light of recommendations for greater emphasis on creativity, evidence development, and logical reasoning (Lester, 2013;Tularam, 2013, Tajudin & Chinnappan, 2017. The brain is trained and prepared for reasoning and critical thinking through mathematics.…”

The study's goal is to assess students who are enrolled in postsecondary mathematics in terms of their achievement and mathematical reasoning skills. Most experts think that for students to study mathematics, they must possess the ability to reason since solving problems in mathematics demands it. The achievement has a bearing on this since it is important for the school and the instructors to be aware of the academic performance of the pupils in various subject areas to track their progress. A student's accomplishments aid the instructor in determining their rank. The idea that mathematics is the most difficult subject has made learning the subject quite challenging. The ability of mathematics to reason is one significant component of mathematics that many overlook. Mathematical reasoning is crucial for success in the sciences, humanities, and other fields that rely on it. The current study examined math achievement and thinking skills. 228 students served as the study sample for this investigation. The design is expo facto. To direct the study, two research questions were established. According to the study, students' achievement is influenced by mathematical thinking. Additionally, female students outperform male students in math and courses closely related to mathematics.
